SPRING ARRIVED TO THE MADISON OPERA PERFUMERY BUDAPEST

Posted by www.rollinginbudapest.com in Uncategorized. Tagged: , , .

Remembering the first layer is the fragrance which she wears .

Even though the calendar says we have entered the official season of spring it still a bit late. Anyway, here is a couple new scents from Madison Opera Perfumery’s offer as to keep in mind to freshen up your looks for the spring to come. The Madison Opera Perfumery has just stepped into her 5th anniversary, opened at the District VI., 26, Andrássy Avenue, Budapest.

MADISON … offers its visitors its exclusive fragrances … its less known cologne and unique perfumes, also spicing up your home with fragrances, and other beauty gems.

Bond no. 9 – Manhattan … is an after-hours shared scent with a high seduction quotient. Officially it belongs in the oriental gourmand category, rich in spices—some of them very new to the oriental repertory. Its pace is set by a mélange of top notes: mouth-watering nutmeg … worldly saffron, evoking dried flowers … delicate coriander seeds—softened with the addition of luscious, mouth-watering peach. The heart notes continue the gourmet theme, as sweet honeycomb, made from the nectar of flowers, mingles with black plum, hinting of chocolate, and a warm and inviting gingerbread accord. Moroccan jasmine, the sole flower at the center of this scent, itself evokes the aura of peaches or ripe bananas. Then comes the lingering dry down: Creamy, velvety-smooth sandalwood; rich, balsamic patchouli; a soft and warm vanilla infusion; and unapologetically sensual, skin-like musk.

Bond no. 9 – New York Musk …  In a virtuoso performance, New York Musk displays its versatility when surrounded by contemporary fruit and spice accents. It opens with lightness and buoyancy: a blend of sparkling grapefruit flower, tart and tangy blackcurrant, and galbanum—a pine-like aromatic gum resin from Persia. Then come the mid notes, reinforcing that theme: Asian Osmanthus flower, recalling peaches and apricots, combined with lemony-green lilies—yes, flowers that smell like fruits—while spiking this mix is spicy nutmeg. Musk comes into play in the base notes, as it usually does, surrounded by its lingering cohorts, those willing conspirators in seduction, patchouli, sandalwood.

Byredo – Bullion  … Bullion by Byredo is a limited edition Woody Spicy fragrance for women and men, that has been heavily inspired by Middle East. Top notes are pink pepper and plum; middle notes are Osmanthus, leather and magnolia; base notes are dark woodsy notes, sandalwood and musk.

Byredo – Inflorescence … To celebrate the beginning of spring, nature’s perennial and powerful rebirth, Ben Gorham (Founder and Creative Director of BYREDO) envisaged a wild garden and a floral scent that would capture the strength and beauty of its blossoms, just as they reach their dramatic peak. The result, the wonderfully entitled Inflorescence, is an Arcadian stroll through untamed bowers of full-blown, rambling roses, interspersed by the intoxicating, honeyed notes of pink freesia in their prime. Two of Spring’s very first flowers lie at the heart; the creamy-soft allure of the Magnolia blossom, its petals fully open about to drop onto beds of quivering Lily of the Valley or ‘May Bells’ –in the language of flowers, symbolic of a ‘return to happiness’ and the joy associated with the onset of spring. Finally, and most unusually, Ben has used Jasmine at the base, again luxuriant and overgrown, a veritable riot of fresh sweetness that supports the structure and furnishes a heady close.

The Madison Perfumery’s cosmetic and make-up specialists, Ms. Kinga Odorán and Ms. Orsolya Székely will be pleased to introduce these womanish spices and body cares.  To get an appointment just give a call +36)1 269 20 16 on the store’s local telephone number. Address: District VI., 26, Andrássy Avenue, Budapest.

LEGENDARY PUSKÁS, RETURNED TO HIS NATIVELAND, EVEN IF IT IS PRESERVED AS A WORTHY SCULPURE COMPOSTION

Posted by www.rollinginbudapest.com in Uncategorized.

Óbuda inaugurated the world’s legendary Golden Team football player Ferenc Puskas, first public statue depicting the full figure.

Dozens-and-dozens of Puskás’s fans came along on Thursday, March, 27. to Óbuda (one of the districts in Budapest) to see and celebrate the erected, one-and-only full-length of body statue of Puskás, the legendary football player of all times. Within the celebrating audience were representatives such as: Ministers, Deputy Lord Major of Budapest, Óbuda’s major, rep. district’s self governments, reps. of parliament, Hungarian Ferenc Puskás Football Academy’s elementary school students, Real Madrid, Academy of Hagi, Greek – Panathinaikos, Australia – Melbourne’s Football Institute junior boys were present as well.

Lady Erzsébet (Puskás called her as „Böbe”) the widow of Puskás and Mr. György Szepesi, sport reporter unveiled the statue. Böbe was fighting hard to hold back her tears. Before getting to turn to speak to the audience she placed her right arm cuddling her husband’s left arm and placed her left palmhand into Puskás’s left hand and gently spoke to “him” … “You see, here I am my sweet dear, I miss you so much and hope your spirit feels my everlasting love for you. See(?) how many people came along to see you and to show their love for you right now.” thereafter turned to the audience saying how grateful she is for the attendees to pay tribute to the memory of her husband.

Mr. György Sepesi, aged 92, said he is so honored to be present at this memorial  day, despite having to have been together with Puskás and to have had seen him on the grounds in the early days playing football. I immediately saw he is going to be a rolling, shooting star with his golden feet. Mr. Szepesi’s  one of the stories was  …”There was a boxing match to be held in Madrid in 1963 with the legendary Hungarian boxer Mr. László Papp to be in the ring. Papp told Puskás he was down, disappointed having to know that there will not be any Hungarian fans cheering him when fighting in the ring. Puskás, had already a thought mind.  Went to Mr. László Kubala, playing at the time being football in Barcelona and it was decided they will “bribed” 100 Catalan individuals and teach them how to say  in Hungarian „Go for it”, Go ahead Papp” in order to support, cheer their Mate.  So this was Puskás!” Even in the freezing cold weather, spraying rain and the length of the given time made him short Mr. Szepesi stories were really appreciated by the freezing audience. He added at the end „I could speak for 90 minutes about Puskás. I am use to that length, cause that was the my broadcasting time on-air at the footy games.” There was a laugh in the audience, cause many elder folks were present and remembered him broadcasting football games on-air.

Indeed, Óbuda is very proud now which is deeply understandable to give space and to host the sculpture of Puskás. The statue formation stands on the Bécsi Rd. and soon the space will be called from „Puskás Square”. From now on not just for the Hungarians will be a place to worthwhile visiting the promenade, take snaps at the scene, but for the foreigners around the world who for one reason know where you are from whenever you say your from Hungary, immediately they say … yes „Puskás”. He was, still is a symbol to Hungary. Puskás is and will be a role model for all young people. He was an excellent athlete and a great person.

Óbuda-Újlak Community Association President Mr. György Hatházi and Mr. Sándor Barna, owner of the Symbol Restaurant and other private catering establishments of the district, private shops and service providing individuals gave their support in creating a spectacular group of statues which is copied from an old photo taken in the streets of Madrid, where kids were playing „football” and as Puskás stepped close to them  showed them how to keep a hold to their ball. So at the Puskás pedestrian anyone can see in a way the picture coming alive within the awesome artistic statue composition. The idea owner was the avant-garde fine artist Mr. Gyula Pauer (gone ahead), Kossuth Prize-winner. The statue composition survived in his legacy. The sculpture was finally composed by Mr. David Tóth.

Puskás was a member of the Hungarian national team, Kispest AC and the Budapest Honvéd and Spanish Real Madrid’s classic, and later on at the Greek Panathinaikos as coach accumulating success. The Puskás Academy of invitees for the third time will be included the Constanta Hagi Academy. This year for the first time to take part at the tournament will be a non-European club’s players, namely the  Melbourne’s Football Institute.  Puskás worked at a local club  with the Melbourne team as a coach between 1989 to 1991.  Puskas was extremely popular in Australia, where it has grown by leaps and bounds being the coach of the number of viewers at championships and cups were  won.

In memorial a stamp was connected to this event was presented by the Hungarian Post of Ferenc Puskás, the worldwide known football player’s 80th anniversary.

Puskás’s career for the youth all over the world is a pure example as football taught humility and set an example for generations.

HERALD NEWS  …

During the 9 days at the Titanic Festival, an overall of 74 films including Hungarian-related features and international premiers will be screened. The two flagships of this year will be the Irish-section presented by Emerald Island corresponding with the Irish EU presidency in 2013. The section will bring throughout 109 minutes featuring six film in the row of 10 outstanding short films and animations as well.  

It includes a horror-comedy staring a sea-monster, a horror from the world of blocks-of-flats, a social drama, a documentary film on the life of the legendary Belfast punk-rock rebel, Terri Holey in „Good Vibrations” by Lisa Barros D’Sa and Glenn Leyburn. This film was the opening screened this year at Karlovy Vary Film Festival. Tells the story of the legendary, radical Belfast punk-rock rebel, Terri Holey, of the bloody conflict known as the Troubles shuts down his city and all his friends take sides and take up arms, Terri opens a record shop on the most bombed half-mile in Europe and calls it ‘Good Vibrations’. Through it, he discovers a compelling voice of resistance in the city’s nascent underground punk scene and becomes the unlikely leader of a motley band of kids and punks who join him in his mission to create a new community, an alternative Ulster, to bring his city back to life.The audience can also view „Róisín Murphy” from the Moloko band, a horror-comedy staring a sea-monster,  a horror from the world of blocks-of-flats, a social drama. Lenny Abrahamson’s  „What Richard Did”  will run in competition. It tells the fateful story of a gifted and gilded Dublin teenager whose bright future is compromised after a senseless act of violence. There will be 4 further films running in Emerald Island. In the hilarious horror-comedy, „Grabbers” a film by Jon Wright – one day a bizarre sea creature appears on the shore of a small Irish island. It has long tentacles, sharp teeth, and intentions that could not be called friendly. But they have picked the wrong spot to work their evil plans. It may take a lot to rile these Irish islanders but no one is going to mess with their pub! Festival-favourite „Citadel”, directed by Ciarán Foy is a horror too, but with a much darker shade: Tommy Cowley is a man inflicted with chronic since the day his wife was attacked and he was unable to protect her. Living in a council estate from hell, he finds himself terrorized by a gang of twisted feral children, who are intent on taking his baby daughter.  „Keys To The City” is the first film of directors Christopher Brennan, Mel Cannon and Laura Way. In this drama three separate stories meet. Eoin is a businessman who can no longer pay the bills or the mortgage, Paul is a landlord with the banks breathing down his neck and Monika is a Polish cleaner whose minimum wage job is under threat. All three are struggling for survival and forced to increasingly desperate actions in the hope of keeping their lives and families together. A documentary, „Knuckle” is also included in Emerald Island, It is an epic 12-year journey into the brutal and secretive world of an Irish Traveller community.  

The Czech Republic comes along with a selection of  five contemporary Czech movies. A multi-award-winning film noir, a first film about sexual awakening, a road movie, an absurd black comedy and a war drama about the Nazi massacre of Lidice.  At least 2 thumbs up to the Czech Republic :1st. to jointly organize with the Hungarian organizers to have the Head of jury’s seat taken by the world-famous Czech Director Jiři Menzel Then the 2nd. thumbs high for the presence and supporter of the well-known Staropramen beer  snacks. Info for those who are thirsty right now … pardon me I can’t be of help for them right now, but need no worry for those who are on the spot at the Uránia Cinema during the festival’s films, so who wants a “Korsó” Hungarian mug of beer may have it, cause after the movie will  get one for free by simply showing their movie tickets. There will be severing alcohol and non-alcohol Staropramen beer.

Another unique option for th e movie lovers will be watching the films roll by with the actual  filmmakers..

“MR” HEINEKEN’S 140TH ANNIVESARY CELEBRATION IN BUDAPEST

Posted by www.rollinginbudapest.com in Uncategorized.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

Stepping in to the Heineken White Lounge Bar – Le Meriden Hotel people arrive into the world of mainly green rays and soft lounge music as they were welcomed by the hostesses with the brands beer. The atmosphere is pretty cool with the white color furnitures. The event to which the Heineken and Design Terminal VIPs, designers and journalists were invited was connected to the opening of „Heineken RemixOurFuture and exhibition”.  The ceremony was  opened on Thursday, March, 21. by the marketing director of Heineken Hungaria Breweries Ltd. Mr. Bram Westenbrink and by Mr. Gergely Böszörményi-Nagy, strategic director of the Design Terminal and Mr. Zoltán Kapitány, senior PR menedzser – ACG PR.

Within the invited guests another two Dutch gentlemen joined to celebrate, so the three Dutchmen in Budapest can be also seen rolling along the snaps.

Beside the Heineken beers a wide scale of other soft, cocktails, long drinks are to ease the thirsts and if anyone feel a bit hungry unique  finger-food and snacks will take away the hunger.

Mr. Westenbrink first words were „The Heineken is on constant reconstruction, redesign for renewal innovation and the occasion of our gathering is to show the Hungarian designers art of work. They are out of 300.000 starters in the Heineken’s new bottle design competition, and at the end 100 graphic competitors were chosen and at the end a number of 10 bottles of Hungarian designer’s climbed their way through to be in the upcoming competition. Here are the 10 bottles and the designers names along with their graphic creation: Zsombor Kiss, who was lucky enough to have all his 3 designs to be chosen the “Rubik style”, “Star of the Future”, “What is in the bottle?” Was great to see a lady int he pack to get through the selection: Eszter Nyári with her “Your Hero” graphic. Csaba Robob’s design was named the “Constellation”. Kiss came alone with his design named “Remixourfuture”. Balázs Szabó “Neonsign” and as he said. “I tried to create traditional ticketing on the bottle. I used hand-writing and drawn the letters of the original Heineken bottle. I consumed the star and the copy – with minimal assortment adapts to the colors of the original image.” Miklós Mendrei  came out with the “robot clone” graphic. Richard Orosz told me about the idea of his “Lollipop bottle” … „I was inspired by a party straw and a lollipop. The sinuous, colorful lines and the graphic game are suggesting sence of space, and these are having an effect on us, just like the beer does inside of us.”

Many will probably have in mind … why is the red star in the Heineken logo?  There is a legend to it … and as known the legends remain legends. So here it goes … in the middle age  it was the symbol of the European brewers and they thought that it has a mystical power which protect the beer … but actually we will never find out  the exact origin and better for Heineken to keep on having the red star on their brands, to be or not to be superstitious!

Below is a link to catch up of the next day’s, Friday, March, 22. at the countdown with spectacular light installation started at 7 p.m. on Madách Square, whereas the celebration and handing over the limited designed Heineken bottle of beer  as to celebrate together with the public the 140 years of its anniversary … I mean a bottle shape made of tin … were welcomed indeed by the gathered Heineken lovers:

SOUTH-AMERICA FIESTA IN BUDAPEST

Well visiting the Fiesta of „Vintage Adventures and Culture in Latin America”  at the Fogasház wasn’t like taken a visit to those South-American countries which brought their sight-and-sound, wine products, yet indeed many could taste, see, learn much from the exhibitors information on the spot.

The outstanding wines from Chile is not a question … taste, flavor with its centuries of producing wines have earned Chilean wines a place of honor among one of the world’s finest. Of course the enviroment’s conditions has to do a lot, the soil, sunlight, exposure, temperature, humidity… (just like in many regions in Hungary with its special conditions for also premier winemaking … but that’s going to be coming soon in another update.) Throughout the 3 days many visitors can get into the mood having the South-American feeling, along with wines from the Wein Import Hungary Chile brought in association with the Latin American Association.

On of the highlights of the day was the special exhibition with paintings by the Chilean artists Mr. Patricio Baeza, the silicone artist painter. His works will remain hundreds-and-hundreds of years in same colors and condition as if they were painted just a day ado … so said Mr. Ferenc Keresztes graphic artist and painter also the teacher of Mr. Patricio Baeza. The painters have arrived to a new era in painting with an invention that revolutionized the universal visual arts by Mr. József  Nagy and Mr. Ferenc Kereztres.  In the past centuries if artists would have had known about the SziloKing silicone paint, to-day needn’t have to worry to be able to see, admire the origins generally, resplendent in the colors of the works of great painters … said Mr. Ferenc Keresztes graphic artist and painter and the teacher of Mr. Patricio Baeza.

La Tienda … brought really there Latina  mood with its colorful, bright, fragrant, unique artisan  ceramics items. You just cannot leave their stand before having a long look or buying any South-American items, as a magnet, decorative tile, bathroom accessories, Flower pot or vase, textiles and a gorgeous mirror, oh and the colourful parrot  or the butterfly almost just like to fly away in a second.

Ecuador … was also out to represent their offers  with the rich cultural  and multiethnic heritage. Adorable their handcrafts due to the knowledge and the use of the ancient techniques which have had been transmitted from generation-to-generation. Most probably needn’t have to say … Ecuador’s yarn and fabrics are the most known products, mainly out in Peru, Venezuela, Columbia, USA and Europe. Who haven’t seen somewhere Ecuador’s wood product … The high quality, diversity and creativity makes Ecuadorian wood very diverse and fascinate, made from teak, boards, balsa.

Venezuele had also a stand with beautiful hand-made items, worthwhile to visit.

Even though in between South-America and Spain an Ocean wash the shores, but Spain didn’t wish to be away from this grand fiesta gathering.  So Spain wish to present their presence by opening eyes to individuals to walk on the line to the Granada Spanish language school here in Budapest, Hungary.

Mexico tourism board presented a wide scale of unlimited programs to the visitors. Mexico City is the biggest and most populated city in  the world. Its history shows several expressions of its traditional roots. Cool building attractions, churches, museums and so forth.

Last but not least here a link I wish to share of the video taken at the opening ceremony of the hot salsa dancers from the Cuban Salsa Dance Tutorial Diabolica: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNh9BOYsy0E 

There is still a chance to pop by and „spend” time in South-America at the Gear House „Fogasház” District VIII. 51 Akácfa Street –Budapest.

AND

NOW IS THE TIME TO ROLL DOWN, HAVE A LOOK, MARK THE DATES FOR YOUR INTEREST!

From July, 22  until August, 11. 20 13.

The City of Gyula within its festival offers so much entertainment and by itself is in a way unique in Hungary.

Get ready to spend, enjoy the sights-and-sound during the weekdays or splash into a great weekend  filled with programs tailored for families, joining friends whether locals, arriving from other regions of the countryside, from over the border-side or  foreigners working, staying in Hungary to pick and spend an unforgettable time at the Gyula Festival in Hungary.

Need no rush, there are still weeks ahead for planning a schedule to visit the City of Gyula, in the mean time here is a wide scale of programs to screen in the frame of the series of events to be celebrated on the 50th anniversary of the Grand Gyulai Festival. Also   keep in mind to carry out reservation for a longer stay at one of the city’s ten 4stars hotels, apartments.

The Mayor of the City of Gyula Mr. Ernő Görgényi and Mr. Gedeon József Director Gyula Castle Theater invited  the media representatives  to announce the series of this year’s summer programs coming ahead at the 50th jubilee season at the Gyula Castle Theater. The press call was held at the backstage of the Városmajor Theater in the Garden Cafe & Lounge in Budapest.

As it was said to pass on …”You are invited and welcomed to the City of Gyula, where the longest festival for 7 weeks will take place during July, 22- until August, 11. 2013.

As the representatives of the City of  GYULA continued, they offer a marathon of entertainment for the duration time of 7 weeks  whilst  the Gyula Festival takes place. There is no place in Hungary, where within the length of time there is so much of various entertainment to see, also hop over to relax at the natural hot mineral spa of Gyula, watch performances at the open-air amazingly beautiful  Castle of Gyula, viewing its pond washing the bricks of the castle, just like a middle age castle should have and another inviting fact is their manufacturer of specially produced „Gyulai” sausages.

ROLLING OVER TO CHILE – IN THE MOOD OF THE SOUTH AMERICA FIESTA!

Posted by www.rollinginbudapest.com in Uncategorized. Tagged: , , , , , , , , .

Get ready for rolling over to Chile in the upcoming three days trip in Budapest starting next Friday throughout the  week-end.

 March, 22. – 24. 2013.

Just incase this shocking snowy and stormy cold weather throughout the country brought you down, don’t worry spring „must know it’s way” and it will hopefully hook up next week in our country. Looking forward to the wine specialties of domestic and foreigners interested to have the experience of the atmosphere of wines from Chile. Pardon me for one thing, but cannot bring the view of the tall palm trees, the warmth of the swaying breeze by the boardwalk beside the Ocean from Chile, but  the organizers of the „Vintage Adventures and Culture in Latin America” will surely bring the feeling of the warmth of the harvest that is just taking place in the Chilean fall with the harmonious wines at the Fogasház during the 3 days events.

As mentioned in the previous update, see: https://rollinginbudapest.com/2013/02/28/chilean-wine-evening-at-the-resident-of-the-h-e-chilean-ambassador-in-budapest/  the Embassy of Chile as one of the main sponsors jointly with the Wein Import Hungary Chile and the Latin American Association. They jointly invites to join, be a part at this celebration at the open doors and windows showing the colorful land and culture of South America. One of the major marks of Chile is their superb wines. Previously, heard, not tasted yet the wine from  the Casablanca Valley which is known as to be the similar to the popularity gained as the area of Marlborough, New Zealand. The major oceanic effects on human land suitable for elegant and harmonious structured wines. The wines from here show intense aromas, and full maturity in addition to dynamic, but still make it really nice acids derived from the harmonious wines. The ripening period brings a deep and rich flavors of the grapes.

I’d love to be the growing grapes at the Casablanca Valley where the days are mostly in the 28C degree and the nights ain’t so cold, only around 5C,  but to be serious anyone can enjoy and relax during the next week-end with a glass of Chilean wine whilst ” tasting”- “visiting” – “listening”  “dancing” to the hot  music of South America.

Throughout the 3 days the admission is free to the event.

For the tasting, registration is required to participate, the advance ticket price is 2500HUF  and at the spot on the actual day will be 2800HUF.

Location to the Gear House „Fogasház”  District VII. – 51 Akácfa Str. Budapest

Opening Ceremony starts at 4 p.m.- 4.30 po.m. on Friday, March 22. Continues with Cuban Salsa Dance Tutorial Diabolica at 4:30 p.m. – 5 p.m. thereafter, at 5 p.m. – 6 p.m. Ms. Zsuzsanna Kasza, editor Latimoport.hu, Barrera and Patricio Baeza photos by Venezuelan and Chilean painters  exhibition opening will be held.

Continuing the afternoon’s programs there will be every evening a party to close the day’s event, dominated by featuring music from the continent.

The organizers wish to involve the audience with presentations of the country. There will be questions out to the visitors … Have you ever tasted the wines of Chile?
