Favourite New Fragrances

With so many new scents hitting the shelves, 2021 feels like the year of the fragrance. I've tried a fair few of them already this year, so I thought it was time to share my favourites...

Weekly Worship: L'Atelier de Givenchy Iris Harmonique

Fragrances are my biggest weakness. My current collection is taking over my dresser and I waste too many hours of my life hunting for my next favourite scent. So when I learnt that Harrods was exclusively launching a new Givenchy fragrance, I had to try it.

Celebrating Scents

If you give a shit about beautiful scents, you will know that the world celebrated National Fragrance Day last week. I would've celebrated but, well, I completely forgot (I'm a bad beauty blogger after all...). However I thought it was a good time to give you a fragrance update and share what scents I've been dowsing myself in over these past few months.

One of my favourites is Flower By Kenzo Eau Florale (from £53.00 theperfumeshop.com / $72.00 Sephora), a new take on an old classic that contains top notes of grapefruit and mandarin, middle notes of peony and Bulgarian rose and base notes of musk and vanilla. It is a limited-edition fragrance that carries a lively, fresh and feminine scent. It packs a real punch with great staying power to match! If that isn't enough, the beautiful poppy-embossed bottle it's contained in is to die for...

Liquid foundation can arguably be applied any number of ways, however there is one method that reigns supreme. It doesn't come down to the type of foundation you wear or the tools you use; it all rests on where you begin applying it...

News: Givenchy's New Face

It has just been announced that Alicia Keys is the new face of Givenchy perfumes.

This is the award-winning singer's first step into the world of beauty - joining the likes of Justin Timberlake, Liv Tyler, Uma Thurman and Amanda Seyfried, who have fronted Givenchy campaigns throughout recent years.

“Givenchy has long been one of the world’s most iconic luxury fashion houses, and a personal favourite of mine” said Alicia Keys, “To be a part of their prestige and elegance is a thrilling moment. I’m honoured to introduce the world to the newest scent by Givenchy”.

Parfums Givenchy Global President Thierry Maman commented, “Alicia is a remarkable woman whose charismatic personality and magnetic beauty are perfectly in line with what Givenchy has always been: noble, distinctive and unexpected. We very much look forward to working with her on an exciting new perfume project”.

Alicia's first campaign for the luxury French brand is due to launch in September this year. There is no information on the fragrance itself, however, knowing Alicia, I'm sure it will be on fire!
