A Scent for All Seasons

I am a great believer in how emotive and thought provoking a sent can be. For the last five or so years I have been adopting separate scents for autumn/winter and then spring/summer. While some may argue that this is perhaps a little excessive to have two different scents depending on the season, I find it necessary and a good aid to help transform my attitude from winter thinking to full of Spring. Plus there are plenty of men and women out there guilty of well over five variants of perfumes in their bathroom mainly as a result of Christmas presents.

For me my firm favourite winter scent has been a firm fixture of mine for the past five winters, Dior Addict. If you asked anyone what I smelt of, or gave them a bottle of it to smell you would instantly smell me. I love it.

However for this summer I have turned my sights to Marc Jacobs. I have always liked the look of their clean, perfumes and this Spring I decided to give it a try. As far as I am aware my scent is simply called Marc Jacobs and I have to admit I am really enjoying wearing it, it is beautiful . It evokes a similar scent identity to that of Jo Malone and Diptyque, that luxurious smell that oozes richness. Wearing this fragrance you honestly feel like a young professional. It is quite an adult scent and not for those who dream of fruit and femininity in their spray. As you can tell by the fact that the bottle is almost half empty already I have been drowning the curve of my neck in this scent.

I highly recommend switching up your scent for the season, anything that helps you get in the spirit of summer can only be a bonus.
