My Fragrance Five

My Fragrance Five

One of my favourite things is fragrance! Actually, I think fragrance is my favourite thing! A lovely scent can change your mood in an instant, and there is nothing like wearing a fragrance that makes you feel exquisite. I like to keep my options open, and as much as I like the idea of a signature scent, honestly life is too short not to indulge in as many pleasures as possible! Why not explore them all? So at the moment, I’ve been rotating amongst these five fragrance faves..

Celebrate Spring with 3 Delightful New Jasmine Fragrances

Celebrate Spring with 3 Delightful New Jasmine Fragrances

Nothing says hello and welcome Spring, like the delightful scent of Jasmine. At about 5pm, when the sun starts to set, that gorgeous aroma fills the air, signifying the start of new and exciting things to come. It’s one of the things I look forward to most every spring. So to welcome the glorious season of Spring, and since it’s Spring Day in South Africa, I’ve rounded up three of my favourite jasmine loaded fragrances for this season. All three are absolutely gorgeous scents, and with each one, as I sniffed them, my reaction was pretty similar… “this is going to be my new signature scent for Spring 2017!” If you’re into Jasmine and white florals or just looking for a bright, happy and beautiful scent to wear, then these three will surely put a spring in your step!

Gucci Bamboo Eau De Parfum

Gucci Bamboo Eau De Parfum

Happy Fragrance Friday everyone! Today, I wanted to share another gorgeous fragrance with you gals from GUCCI, GUCCI BAMBOO. Although new to South Africa, GUCCI BAMBOO was launched by GUCCI in the Northern Hemispheres’ Spring of 2015, and now that we’re heading into warmer weather, GUCCI BAMBOO is a beautiful and delicate scent that we too can enjoy. Before we get into the notes and glorious scent, I love the story behind the name of this fragrance. BAMBOO is one of GUCCI’s most recognisable design signatures. It’s a symbol that’s natural strength compares to steel. It’s slender and elegant, and like bamboo, the GUCCI woman shares these strengths. She has an alluring mix of many different sides, balancing her strength and confidence with her innate femininity. GUCCI BAMBOO is a scent that represents the essence of the GUCCI Woman.  A fragrance that is true to her spirit. GUCCI BAMBOO is a gorgeous, sophisticated scent, classified as a woody-floral, but more delicate than you’d expect from a floral scent. It has a mix of exotic florals and woody notes, with top notes of bergamot, heart notes of casablanca lily and yang yang and base notes of sandalwood. A delicate pale blush juice, beautifully housed in a distinctive bottle with it’s sleek bamboo cap that represents a delicate sensibility with…

My Fave Summer Fragrances

My Fave Summer Fragrances

It’s been a smouldering hot summer, but before we head on into Autumn, I wanted to share some of my favourite summer scents that I’ve been rotating throughout this gorgeous season. When the heat rises, I tend to gravitate towards fresh, bright, softer and more delicate scents. I’m not a fan of sickly sweet-floral or candy scents, but I do love the smell of freshly cut flowers or scents that remind me of summer gardens. YSL Black Opium One of my most worn scents this summer, especially for night, has got to be YSL Black Opium. This scent is soooo gorgeous and addictive! I guess the coffee bean note gives me an instant mind boost. I also love how it develops into a mix of jasmine and light vanilla before settling into woody and patchouli notes. HUGO BOSS MA VIE For day, I like to wear HUGO BOSS MA VIE. This scent is beautifully packaged in a gorgeous pastel pink bottle and is all about playfulness with a powerful dash of sexy. It opens with an invograting fresh note of Cactus Blossom, combined with notes of Suave Pink Freesia, Jasmine Petals and Delicate Rose Bud. L’Occitane Fleurs de Cerisier A…
