Another limited edition scent – Mugler Angel Eau Croisière Limited Edition EDT – thisis a fruity oriental fragrance, fresh, energetic and addictive. Inspired by a refreshing long summer drink, Angel Eau Croisière opens with a luminous and sparkling blend of luscious mango and juicy grapefruit, with a blackcurrant sorbet note at the heart. The creamy base of patchouli and praline echoes Angel’s gourmand signature notes, leaving you with a beautiful dry down that lasts all day.

The fragrance opens with notes of juicy raspberry and zesty citron, leading to delicate gardenia and lightly spiced ginger blossom at the heart, and a rich, edible base of sweet bourbon vanilla and crunchy caramel. This is a beautiful light, gourmand scent that’s perfect for Spring time.

Next I have Chopard’s Love Chopard EDP. Inspired by the dazzling red carpet glamour of the Cannes Film Festival, Chopard has created a wonderfully luxurious and seductive scent. Crafted around six of the world’s most exquisite rose notes, including a dewy petalled Turkish rose infusion, rich Moroccan Centifolia rose absolute and warm Turkish rose absolute. Love Chopard EDP is also enhanced with beautiful white florals, pink pepper, cinnamon, cocoa, brown sugar and honey, as well as rich woodsy notes and balsamic tonka bean. This oriental gourmand fragrance features no less than 30 sustainably sourced natural ingredients, and it’s honestly just a stunningly opulent scent. This is an absolute must-try for fans of rose perfumes looking for something new.

And lastly, Banana Republic has recently expanded its popular ICON fragrance collection, with two new scents for women –
Banana Republic Dark Cherry & Amber is a beautiful floral oriental scent with top notes of juicy black cherry and pink freesia, a heart of cherry blossom and praline, and a base woody blonde cedar and red amber. This is such a beautiful scent – I absolutely love cherry in a perfume, and the black cherry here is just gorgeous, dark and tempting.
- Top notes: Black cherry and Pink Freesia
- Heart Notes: Cherry Blossom and Praline
- Base Notes: Blonde Cedar, and Red Amber
But Banana Republic Tobacco & Tonka Bean is probably my favourite of the two. Thisis an oriental gourmand scent with top notes of juicy Anjou pear and Mirabelle plum, a heart of coconut and tobacco leaves, and vanilla bean and tonka bean at the base. This fragrance is wonderfully rich, decadent and sweet – definitely one to wear in the evenings. And I must admit I don’t detect the tobacco note too much myself, but I don’t see that as a bad thing personally. This juice smells high end for sure, and I for one can’t wait to see what Banana Republic comes up with for their next launch!
- Top notes: Anjou Pear and Mirabelle Plum
- Heart Notes: Coconut and Tobacco Leaves
- Base Notes: Vanilla Bean and Tonka Bean
Banana Republic fragrances are £55.00 for 75ml at Superdrug.
