With the temperature rising, flowers blooming, and our spirits lifting, summer is finally here!
What better time to update your fragrance wardrobe than with a fresh new scent or two? And since warmer weather affects your skin chemistry, your favourite perfume that you wore in the fall and winter may be too overpowering and heavy for the summer season. Time to lighten up and arouse your senses…
Here are our Top Fragrances for Summer 2013 that come pretty close to capturing the sweet smell of summer in a bottle. Now it’s just a matter of choosing the right one for you!
ARQUISTE Parfumeur L’Etrog (unisex)
A bright Mediterranean fragrance, bright yellow and sunny with a sweet lemon scent that is not so much zesty as it is slightly fruity and rich.

Key Notes: Calabrese Cedrat (Citron in French), Myrtle, Date Fruit, Vetiver
L’Artisan Parfumeur Mimosa Pour Moi (Feminine)
A warm floral green fragrance. Warm in the sense that it is creamy and radiant and calming scent, more of a whisper than a shout.

Capturing the green stems, the leaves and the silky vanillic beauty of the flowers themselves, this is indeed a delicate floral portrait of the mimosa tree.
Key Notes: mimosa, violet leaves, blackcurrant bud
