Six Scents: ShopCrazy’s picks for June
by Trixie Reyna, Managing Editor
How you smell is an important aspect of the overall package. Isn’t it such a turn off when someone is perfectly made up and clad in such trendy clothes but doesn’t smell good at all? It simply doesn’t make sense.
Most of us already have signature scents, but a lot of us also want to try new fragrances once in a while, just to spice things up. Some women would even go as far as having a particular perfume for every mood or occasion.
With that in mind, we at ShopCrazy thought of bringing you something new to look forward to each month: our crop of the best fragrances we’ve tried! Check out what made it to our first list after the jump.
Sultry: The Body Shop White Musk White Hot Summer (main photo)
Is summer your favorite season and are you missing it terribly? The Body Shop put a sultry twist to its popular White Musk scent in the New Limited Edition White Musk White Hot Summer Eau de Toilette (P895). This long-lasting sensual scent will bring back happy memories of summer nights dancing the night away in your favorite island paradise. It’s a uniquely feminine and delicate floral fragrance that complements a hot and dramatic sensuality—the perfect scent for an exciting first date.
Feminine: The Face Shop’s Soul Sweet Pleasure
While we love all four scents under The Face Shop’s new fragrance line for men and women, Soul Fragrances, we particularly fancy Soul Sweet Pleasure (PHP 895). Those who love pretty, feminine things will fall for this romantic floral fragrance, which has top notes of violet leaf, wild strawberry, and grapefruit, middle notes of violet, jasmine, and gardenia, and base notes of white wood, musk, and vanilla. The scent is light yet truly irresistible. You’d want to keep spraying it on. Wear it on days when you’re feeling particularly pretty and girly, to match your chic dress.
Hip: 212 Splash by Carolina Herrera
Fashionistas will love this trendy new limited edition fragrance from Carolina Herrera called 212 Splash (P3,800 for the 60ml EDT). It’s a fresh fruity scent that comes in a package that looks like a soda can, which has two little perfume bottles inside. We love how one bright pink bottle fits so easily in your handbag!
If you want to match your scent with your equally fun-loving boyfriend or husband, get him 212 Men Splash (P4,900 for the 100ml bottle). Both scents are long-lasting and truly complement each other. It’s best worn in daytime, especially on casual days.
