Sexy, Spice Naughty and Nice: Holiday's Must-Try Winter Scents

By TheGlamtastic · December 2, 2009 · 1 Comment ·
Please Note: I did not receive PR/free samples of Gucci or Marc Jacobs fragrances. I did receive a sample of In Bloom to test. I would have written about the fragrance regardless of whether I received a sample to test.
What's your favorite winter fragrance? This season, we challenge you to experiment with a new scent, perhaps one that provides a spicy floral scent or a warm fragrance with citrus and charm.
Here are some of our favorites...


Gucci Flora
This subtle, sophisticated and sexy floral scent will keep you warm during the frigid winter nights! The scent, inspired by the Flora Donna, is perfect for any Gucci girl or elegant woman of the house. The fragrance is composed of top notes including citrus and peony. The heart is made up of rose and osmanthus flower, and the base is a rich recipe of pink pepper and sandalwood. After just one spritz, you won't be able to stop yourself from smelling your sensual and sexy scented skin. This is the winter scent that I just can't live without!


In Bloom by Reese Witherspoon
Wish you had the stunning good looks and charm of starlet Reese Witherspoon? Now, you can enjoy her new floral oriental woodsy scent just before the snow hits! This delicate fragrance, created by Reese and the expert perfumers at Avon, opens with Georgia peach, tea leaves and crisp greens. The heart of the scent is a mixture of star gardenia, magnolia and jasmine. The scent closes with cashmere woods, hypnotic florals and amber wood crystals. It's a fragrance that gives off provocative, feminine notes and leaves the skin with just the right amount of sexy, sensual scent!


Marc Jacobs Lola
Marc Jacobs is an infamous character on the fashion, beauty and red carpet scene; he always leaves his mark! His new fragrance Lola also does just that!  This warm, floral bouquet is a free spirited scent for today's modern girl. The fragrance is playful, flirtatious and alluring. Love it! The scent opens with pink peppercorn, pear, and ruby red grapefruit. The heart shines with rose, fushia peony and geranium, while Lola closes with lovely layers of vanilla, warm tonka bean and creamy musk to keep the fragrance oh-so-sensuous!

Makeover Your Summer Scent with Gucci Flora

Gucci Flora by Gucci

The scents of summer aren’t always the sexiest! The combination of sunscreen and sweat isn’t exactly my favorite fragrance combination…

Makeover your summer scent with Gucci’s latest perfume, Gucci Flora. This light, romantic floral smells sensual with hints of summer woven throughout the perfume. The fragrance, inspired by the Princesses from the past, the present and the future, exudes a sophisticated sexiness.

“Flora is lighter, the floral scent of course evokes a younger consumer, and she has a hedonistic, daring side. I don’t want to say that Flora is the daughter of Gucci by Gucci but maybe the younger sister,” explains Frida Giannini, Gucci’s creative director.

The scent opens with citrus and peony, the heart of the fragrance is composed of rose and Osmanthus flower and the perfume closes with pink pepper and sandalwood.

Smell like the beach beauty you are with Gucci Flora!
