Putting on the spritz
Next Eau De Toilette, £5 for 25ml Wrapped in a clear slimline glass bottle with a shiny silver top, Next's Eau De Toilette reminded me of L'eau D'Issey, the signature fragrance by Japanese designer Issey Miyake that is adored by supermodel Kate Moss. As a sharp, crisp, aquatic scent, it blends fresh water florals with musky notes to create a sassy, sexy and fabulously feminine aroma. Not only is it far cheaper than the original L'Eau D'Issy, but also the no-frills bottle is discreet enough to pop in my handbag, making it perfectly accessible for a quick spritz. Rather than making a dramatic and expensive statement, Next's Eau De Toilette is an understated and unobtrusive scent, which is subtle and fairly priced.
Light Blue by D&G, £20 for 25ml One dab and I was hooked on the latest creation by the most impertinent and innovative of Italian designers Dolce and Gabbana. The scent is addictive and zesty and I found the balance of flowers and green apple notes an enticement to joie de vivre. Despite its name, Light Blue is by no means light. Both overwhelming and irresistible, it has a crisp, fruity smell, which smells good enough to wear from first thing in the morning until last thing at night. This distinctive fragrance opens on a fresh and gourmet note of Sicily Cedar, Granny Smith apple and bluebells and is powered by jasmine, bamboo, white rose, amber and musk. The bottle is simple, yet the fragrance is unique. Adored by Irish pop babe Samantha Mumba, this is happiness in a bottle and as tasty as Granny's fresh-baked apple pie.
