I hear birds chirping! And I’m not completely freezing all day long! I feel a little spring action on the way.  With the coming of my fav season, comes a new wardrobe, a new outlook, and of course, a new scent.  I bring you, my top 5 spring scents on the scene.

1.)Bringing back the pure essence of the original Chloé line, this trio embodies class & elegance in Lavande, Capucine & Néroli. Me? I’m partial to Capucine. Not only does the green hue make me think in botanic terms, but the leafy scent thanks to the nasturtium flower, mixed with notes of citrus, cotton & juniper, makes this scent modern without me losing those fond of sundress sitting in the grass of my childhood garden.  

Chloé eau de fleurs The collection ( 100ml SRP $135.00) Saks Fifth Avenue and Chloé boutiques.

2.) A citrusy take on MJ’s Daisy, “In the Air” not only looks adorable on the boudior, but it’s floral motif will keep you in that springy mood, no matter the temperature outside. Wild strawberry, violet leaves and ruby red grapefruit hit the senses, making waking up in the morning that much easier, while lingering scents of vanilla, musk & gardenia, violet and jasmine petals keep the lively scent lasting all day long.  

Marc Jacobs Daisy “In the Air” Limited Edition (50ml SRP $57)  DaisyMarcJacobs.com or Sephora.com

3.) A true floral perfume. Femininity exudes from the intoxicating davana blossom eau de parfum from crafsmen Molton Brown. The narcotic notes of Egyptian orange flower and jasmine sambac blend with the soft exotic feel of Indian Davana blossom bring THE perfect balance between sultry/sexy & spring.

4.) We aren’t afraid to say it… we love all things Japanese here at TheLuxurySpot.com.  So we were super thankful when the Love, Lil Angel, Baby, Music & G: the Harajuku lovers, made a comeback for this spring/summer.  Each bikini-clad homegirl in this crew, like each scent, has a  personality of its own.  I’m partial to the seriously tropical coconut water & peach notes in G. Who’s ready to get down and surf?

5.) Sarah Jessica Parker wanted to embody her beloved character from Sex & the City in to a fragrance. And can I just say?  She has passed the test with flying colors, florals & animal prints. Much like SJP’s character, the scent is complicated and chic, with notes of vivacious wild strawberry accord, lush gardenia, and creamy, sensual undertones. All encased in a rapture of prints & colors bordering on a page from a Magic Eye book, that makes me feel like I’m browsing thorough the infamous closet we all envy.  I have been stopped every time I wear this by people, more by ladies,  wanting to know my secret to smelling delish.

SJP NYC (60ml/$49, 30ml/$35 & 15ml/$25) Avail in Fine Department stores nationwide.
