The Classic Makeup: CHANEL brings the legendary lipstick into the 21st century. The story: Mademoiselle was so fascinated by lipstick that, in 1924, she created a creamy stick of lip colour that she inserted in a rectangular tube, the exact replica of the iconic N°5 spray bottle. She went so far as to create a secret compartment for it inside her legendary ‘2.55’ quilted handbag. Today, a black case with a gold ring in smooth, luxurious metal gives a fresh feel that is instantly familiar each time you slip your hand into your handbag to find your lipstick.

The Muse: In 1992, Vanessa Paradis whistled and played an acrobat, lending her still-adolescent grace and already exceptional personality to the COCO Fragrance. In 2003, in front of Karl Lagerfeld’s camera, the French icon became the muse of the ‘Ligne Cambon’ handbag. Today, her modern elegance and bold character perfectly represent a range of lipsticks with an evocative name: ROUGE COCO.

So this weekend I felt a bit adventurist and decided to find my second signature fragrance. OK my fourth. My first is Dolce & Gabbana The One, my second is Miss Dior Cherie Eau de Perfume, and my third is By Gucci by Gucci Eau de Parfum. I reached out to FLOWERBOMB by Viktor & Rolf eau de parfum at Sephora here at the Fashion Square Mall in Scottsdale Arizona. It smelled amazing in the store, and I adore the packaging. The smell is powdery on me and not too strong, which I like. It kind of reminded me a little a bit of Gucci Flora Eau de Parfum.

However after 2 days of giving FLOWERBOMB a go it didn’t quite worked well with my body chemistry. I didn’t like the dry down smell at the end of the day. I do believe FLOWERBOMB is still truly an exquisite perfume so you should try it yourself. Because after all a perfume is as good as the woman who is wearing it. It’s all about your personal chemistry. I went a full circle, I ended getting a new bottle of D&G The One.
