  Try: FLORIENTAL scents, where soft yet spicy orange flower notes meld with piquant aldehydes and sweet spices to create a rich heart. Until the past decade fruity florals dominated, but new more subtle and muted florientals are making a comeback for the first time since the 1970’s.

• Gifts for: THE ELEGANT LADY

  Try: SOFT ORIENTALS, which use incense to add sensual overtones to fragrant flowers, spices and amber. The base notes of a modern soft oriental are not as sweet or heavy as a true oriental, resulting in a distinctly softer scent.

  OPIUM BY YVES SAINT LAURENT ’Luxurious, sensual, bewitching’
  COCO BY CHANEL ‘Mysterious, provocative, sensuous’

• Gifts for: THE SEDUCTRESS
