Fragrances I love for SPRING 2017 | Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu & YSL
If you’re thinking about updating your fragrance this spring, fear not because Marc Jacobs, Miu Miu, Calvin Klein and Nest have you covered. From light & fresh scents to sultry and mysterious, there’s something for everyone.
9 FRAGRANCES TO TRY THIS SPRING
NEST Black Tulip Eau de Parfum
Warm, floral and a bit complex, I urge you to try this one. The scent from the bottle settles very differently on my skin and I rather like the result. It’s almost like a perfect balance of masculine and feminine with my body chemistry. The full size bottle is also currently sold out on sephora.com, which says a lot considering it was just released earlier this month.
This warm floral perfume is the latest from Nest, a New York City based fragrance designer. It’s inviting and provocative with plenty of mystery.
Fragrance Notes: Black amber plum, patchouli, pink pepper, and Japanese violet.
Fragrance Description: Provocative, seductive and alluring.
Price: Eau De Perfum Spray, 50mL, $88
Eau De Perfum Rollerball, 8mL, $32
Sold exclusively at Sephora Canada and U.S.
MARC JACOBS Kiss Editions
Inspired by the vivid colours in Marc Jacobs resort collections, the three newest perfums to hit the MJ lineup are the three KISS editions. The fragrance line is vibrant, bold and striking. The vibrant pink hue of the bottles evoke the thrilling emotion of a kiss.

MARC JACOBS Daisy Kiss
Not realizing that Daisy Kiss is different from Daisy Eau So Fresh Kiss (pictured below), I proceeded to claim it as my favourite scent this spring. It’s fresh and feminine and reminds me of an updated version of the original Daisy, which has been a favourite of mine for many years now. If you like Daisy the OG, you’re gonna dig this one.
