Teresa and I are suckers for unique, stand-out fragrances. From jamming our bathroom cabinets with Jo Malone to lesser-known colognes (such as our favourite St Kitt's), we're always on the hunt for new perfumes. I mean, there's just something about spritzing on a beautiful scent that puts a joyous, happy spring in your step, isn't there?
As a long-term lover of the luxurious beauty brand Ancienne Ambiance, I was thrilled when they announced that they were finally selling their own fragrances. You see, each of AA's luxe products is not only top notch, but they always have the most beautiful scent, which lingers for the entire day.
Happily, Ancienne sent me each of their new colognes to try - and I am in love! Coming in three different flavours (Colonia IV, Colonia VI and Colonia VII), there's something for everyone, whether you prefer a lighter, fruitier scent, or something a little muskier and sexier.
Since I grew up on CK One, I'm all about fresh fragrances, so my pick of the bunch has to be the Colonia VII. AA describe this one perfectly - "sparkling fruity-citrus" - with its invigorating notes of grapefruit, tangerine, orange and musk.
Honestly, it was love at first sniff (?) with this refreshing cologne. It's the perfect summer fragrance if you're looking for something new, fresh and fruity. This is definitely one for my signature scent drawer!
