Scent of the season

When there’s a change of season, we change our wardrobes. From the cold to the warm, our layers come off and our dress is lighter – but what of our fragrance?

Instead of heavy spice, aim instead for light and floral or perhaps a hint of citrus. It’s time for fresh, summery scents, so here’s FashioNZ’s fave five…
 

Elie Saab Le Parfum – New Eau de Toilette
 

Evanescent orange blossom, mingled with a soft, subtle rose honey note is the essence of eau de parfum Elie Saab Le Parfum – New Eau de Toilette. A beautiful summer scent, this burst of sunshine offers the freshness of the mandarin tree blossom, round sensuality of the gardenia and sparkling vibrancy of vetiver.
 

Elie Saab Le Parfum – eau de toilette spray from $102.00
 

The Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Cherry Blossom Collection
 

Fresh and feminine, The Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Cherry Blossom is an exquisite floral and citrus fragrance that captures the freshness of green tea leaves, while delivering the femininity of delicate pink petals.

Pleats Please Issey Miyake
 

Pleats Please Issey Miyake has a joyous, light-hearted character. A bright and cheerful bouquet, sip from this nectar of bliss. Top notes sparkle with the aroma of nashi, pear and apple (the pear is dominant). Mid-notes of fresh peony and sweet pea suggest a graceful sensuality and the base notes prolong a sensation of mellow calm, as it settles into the rich, woody notes of cedar.

La Petite Robe Noire – Guerlain

La Petite Robe Noire by Guerlain is sparkling, light eau de parfum, as crisp and tender as a rose and as sweet as a cherry macaroon.  A radiant breeze of Tonka Bean, Vanilla, Iris and Patchouli that’s fresh and luminous, it’s the very essence of Parisian elegance!

 

La Petite Robe Noire Guerlain – eau de parfum from $110
