It’s not exactly Sunny today, but Summer is well underway. It’s impossible to pass through the shops without eyeing all the Summer fragrance launches. I tend to stick to a few beloved scents all year. However I’ve been tempted by some of the new fragrances I’ve sampled recently. And a few which whilst not new this season, make me think of Summer days, hot holidays and the beach.
What do you look for in a perfume? I have to admit I’m always drawn in by the bottle. Although of course the scent is paramount. I like fragrances which tell a story. From the packaging to the scent, I want to be reminded of something. All my favourite perfumes remind me of a time or place. Just a sniff of one from the past can transport you back to that phase of your life.
During the Summer I favour fruity and floral scents. Although anything too sweet is off the menu.
Summer Fragrance
1. Ok so Miu Miu ‘L’Eau Bleue’ eau de parfum wins the best bottle award.
2. Marc Jacobs Honey Eau de Parfum
3. MAC Cosmetics Shadescents in Velvet Teddy – One of my all-time favourite MAC lipstick shades, in perfume form.
4. Estée Lauder Bronze Goddess Eau Fraiche
5. No one does luxury perfume sets like Clive Christian. This bottle is giving me serious Queen Victoria vibes and I’m living for it.
6. Michael Kors Wonderlust
What’s on your Summer fragrance wishlist this year? Would any of these feature?

It’s such a nice scent X
I really want to read more about the MAC perfumes, as I’ve heard quite a few mixed responses! Must get to a store to actually test them out! Great post xx

I love the whole concept behind them but if I’m being honest they’re not the most amazing scents (in my opinion). Not compared to others at least X
I want to try that Michael Kors Wonderlust. It sounds so dreamy.

I love it! X
Should I try Honey by MJ? I love sweet but delicate scents, think victor and Rolf flowerbomb. For the summer, I use the bronze goddess oil, Iove how it smells but wish I found something so nice without the glitter! xx

I only had a quick sniff when handed it at a counter a while back but I really liked it. The Victor & Rolf scents take some beating! Ah it’s annoying when products have unwanted / too much glitter in.
I’m all about them overly sweet scents haha! My all time favorite was Escada’s absolutely me, which can’t be found anywhere no more :((
Ahh it’s so annoying when something you love gets discontinued!
I really want the new Miu Miu perfume, I love the original! Honey by MJ is another one of my favourites, it’s a lovely summery scent!
