1- Mon Guerlain, Guerlain

Mon Guerlain, the new fragrance that pays homage to contemporary femininity by uniting the contrasts expressed by the strength of taut lines and the sensuality of curves, evoking a strong, free and sensual femininity having Angelina Jolie as face of the perfume . 

TAHITENSIS VANILLA is the starting point behind the composition work of Guerlain, a favorite raw material inseparable from any Guerlain masterpiece and also present in Shalimar, Habit Rouge and Jicky. 

CARLA LAVENDER, despite its classic masculine attribute in perfumery, joins the sensual and mysterious Tahitensis vanilla. It was necessary to find exceptional and rare lavender, with unique olfactory properties that would satisfy the expectations of Guerlain, the Perfumer. Carla lavender shakes up the sensual, enveloping and almost maternal feminine component of vanilla by infusing it with its audacity, freshness, purity and simplicity. This is not an effect of opposition or compromise, but rather the richness brought about by difference explains Delphine Jelk, who co-created the fragrance. 

SAMBAC JASMINE gathered at sunrise, reminds us that femininity is also revealed in the grace of dawn. It is the link that connects delicious vanilla to lavender; it is the esthete that gives this composition all of its finesse.

SANTALUM ALBUM SANDALWOOD expresses the inner riches and resources possessed by all women. It is the wood that gives strength and preserves the mystery of eternal femininity 

Price: AED580. Available at Sephora stores and online.

2- Oud Satin Mood extrait de parfum, Maison Francis Kurkjian

Like a shooting star that lights up a desert sky, OUD satin mood extrait de parfum leaves an enchantingly opulent sillage. In this newest creation by Francis Kurkdjian, an abundance of roses from Turkey and Bulgaria round out the oud wood’s dark, animalistic tones with their sensuality, before enveloping the violet blossoms in softness.

The extrait de parfum interpretation remains the perfumer’s ultimate olfactory signature: without contradicting his fragrance’s original inspiration, he has provoked an opulent explosion of its most prominent notes while ensuring a harmonious new whole. Just as the OUD satin mood eau de parfum evokes the sensual movements of satin, this extrait de parfum variation accentuates the fabric’s Oriental reflections.

Price: AED1450. Available at Paris Gallery.

3-  NARCISO eau de parfum, narciso rodriguez

Art has always been a crucial influence on Narciso Rodriguez’s creative process. Fine artists and designers are part of the same category of intensely visual people, he has said, each of whom creates work with a distinctive point of view and discerning sensibility. “Fine artists, architects and designers are keen observers who produce singular interpretations and innovation,” says the designer.

The colors of the three scents in the NARCISO fragrance line are carefully considered.  The initial fragrance, NARCISO eau de parfum, is a warm stone-white, inspired by a stone found on a visit to Aphrodite’s birthplace. This particular ‘white’ doesn’t just capture an aesthetic purity; it alludes to the mythical romance of the fragrance.  The blush color of NARCISO eau de parfum poudree signifies extreme seduction while black, the color of NARCISO eau de toilette, implies mystery.

5- Alien Eau Sublime, Thierry Mugler

Solar. Refreshing. Sensual. In 2017, the Alien Solar Goddess radiates her beneficial energy through a new limited-edition creation: Alien Eau Sublime. A dazzling and energizing eau de toilette, Alien Eau Sublime awakens the senses.

Alien Eau Sublime comes to life in a new crystalline container, inspired by the legendary Alien bottle. The amethyst purple of Alien gives way to a luminous gold that evokes the solar quality of the fragrance inside. A new interpretation of Alien Eau de Parfum, Alien Eau Sublime has kept the original Alien signature, woven from cashmeran wood and sambac jasmine, in a variation that is fresher and sunnier. To attain its zenith, the fragrance was written around three revelations:

• Energizing revelation : The zesty green notes of mandarin and bitter orange steep us instantly in a dynamic cocktail that brings vigor and vibrancy to the fragrance.

• Solar revelation : The solar flower par excellence and the emblematic signature of all Alien creations, sambac jasmine meets the soft and sensual tones of another white flower: Tiaré, overdosed in this composition. This happy marriage brings sparkle to the sun-filled heart of Alien Eau Sublime.

• Enveloping revelation : Finally, amber and woody notes skillfully convey the feeling of a warm, enveloping cocoon and comforting well-being.
