If you are a fragrance enthusiast, you may want to

If you are a fragrance enthusiast, you may want to search out fragrances by one of the world’s oldest perfumeries. Santa Maria Novella was founded in 1221 by Dominican friars in Florence, Italy. They began as a pharmacy using plants and botanicals as herbal remedies eventually transitioning to renowned perfumes. It officially opened to the public in 1612, gaining fame for scents like Acqua della Regina (1533) created for Catherine de’ Medici. You can still visit the original store in Florence located in a former chapel on Via della Scala and buy many of the iconic fragrances and bath soap, many featuring ingredients grown locally in Tuscan gardens. One of the most interesting products the company offers is scented wax tablets designed to perfume drawers and closets. This Acqua Della Regina version is gently perfumed with lavender blossoms and orange peel. #davelackiebeauty

Dolce & Gabanna’s ‘the one’ fragrance franchise is

Dolce & Gabanna’s ‘the one’ fragrance franchise is celebrating its 20th anniversary this year with new deeper interpretation of the original. Named ‘the one eau de parfum intense’, this long-lasting fragrance for her was created by perfumer Quentin Bisch who offers a bold ambery-floral spin on the original. He skillfully layers note of pink pepper, mandarin, blackcurrant, jasmine bouquet, creamy vanilla and opulent ambery accords. It’s bold, confident and alluring. #davelackie #theoneedpintense #theonefragrance #perfume

British fragrance brand Floral Street has unveiled

We may only be two months into 2026, but we alread

We may only be two months into 2026, but we already have a contender for best fragrance of 2026. New York fashion designer Narciso Rodriguez is launching ‘for her Pure Musc Blanc’ Eau de Parfum Intense, a floral-woody-musk fragrance for her that is quietly simply extraordinary. Rodriguez has specialized in musk fragrances from the very beginning and he clearly has a nose for this ingredient. He enlisted perfumer Sonia Constant to compose a luminous scent that captures the sensurality of clean white linen embracing warm skin. She does this by layering notes of jasmine, clean accord, aldehydes, white flowers, musk, cedarwood, amber and a hint of vanilla.

“To develop this eau de parfum intense, I wanted to create a fragrance that is both clean and sensual – a halo of light and sensuality,” she says. “The luminous fusion of ingredients creates a captivating and deeply feminine aura.” At Shoppers this month. #davelackiebeauty

Italian fashion house Ferragamo is serving up a sw

Italian fashion house Ferragamo is serving up a sweet treat to fragrance enthusiasts in time for Valentine’s Day. Introducing Signorina Romantica, an amber-vanilla fragrance for her that blends notes of lemon, black currant, rum, orange blossom, Anginetti biscuit accord (with floral and pastry notes), neroli, vanilla bean, benzoin, sandalwood, musk and amber. It’s a floral, creamy gourmand with orange flower and vanilla taking center stage. This addresses the global trend toward sweet fragrances – but in a sophisticated and skilled way. This eau de parfum smells expensive. The added rum gives it a warmth and depth you don’t find in other gourmands. At Shoppers this month. #davelackiebeauty #SignorinaRomantica #ferragamofragrance #valentinesdayscent #fragrancetrend

Tory Burch’s Sublime Eau de Parfum was arguably my

Tory Burch’s Sublime Eau de Parfum was arguably my favourite fragrance of 2024. Created by perfumers Rodrigo Flores-Roux and Christine Hassan, the leather-themed fragrance for her perfectly balanced notes of Italian mandarin, ivy, peach, magnolia, osmanthus, rose, vetiver, leather and patchouli. This is a fragrance so addictive you keep picking it up to smell it. Fast forward two years and we have a new eau de toilette version of the original that is more luminous, fresh and lighter in character. You’ll smell clementine in this formula which adds a radiance. And the leather has been dialed back a little. Perfect for spring and summer wear. @shoppersbeauty #davelackiebeauty
