With the caveats from the last post, (wear fragrance VERY sparingly, and do not reapply in the office!) here are three great fragrances that will lighten your mood, if not your workload, while you're at work.
Must de Cartier - This is a very elegant, understated, green fragrance. It was created by Cartier to fit an atomizer that was part of a very elegant set of accessories, including the famous Cartier lighter.
As one would expect from a jeweler, the scent is very expensive. (Actually, it only smells expensive - the EDT is very moderately priced. But everyone in your office will think you got a raise.)
CE SOIR OU JAMAIS by Annick Goutal is a sharp, flowery fragrance. This feminine scent is composed of sparkling flowers. It is recommended for office wear.
Annick Goutal was a pianist who rebelled after many years of studying music to become a model. After a chance encounter with a perfumer, she opened her own perfume house in 1981. She created more than 25 fragrances before her death in 1999. Her daughter Camille Goutal runs the perfume shop, which has become associated with the Taittinger group (which includes fine Champaignes and Baccarat crystal.
EDEN by Cacharel is a refreshing, floral, oriental fragrance. This feminine scent is composed of spicy, oriental, and floral notes. It is recommended for office wear. Cacharel founder Jean Bousquet was the son of a sewing machine seller. He trained to be a tailor at a technical college, and worked two years as a designer before returning to Paris to found his own fashion house. The success of his first collection inspired him to create Cacharel.
Cacharel designs are known for their youthful style, femininity, lightness, refinement and use of bright colors. The introduction of the seersucker blouse, and a front cover in ELLE magazine in 1963 launched Cacharel onto the international stage.
So, go ahead and make your office a nicer place.
