They’re all so gorgeous.
So, I would describe myself as a bit of a perfume nerd.
Everyone has their thing, and one of mine is perfumes.
I am always on the look out for new and gorgeous scents, that suit various different places and times.
Do you have a perfume that you only really wear on mad nights out?
Or perhaps a specific smell you prefer to wear on holiday? Or at certain times of the year?
Well, I probably have about 60, and I use them depending on my mood, the weather, or where I am.
So, I have decided that I will start sharing my perfume discoveries with you gals on a monthly basis.
It’d be a shame to keep them to myself.
So, here are my five favourite perfumes for the month of October.
Tiffany & Love for Her, €91.
The Tiffany & Love fragrances are both crafted by a duo of perfumers, and express the magnetism and electricity of love. Each fragrance has its own unique structure but share a common hero ingredient, blue sequoia. Tiffany & Love for Her is a modern woody floral scent created by perfumers Honorine Blanc and Marie Salamagne of Firmenich. This delicious new scent is available in Brown Thomas and Arnotts.
Lacoste Pour Femme Timeless, €38.
The master perfumer Olivier Cresp brought together two forms of rose essence to adorn the original perfume with a new floral character, revealed by zests of Mandarin. The white bouquet of Jasmine and Gardenia welcome a new arrival: Orange Blossom absolute, which infuses the fragrance with bright, fresh, green notes. Available in Arnotts right now honeys.
Atelier Cologne Vanille Insensée, €130.
Vanille Insensée, an electrical current runs through the subtle sweetness of pure vanilla, jasmine and fresh lime to bond with rich oak moss, woods and spicy coriander – an unexpected yet highly addictive contrast. Simply delicious. You can buy it here now (you won’t regret it!)
Jo Malone London Dark Amber & Ginger Lily, €135.
This is one of my favourite scents of all time. Enriched with amber and black orchid and illuminated by the clean sensuality of black cardamom, ginger and water lily. A calm and relaxing scent that’s perfect for autumn. You can get a bottle of it here now.
Giorgio Armani Sì Passione, €120.
Discover the new feminine fragrance by Giorgio Armani, Sì Passione – a fruity floral eau de parfum that emits confidence, seduction and strength. Best described as the ‘red lip effect’ in a bottle, Sì Passione reflects the same emotions and self-assurance that a swipe of red lipstick can give the wearer. Buy it here now, and feel like a queen.
For himself:
Tiffany & Love for Him, €65.
Tiffany & Love for Him is a citrusy aromatic fragrance with a wood-infused base created by perfumers Sophie Labbé and Nicolas Beaulieu of IFF. Much like the female counterpart, this fragrance has its own unique structure but also a hero ingredient, blue sequoia. This gorgeous new scent is available in Brown Thomas and Arnotts.
