Best Fragrance – Chanel Cristalle Eau Verte

Monday, April 13th, 2009

Although originally created in 1974, Chanel’s in-house “nose” Jacques Polge has redesigned Cristalle for today’s modern woman. Cristalle Eau Verte is led by a magnolia accord that gives it a cleaner, brighter feel, while still retaining its original mood. And the distinctive bottle has a new white top that will be gracing all the most stylish bathrooms this summer.

Best Fragrance – Byredo Rose Noir

Monday, April 13th, 2009

This Stockholm-based fragrance house is one of a new breed founded by young “noses” who hail from art and design rather than traditional perfumery backgrounds. Its creator, Ben Gorham, was inspired by the Middle East, where both men and women wear rose as it is not considered to be overtly feminine. Here, effervescent top notes of rose and grapefruit quickly merge with a smoky undertone to create something really special. A future classic, perhaps?
