-This is a sponsored post in collaboration with Perfume Direct - With Valentine's Day (and the new season of Spring too) just around the corner there couldn't be a more ideal time to pick out a new fragrance for a loved one, even if said loved one happens to be yourself; let's face it there's only so many times a person can drop a hint before you have to take matters into your own hands!
I'm more than confident in stating that you don't need me to tell you that Perfume Direct offer literally hundreds of scents from all the huge perfume houses and all that is in-between but as I am only one person and really who has time to read about just about every current fragrance available in the UK, I have narrowed it down to my absolute must-try scents of the moment - all of which make wonderful gifts too should you want to find the perfect Valentine's Day present.
As we aren't quite into Spring yet (the snow outside is currently testament to that), it is tricky to find the balance between fresh and floral, without it being so light it gets lost on the several layers of woollen clothing I'm currently sporting. If that sounds familiar then you need to try Calvin Klein Euphoria Blossom Eau de Toilette (£17.99); it is light and airy with watery notes of lotus, pink peony and orchid and yet it has a certain depth that makes it perfectly suited to the current cold snap or Winter in general. If you are worried it may not last the pace of the day, I fully recommend purchasing the Calvin Klein Euphoria Blossom Gift Set (£34.99) and making the most of the shower gel to layer up and lock in your fragrance for hours on end.
A modern classic reinvented? Do you or have you ever worn Paco Rabbane Lady Million Eau de Perfume? Maybe it is a long forgotten about favourite and something you mean to revisit, or maybe you just want to try a chic, refined and powerful fragrance? Then please try Paco Rabbane Lady Million Prive (£65.99), it is the very height of opulence and luxe yet has a certainly familiarity that makes it so easy to wear. With notes of juicy raspberry, cocoa bean and honey, it is deep, sexy and one that never fails to grab the attention of others - perfect for work, play and of course date night!
Lastly a fragrance that I have yet to hear anyone talk about is the utterly beautiful Nina Ricci L'Extase Eau de Parfum (£52.99) - a warm, slightly caramel tinged rose floral that is both gentle and impactful. It is one of those rare scents that whenever I wear it someone is simply bound to comment and ask me what I'm wearing and where can they get it too. If you dare to be different then you need to try this rich pink pepper, rose and musk concoction on for size.
What are you currently wearing in terms of fragrance and why?
