High-end Quality Living

Perfumes encapsulate your entire look, hence must be carefully considered when putting together an outfit for an event

PERFUMERY

‘These notes have more flowery notes and sweet tones due to the presence of nectar and they stay longer if they are eau de parfum and a one-hit-and-fade if they are eau de toilette.’

Number 1, in no particular order, is Mac Jacob’s Daisy. The floral component of this perfume masterpiece are white violet and jasmine if you are after a sweeter addition, you would like the soft punch of its wild berries top note. This gives an exciting embrace to your nerves and says “happy days are here”.

‘Our second pick is the Jasmin Bonheur by Guerlain. Guerlain is known for bold aromatics, very punchy and intense. However, if you are looking for the luxury of Guerlain but with a floral power front, then this selection of jasmine should do precisely that.’

Should your perfume be paired with any outfit?

‘I would say no. This is because if you want to portray quality, you have to be deliberate. Choose intensely flowery notes when you are attending a day event and will be in spring wear (i.e flowery and floaty). Perfumes encapsulate your entire look, hence must be carefully considered when putting together an outfit for an event.’

What is your take on combining a variety of perfumes to acheive a signature scent?

‘Every perfume already comes with a combination of scents and you are better off mixing your own perfume to your unique taste at a perfumery rather than at home. This offers consistency and a signature scent conviction when compared to creating confusion as a style.’

Our expert also recommends saving special scents for special events as that is the purpose for which they were created.
