In Malaysia, we’re blessed with hot balmy weather all year long, with
seasonal tropical showers spread throughout. Most of the time, it’s hot
and I really mean HOT. And when it’s hot, we tend to get a little sweaty,
and that’s not a good thing for a fashionista. Smelling like a sweaty
cow is just NOT fashionable. Here is where this wonderful thing called perfume
comes to our aid. Well, of course, deodorant works too, but deodorant is just
not as sexy.
Perfume - fresh, sweet, musky, spicy, clean, seductive, whatever your favourite
aroma, you can be sure to find a scent that makes you smell just like it. So
let’s get down to it, here’s a low-down on the most aromatic scents
for summer.
For the guys…. Make the chicks swoon with these scents.
Aramis Life
This fragrance for men speaks confidence, sophistication, masculinity
and excitement.
Aramis Life is a citrus, green, wood fragrance that captures the
distinctive,
adventurous spirit of today’s modern man. The fragrance consists of three
accords:
Magnetic: vibrant, charismatic and slightly mischievous with
crisp, wet citrus notes.
Confident: Invigorating green notes of cucumber, violet leaves
and spearmint, intensified with energetic spices.
Masculine Edge: Sophistication expressed with
Olive Wood Natureprint and vitality enhanced by a warm, woodsy blend of Sandalwood,
Cedarwood and Leather.
True Star Men by Tommy Hilfiger
Inspired by handsome pop star Enrique Iglesias, Tommy's newest cologne
exudes untamed passion, talent and boyish charm. A soft-spiced wood fragrance,
True Star Men's opening attraction begins with the cool crispness of a pink grapefruit,

Sheer Stella by Stella McCartney
The pretty bottle design is enough to get me wanting this scent for
myself. Sheer Stella is this season’s intoxicating fragrance. Returning
to nature, Stella McCartney introduces a modern, edgy and intoxicating summer
fragrance with a blend of tangy and refreshing lemon zest, crisp and delicious
green apple note, a voluptuous cloud of rose absolute and celestial rose and
a hint of sensual amber.
Stella McCartney’s Sheer Stella is truly a summer
fragrance to indulge in this season.
Estee Lauder Beyond Paradise
Lauded as the new fantasy in fragrance. Beyond Paradise consists of
a delicately balanced blend of tropical wetness, zesty freshness and a burst
of floralcy.
Intoxicate your senses this summer with a fragrance that’s
rare, radiant and intriguing.
This fragrance exudes top notes of Eden's Mist, Blue Hyacinth, Orange Flower
Templar and Jabuticaba Fruit. While middle notes casts aromas of Laelia Orchid,
Crepe Jasmin, Mahonia Japonica and Pink Honeysuckle. The foundation of the
fragrance contains base notes of Natal Plum Blossoms, Ambrette Seed, Zebrano
Wood and Golden Melaleuca Bark.
Have to warn you though; Beyond Paradise is
quite a heavy fragrance, so it’s best to keep it to evening outings since
it’ll be too heavy for day use.
Lancome Hypnose
Don’t be hypnotised by the nifty looking bottle. Instead, spritz
some of this bewitching fragrance before heading out and let the hypnotic scent
works it’s magic.
Hypnose casts a woody oriental fragrance that acts like
a sensual love potion with a magical trail, Passion flower combined with Vanilla
and a woody base note with Vetiver.
So that’s it folks, whether you’re going for a fun-filled day
mall-crawling with your friends, partying at the club all night long or just
spending quality time with the love of your life we’ve got the right
scent for you. Sexy, playful, exciting or fresh, take your pick!
