4 Must have Fragrances for a Summer Holiday
As you may have seen on my Instagram channel of late, that I've been catching some much needed Vitamin D touring the Bahamas. It's coincided with a Pokerstars Poker tournament which I have been keenly observing and writing about.
I've been busying myself in my down time here at the hotel, assembling some 'Get Ready With Me' outfits. I wanted to recant and recommend some of the fragrances I've brought on the road with me in sample sizes. My must have fragrances for a summer holiday.
Tom Ford Signature Costa Azzurra Acqua
The flanker to the original Italian classic Fougère fragrance Costa Azzurra that was launched in 2014. The Costa Azzurra Acqua opens lighter, a wild tangle of cypress, juniper and myrtle replaces that driftwood and the sweetness. The driftwood is a beautiful touch, and sits in harmony with those barefoot beach walks. Full review found here on my site.
Eau de Gingembre by Mizensir
A stunning alternative to wear in the summer as opposed to aqua fragrances or your more common citrusy or uber-green fragrances. When temperatures are soaring and you don't want the humidity to amplify the scent to the point it becomes overbearing, Eau de Gingembre by Mizensir is just the tonic. A light fragrance that projects and smells bright, healthy and doesn't invade or pervade when subjected to the humidity.
Dunhill Amalfi Citrus
Amalfi Citrus is a vibrant classic with a modern edge. The Amalfi Citrus has a very strong opening. It's not only citrus-y but very spicy. The Lemon Essence is not synthesised and entwines beautifully with the Rosemary and Green Tea. It adds that air of mysticism, as if you're inhabiting another skin or persona for your summer break.
Creed Silver Mountain Water
The freshness is awe-inspiring, the quality of notes and the aura of the scent can transport you to the top of the Swiss Alps' highest peak.
A delicate balance of warming sweet blackcurrant and charming musk. It offers an icy chill for those Caribbean heatwaves. A perfect and key addition to your summer fragrance wardrobe.
