It’s officially summer and July 4 is just around the corner! Here are a couple of new scents that I have had a chance to try. Perfect for spring, summer and Indian summer/early autumn, these scents are fresh and interesting.
Disclosure: I was provided samples of these two fragrances for this review. Without samples, I would not be able to review these scents.
Ladies first ( That means this is part 1-= the women’s scent!)
Divina by Vince Camuto!
THE FRAGRANCE
Divina Vince Camuto opens with notes of fresh, “grapefruity” pamplemousse and the tangy tartness of aromatic blackcurrant. Fruity top notes give way to the scent’s heart of bright sunflower petals and mimosa blossoms with their trail of warm honey. The green touch of violet leaves rounds out the scent’s heart. Sumptuous, heady florals drift into notes of powdery heliotrope and rich, golden sandalwood, finishing with a base of warm, sweet musk.
The sunny-fruity-floral fragrance was created by Caroline Sabas, perfumer at Givaudan.
“With divina Vince Camuto, I wanted to create a fragrance with a lot of energy and happiness. Sunflowers and mimosa blossoms both give me those feelings and inspire moments of carefree femininity. I remember my house in France filled with mimosa when I was a little girl, and that scent always gave me pure joy… the warmth made me feel so alive,” said Sabas.
THE NOTES:
Packaging:
This bottle is insane. Just seeing the bottle had me contemplating buying it. The yellow bottle and yellow gold filigree top is pretty much a stand-out on anyone’s vanity or dresser. It makes a terrific impression as a gift.
Review:
I love this scent. My first whiff of the scent had me thinking of YSL’s In Love Again (an iconic fragrance that is still in my collection). It’s the grapefruit-ish notes that make this enticing at first and then the warmth of the heart and base notes are lovely, almost intoxicating in creating a lovely fragrance suitable for any woman from 16- 70. If she has a love for life and pops with enthusiasm for each day, this is a great scent for her!
Divina eau de parfum, 100 ml, $90! Available at fine stores everywhere!
