Perfumer Lyn Harris has achieved a first. During the early stages of her pregnancy, she produced coeur d’été. A pure fragrance that nurtures the senses rather than attacks them.

A joy to wear, coeur d’été is a true bloom of a scent which keeps getting better and better, as you wear it.

Lancôme's newest fragrance, Hypnôse, is a bewitchingly sensual fragrance with a story to tell.
In cased in a slender bottle that is inspired by a Japanese woman draped in her Kimono, the fragrance lends a lot of its charm to the woody, oriental scents of the orient with youthful bursts of passion flower and vanilla vetiver for modernity.
What remains to be seen is whether the hypnotic characteristics will have the same impact on you as it did on the couple who created it. Apparently, one of the creators, Annick Menardo, wanted something original to enchant and captivate her long-time partner, Thierry Wasser, and so, they both set-off on a voyage to find an intimately blended perfume to do just that.
Price: £28.50 30ml EDP or £42.50 50ml

Like her personal style, her fragrance is a flashback to the classics of fashion design made modern with her trademark twists on tradition.
Lovely's top notes of bergamot, mandarin and a hint of apple martini are layered over orchid blossom and patchouli and balanced by the deeper notes of woods, amber and musk.
Price: from £22 for 30ml.
