Spring is just around the corner, so it’s time to think about a fresher, lighter perfume for the brighter season.
The prettiest new spring release has to be the new Marc Jacobs fragrance duo – Daisy Marc Jacobs Delight and Daisy Eau So Fresh Marc Jacobs Delight. Based on the original Daisy and Daisy Eau So Fresh, the Delight collection is even more vibrant and energetic.
Made by perfumer Frank Voelkl of Firmenich, Daisy Delight (£48 for 50ml EDT) is a breezy, sparkling floral scent with a free-spirited vibe. It opens with notes of apple, quince flower and freesia, leading to heart notes of delicate iris, gardenia and peony, then developing to a woody base of musk, cedar and sandalwood.
The aquamarine liquid is presented in a short glass bottle with the signature gold stopper now adorned with fuchsia, mint green and pink over-sized flowers.
Daisy Eau So Fresh Marc Jacobs Delight (£52 for 75ml EDT) is a juicy, sun-drenched floral bursting with warmth and sweetness. It features top notes of blood orange, pink pepper and white tea while at the heart is tiare Tahiti, violet and raspberry, with apricot skin, musk and amber at the base.
The sheer pink liquid is contained in a tall glass bottle with gold engraving and a gold stopper blooming with even more flowers in fuchsia, mint green, pink and white.
Both fragrances are delightfully luminous and uplifting, taking you from spring to summer. My current favourite is Daisy Marc Jacobs Delight with its intense, charming daisy aroma, but the scent of crushed apricots in Daisy Eau So Fresh Marc Jacobs Delight will win during the warmer months.
The bold colours of the flowers remind me of gorgeous Mediterranean hues and both bottles are less than 100ml, so you could easily take it away on summer adventures in Mykonos, Ibiza or Amalfi.
Daisy Marc Jacobs Delight and Daisy Eau So Fresh Marc Jacobs Delight are available at Debenhams from 5th March 2014.
