Christian Dior Miss Dior Absolutely Blooming EDP, price on request

This gorgeous floral-fruity scent is as addictive as it gets―once you start wearing this fragrance, it’ll be hard to wear anything else! The top notes of raspberry, blackcurrant, pomegranate and pink pepper blend oh-so-well with the middle notes of May Rose and peony, settling into a sensual base of white musk. Housed in a gorgeous bottle, the pink colour of the juice matches the delicate floral character of this perfume.

Gucci Bloom Ambrosia di Fiori is a mix of easy notes that, together, form a fragrance that will help you celebrate your true selves. Housed in a gorgeous, no-fuss bottle, the scent features notes of jasmine bud, tuberose, rangoon creeper, damascene rose and velvety orris that make for a very addictive blend.

Versace Pour Femme Dylan Blue EDP, INR 6,650/50ml

This scent is elegant and wild at the same time. The floral-fruity-woody fragrance is also one of Donatella Versace’s favourites! The notes include an unexpected bend of blackcurrant sorbet, Granny Smith apple, clover, jasmine, ice infusion of peach, patchouli coeur, white smooth woods, and musk. And what makes this edgy fusion even more desirable is the bottle it’s housed in. Elegant and decadent, featuring the famed Medusa logo of Versace.

Tom Ford Rouge Jasmin EDP, INR 16,000/50ml

Tom Ford is known for creating the most luxurious fragrances. And this one, housed in a signature TF bottle in a deep red colour, is not different.

Yves Saint Laurent Libre EDP, INR 5,600/50ml

The latest juice from the House of YSL, Libre, translates to ‘free’ in English. The clean, logo-ed bottle is a modern-day icon in the making, just like the fragrance, which reimagines a classic floral scent. Libre combines the quintessential French lavender essence with the sensuality of Moroccan orange blossom, for a unique fusion. The blend is complemented by a daring note of musk accord, which makes it fresh-yet-warm, and extremely long-lasting.

Bvlgari Eau Parfumée Au Thé Noir Eau de Cologne Spray, INR 7,950/150ml

This is one fragrance you can totally share with your beau! Inspired by black tea of Yunnan, Au Thé Noir is one mysteriously sensual blend. The top note features a heady rose scent which fluidly leads to woody notes of black tea accord and patchouli. The Oriental-woody blend ages very well on skin and gets more intense as time passes.
