Scent is a very special thing. It can comfort, uplift, evoke long lost memories and most importantly empower you. Stepping out the door without a fragrance is like forgetting the finishing accessories with an outfit, or a skipping a final slick of lipstick. There's just something missing without it.

Finding the right fragrance is the tricky thing, of course. Hundreds of sweet, sour, fruity or floral notes in a thousand different combinations. How do you know when you've discovered the one? For me it's an instant feeling. A sudden rush when a scent makes contact with skin to create an incredibly personal aroma that fills your entire head with joy.

The scents I love range from deep and musky to soft and sweet, but a really pure, clean fragrance is one that I've always searched for. Gucci Bamboo is a combinations of notes that I've come to know well in various other perfumes, but never together.

Sparkling Citruses in the top notes remind me of holidays in the Mediterranean, fragrant petals of Lily and Ylang Ylang in the heart radiate a floral bouquet and warm
Sandalwood and Tahitian Vanilla finish up the base with an inviting twist.

Wrapped up into one these form a crisp, clean scent with the softest of musky undertones. The notes create a ripple of different textures as the fragrance adapts from feminine and light upon first application, to something a little more sensual as it moves through to the night. Perfect to wear when you want to shifts moods in the evening while still hinting at your favourite day time scent.

The Eau de Toilette is the lighter sister of the original Eau De Parfum. It's more intense and vibrant attitude plays on the stronger side of scent and has the potential to evoke even more confidence in the wearer.

For me the EDT is my perfect scent. It's a fun and playful fragrance with the power to draw out a confident side that you may not have otherwise known was lurking underneath. It's a trait that we all have deep down inside us - some more than others, but one that we should all aspire to use to it's fullest, and with the help of the right perfume, that's one step closer.
