Among the 2014 trends in women's perfumes, orientals remain a safe bet to reveal a woman's sensuality. Fruity scents evoke sunny days and spring, with hints of citrus. Floral fragrances envelop and create a unique trail, thanks to a wide array of flowers.
A breath of the Orient, with vanilla, musk, and incense
Oriental perfume, as sensual as can be, is often favored by women with strong personalities who love bold and almost animalistic scents.
Most amber perfumes are powdery, which gives them the characteristic of clinging to the skin. Far from being volatile, this olfactory family focuses on elegance, with a touch of provocation. The aim of oriental perfume is to seduce and reveal femininity.
Vanilla is often the ingredient that defines this perfume, with warm and delicious notes. However, the rich oriental perfume comes in many variations: spicy, for a strong and warm scent; citrus, with refreshing touches; floral, for a decidedly feminine side; woody, with masculine notes; or even floral woody, to play on the feminine/masculine contrast. Lily eau de toilette is sure to charm.
Concentrated flowers for a powerful scent
Feminine and close to the skin, floral perfume suits sensitive women who love fresh and feminine scents. Light, this type of perfume is easy to wear and leaves a floral trail that lingers without being overwhelming.
What does a floral perfume contain? The rose is the iconic flower of feminine perfumes. Tender, it can be a soliflore or combined in a floral bouquet. You can find a multitude of flowers, the most common being violet, jasmine, lilac, lily of the valley, and narcissus. Miss France perfume combines star flowers—rose and jasmine—with fruity and oriental notes.
Fruit trails for a subtle and light scent
Fresh, fruity perfumes belong to the citrus family and are true invitations to summer and sunny days. Citrus fruits are the basic ingredients for a light perfume: lemon, orange, grapefruit, bergamot, and mandarin.
With no bitterness, the perfume is tangy. It suits sparkling women who like to change their perfume with the seasons. Fruity scents are often associated with eau de Cologne. The presence of essential oils can enhance the aromatic aspect of the perfume.
