Hi There

Chrome Summer

Chrome Summer

Happy Friday! Today’s Fragrance Friday feature is for the guys. The new limited edition Chrome Summer by Azzaro is a brand new, fresh fragrance that will make your man smell amazing this summer. Launched by Azzaro in 2012, Chrome Summer is a real manly-man’s, scent with top notes of grapefruit and cardamom, heart notes of green aquatic and base notes of rosewood and ambergris. Overall it’s a woody, spicy fragrance and those types just happen to be my favourite types of scents for a man! I like a man Before I even showed my hubby (my review dummy for this feature) the bottle or told him what it was, after spraying it on him, his first comment was “smells summery”. I was quite impressed, as that’s exactly what this version of Azzaro Chrome is all about, Summer! The bottle features the same design as the original Chrome, however this one is covered with a fine metallic film, to give it an instantly “refreshing” look. Look how beautifully my garden reflects on the bottle, and when you hold it up, you can see right through it. I do also love the lid, which incorporates a chrome checker plate finish, so masculine indeed!

Kiss From A Jolie Rose

Kiss From A Jolie Rose

I am getting super excited about all the lovely new, light and floral fragrances launching for Spring. One of them, Azzaro Jolie Rose which comes in this beautiful pink bottle with an over sized pink “rose” lid. So pretty! A sparkling fragrance composed by Daphne Bugey of Firmenich, Jolie Rose evokes life, colour, softness and femininity. It’s a powdery blend of flowers with zesty, velvety fruits that rest on a musky-woody base. The top note is orchestrated by bright, bursting accents of citron and kumquat with tangy notes of blackcurrant. The heart is a shower of rose petals blended with violet and the transparent freshness of the pink water lily. While the base notes comprise of a vibrant and woody cedar and white musk. It’s a true girly-girl fragrance that brightens your day and enhances your mood! Price: R315 (30ml EDT) and R495 (50ml EDT) What’s your favourite scent for Spring 2012?

Fragrance Friday – AZZARO DUO

Fragrance Friday – AZZARO DUO

I have to admit I was pretty excited to try this fragrance, seeing as though I’ve never tried an AZZARO fragrance before. AZZARO DUO, launched last month and is available for Women and Men; two beautiful bottles made to compliment each other and fit, just like the perfect couple. I was blown away by the bottles! They are made of a beautiful Molten metal and shaped like a tactical pebble to fit harmoniously with it’s precious counterpart – The AZZARO DUO for women is golden, while the AZZARO DUO for men is silver. My first thought though, was that it looked just like my Apple Magic Mouse? Both the men’s and women’s AZZARO DUO fragrances are linked by the freshness of grapefruit and the sensuality of musk! AZZARO DUO FOR WOMEN I love AZZARO DUO for women. It’s a rich, sensual fragrance with lovely Woody notes. It would be ideal for day or night, summer or winter and a great “signature” scent! Created by Perfumer Nathalie Lorson for Firmenich, AZZARO DUO for women has the seductive power of oriental fruity chypre. Add to that an addictive, radiant and floral accord, where the delicious notes of red apple and sparkling pink grapefruit bring a…
