Wafting - The best perfumes to buy this season

I love walking down the street and getting a waft of perfume from a passer by . However some people wear overpowering fragrances that seem to give off headaches rather than floral aroma .

A Nice subtle smell that wafts Its the only way. If the smell is overly sweet or tangy then you end up smelling how Nicki Minaj looks ----- fake .
 
Waft is a lovely word , say it out loud right where you are . Go on . Just do it , Waft .

Anyway to waft is to pass easily or gently through or as if through the air. This is what perfume should do , however do you find that it wafts for 10 minutes and then goes away and and never wafts again .
 
I am going to blog about my favourite perfumes and the waftyness of them just because I love to waft .
 
1.Vivienne Westwood 'Let It Rock ' this is one of my favourites at the moment it has mandarin and freesia with hints of jasmine and patchouli, while the base introduces notes of amber. It is a quite a wafty perfume but not the waftyest .
You can get a 50ml bottle for around £40.
 

COCO MADEMOISELLE

2. Coco Mademoiselle is an Oriental-fresh, floral jasmine-rose accord, as light as a petal very wafty and it stays on for ages . It is one of my all time faves because its a classic and I generally use it in the summer because it is so floral and bright. It is lovely but it doesn't waft as much.
You can get 50 ml for £64.50
 
 

Lola

3. Lola by Marc Jacobs is a  relaxed , cool and confident scent. I think that it suits evening occasions . It has vanilla  and heart notes of rose , which I really love. in It has maximum waftyness !
You can get 50ml for £46.50
 
 

Florabotanica
4
 

4. This is my ultimate favourite perfume called Balenciaga Florabotanica it is composed of accords such as mint, carnation, hybrid rose, caladium leaves, amber and vetiver. It is like walking into a personal scent bubble it smells amazingly fresh and fruity. it is a medium wafter.
 It costs £52.50 for 50ml
 
 
L'Eau d'Issey
5
 
5. Issey Miyake imagines the scent of water' with  L'Eau d'Issey the source of life by creating a  fresh, floral and woody scent with hints of lilies and soft freesia combined with sensual precious woods. A signature scent as unforgettable as unexpected. It is an all year round fragrance and just smells expensive . It is more unusual and exquisite fragrance and wafts for a fair few hours .
It costs £48.50 for 50ml.
 
I can't decide which is my favourite but I love them all for different reasons !

  1. Agree with you re Florabotanica. Spied it at the airport the other day.

    If you like Issy but don't like the designer price, try M&S Issy - swear it's the same. Remember it's not always about designer prices!!! GM
