Coco Mademoiselle by Chanel

Miss Dior by Christian Dior 

Around the corner from the House of Chanel in Paris, another iconic fashion house, Christian Dior, has been creating classic fragrances for women.

Nothing smells more like love than flowers, and this fragrance has a blend of damask roses and Egyptian jasmine, balanced with fruity Italian mandarins, swirled with amber, enhanced with Indonesian Patchouli, and vanilla. This is a precious and elegant signature scent worn by iconic women like Marlena Dietrich, Grace Kelly and Natalie Portman.

Beyoncé Heat The Mrs. Carter World Tour Limited Edition

If you’re wondering which celebrity scent to try – then look no further than Beyoncé Heat The Mrs. Carter World Tour Limited Edition, which recently claimed the best-selling celebrity fragrance of all time, as reported by E! This limited edition fragrance is a fruity floral fragrance that has notes of mangosteen, jasmine, Brassia Edua Loo Orchid and vanilla.

 If you can’t get the Limited Edition, try the original Beyoncé Heat, which is a blend of rare, sensual flowers like the Red Vanilla Orchid, Magnolia and Neroli mixed with peach, Almond Macaroon, Honeysuckle Nectar, crème de Musk, Sequoia Milkwood, Tonka Bean and Amber. This is definitely a sexy scent.

What other perfume would have a chance at complementing the crisp fall air as well as Coco Mademoiselle à la Chanel? With it's uniquely rich aroma and classic bottle, Coco Mademoiselle gives me the right amount of spice to say au revoir to summer and bonjour to the orange leaves and Burberry jackets soon to make an appearance.

I love Stella by Stella McCartney - for fall or any other season! It's the perfect mix of amber - dark, smoky, and yet sweet at the same time - with a bit of rose on top to keep it a bit feminine. My partner thinks it's just my natural smell as I've been wearing it since I first met him.

I wear anything by Miller Harris or Jo Malone. I like to match the fragrance to the outfit or mood of the day.

I don't like popular fragrances, I don't want to smell like everyone else! I love bath and body works, I like having a new scent every season!

I have tried these fragrances. It is a toss up between Miss Dior and Coco Mademoiselle they both have a soft fragrance that I love. I wanted to like Beyonce's perfume because I try all Celebrity perfumes but Beyonce's was a little masculine for me. Jo Malone reminds me of sandlewood and flowers. The La Collection de Grasse, to me, is more of a body spray. The fragrances are mild. I would have to pick Coco Mademoiselle as my favorite. I currently have on Curious by Britney Spears but I also like Gwen Steffani's L.A.M.B, Live from Jennifer Lopez, and Estee Lauder's Cinnabar. I like be able to change my perfume with my mood or to fit into where I am going.

I wear Burberry during the Fall and Winter months. The cedar and sandalwood always make me think of cozy sweaters and things like that. Love it!
