You are… A DREAMER
Free-spirited, (mostly) calm, always kind – you are as content in your own company as you are with your close-knit crew. Don’t let the humdrum of everyday life stand in the way of your masterplan. Your perfect perfume partner is packed with soft, romantic top notes (think pink pepper, patchouli and jasmine) alongside a subtly seductive base.
Your fragrance family: florals
You are… A QUEEN
Loud, proud and a helluva lot of fun – the party hasn’t started until you get there, amirite? Not afraid to take risks, friends and family adore your strong sense of self. Opt for notes of ylang-ylang, hot vanilla and orange blossom.
Your fragrance family: fruity/floral
You are… BOSSING IT
Leading the way at home and at play, you’re a real role model – whether you’ve realised it yet or not. Remember even bosses have soft spots, so go easy on yourself. Your signature scent is packed with fresh, sparkling citrus top notes and swirls of lemon oil for clarity, mixed with a warm, spicy, peppery base.
Your fragrance family: citrus/woody
You are… RESERVED
Secretly seductive, conscientious, clear-minded and quietly confident (minus a need to shout about it), your cool, calm and collected demeanour means you’re an excellent friend. Make sure you show yourself some love too, with sensual, woody top notes, fig, tonka beans and nuzzly amber musks.
