Nails and Beauty Mix: WikiFashionista Summer 2011 Fragrance Pick: Chloé
Chloé Eau De Parfum Spray
Believe the hype fashioinistas! The much-hyped Chloé fragrance has been on our radar for some time now, but we wanted to try several different fragrances before we picked our Summer must have. Being the brainchild of a fashion house known for its ethereal creations, Michel Almairac, creator of Gucci Rush, developed this scent, so the fragrance is complex and pleasing. Fortunately, Chloé has the nuance that one can expect from a perfume with a high price tag. It smells like youthful roses in bloom. There is a whimsical mix of spiciness that is mind-blowing and brilliant.
Love, Chloé is meant to be about radiant, generous, spontaneous femininity. In other words, it’s meant to smell like cosmetic powder or as they put it a lingering powder halo nestled into the skin like a feminine aura, and that is precisely what it smells like. The early stages are sweet, fizzy orange candy + cosmetic powder, and it’s shrill for a few minutes before settling into something quiet enough to wear happily; the later stages are more of a creamy blended floral + iris-y cosmetic powder. A waft of pink pepper connects the two, and the dry down is rich without being loud. It’s feminine, maybe even über-feminine, and sophisticated in the very clean modern manner.
When sampling this product, one word came to mind and that word is “fancy.” If you’re the type of girl who likes to smell like a million bucks then this fragrance is not for you. But if you’re like us and enjoy getting compliments all day long on how good you smell then Chloé is a no brainer.
Chloé is the perfect fragrance for summertime debauchery. The warm summer nights at the beach front hang outs with a glass of your favorite drink and a crowd of your favorite friends is calling. Shopping at the local farmers market looking and smelling chic is all the rave this summer. Pair the fragrance with a 70s women fashion trends and feminine summer dress, a huge floppy hat and some huge sultry sunglasses to complete your prefect Summer ensemble.
