Fine Fragrance Trends To Look Out For This Spring

One way to greet a new season is with a new perfume. Check out three fine fragrance trends that will surely get you spritzing this Spring from Bulgari, Maison Francis Kurkdjian and Tocca.

Think Sea & Sun

Just launched this April, Bulgari Aqua Divine ($90 – 2.2 oz, $70 – 1.3 oz, Macy’s, Bulgari, Bulgari.com) the fragrance that dazzles the senses with bergamot and fills the air with notes of amber and magnolia. For those of you with thoughts of the Mediterranean this is your pick. Top Notes: Salty Bergamot – Pink Ginger, Heart Notes: Magnolia – Sunlit Quince, Base Notes: Beeswax – Nude Amber

A Little Rosy

The maestro of fragrance, Francis Kurkdjian finds success again with the release of Maison Francis Kurkdjian Paris A la rose ($245, 2.4 fl oz, neimanmarcus.com and Bergdorf Goodman) the ultimate tribute to a woman’s femininity. Containing two varieties of roses – 250 Centifolia roses from Grasse (May Rose) and 150 Damascena roses from Bulgaria, Paris a la rose is whimsical and free-spirited fragrance for the girly-girl. Top notes: Damascena rose from Bulgaria, bergamot from Calabria and orange from California. Middle notes: violet and magnolia blossom. Bottom notes: woody cedar and musk accord with Centifolia rose from Grasse.

A Little Musky

Going on a trip? Then tote a perfume from the TOCCA eau de Parfums Travel Spray Collection ($34, tocca.com) with you – Giulietta, Cleopatra, Stella, Florence or Bianca. Travel-friendly and TSA-approved, each custom class bottle with the iconic bird pattern with gold cap is made in Italy. Hands down my favorite is Giuletta with Top Notes: Bulgarian Rose, Ylang Ylang, Green Apple, Pink Tulips,Middle Notes: Lily of the Valley, Iris Pallida, Vanilla Orchid, Lilac, Heliotrope and Bottom Notes: Cedarwood, Musk, Amber, Sandalwood.
