Eau De Parfum 
An elaborate chypre, fruity and woody scent.
A fragrance of captivating and instantaneous charm, which gives way to a more unexpected sensation - an elaborate trail perfectly capturing the multifaceted young woman of  today. Miss Dior offers an intense and surprising change. A thoroughly modern chypre, the Eau de Parfum first entices with its fresh citrus top notes, before uncurling a harmonious blend of intense jasmine and Damascus rose, underscored by a contemporary patchouli with woody base notes of vetiver and sandalwood. This is personally my all time favourite range of fragrances due to its elegant and lovely charm it brings, I would definitely recommend ! Scroll down to find the explanation of the key elements used.

Eau De Toilette
A floral chypre lifted on a spring breeze 
The Eau de Toilette is a stroll in a French garden and another one of  my favourite smells in the world. The mischievous freshness of blood oranges is followed by the bitter sweet caress of neroli. The floral fragrance of Turkish rose and radiant gardenia blend harmoniously with jasmine and ylang ylang. Pure patchouli rounds off the light version of the irresistible Miss Dior signature chypre. A luminous celebration of spring blossom. Scroll down to find the explanation of the key elements used.

L'eau
A beautiful Smiling pastel fragrance
An elegant and light yet intense opus. Fresh and floral, it has a sparkling sweet simplicity. The acidic and fruity note of bitter orange blends with fleshy, vibrant and generous gardenia. White musk adds a velvety touch for a fresh, fluffy effect. An airy and crystalline Eau.

Flora By Gucci 
A wonderful Floral fruity fragrance 
The notes for Flora are listed as citrus, peony, rose, osmanthus, pink pepper, sandalwood and patchouli: this is a sheer, almost-sparkling floral, very pale and clean, in which nothing stands out other than the peony,Its floral but not too floral, sweet but not too sweet. The elements together create a perfect harmony that will not dissatisfy the buyer.  On some people the most pervasive note is the osmanthus, (like me) on others the rose, (like my assistant). Its simply beautiful.

Chloe, Eau de Parfum 
An iconic bottle... and smell
Just as the fragrance fuses classic elements with fresh ideas, and airy sweetness with woody strength, the flacon is a study in opposites. The designer Patrick Veillet drew on the intricate detail of the sleeve of a Chloe blouse as the inspiration for the delicately pleated glass walls of the square flacon. An oval cap plays off the strong lines while a silver collar adds a nostalgic feel. The metal plaque is a unique example of craftsmanship rarely seen in modern parfumery, and graces with the finish touch, a loosely knotted petal-colored ribbon.

Coco Mademoiselle, Chanel 
Light and Fresh 
A feeling of luxuriance is achieved through two exclusive ingredients that form the signature for all Chanel parfums: Jasmine Absolute and May Rose Absolute. These delicate flowers bursting with confidence are highlighted by a touch of Iris from Florence. 
The very sensual, amber peach shade of the parfum is revealed in the legendary Chanel faceted bottle. The neck is sealed with a fine membrane, set off by a few rows of white pearl
cotton yarn and a black wax
stamp.

No.5 Chanel
Carefully designed for perfection
The main components of No.5 are roses, ylang-ylang, jasmine and sandalwood, but mostly jasmine. I don't think any other perfume contains as much jasmine as Chanel No.5 , this makes the perfume more original and brings out the femininity.
