Best Luxury Perfumes: For Women
Kilian Love Don’t Be Shy
Love Don’t Be Shy is very feminine. The combination of marshmallow and orange blossom set it apart and the musk base adds depth. Rihanna announced to her fans that Love Don’t Be Shy is her favorite perfume and the brand sold out of it in minutes. Worth the splurge.

Frederic Malle Carnal Flower
Frederic Malle Carnal Flower is a tribute to tuberose. It took perfumer Dominique Ropion 18 months to compose the perfect fresh white floral. Hints of white flowers are joined by melon, leading to a soft wood finish. Fredric Malle Carnal Flower is elegant and a real compliment getter.
