The Allure Of Pink-Colored Fragrances
Pink-colored scents are such an eye-candy; they’re trendy, chic and sweet. Every pink scent I encounter is a lush floral bouquet embellished with fruits or musk accords. The mingling of notes creates a dramatic flair to achieve a distinct character way above its peers. That’s the kind of image fragrance houses want to project to the perfume loving public.
Pink fragrances also signify the modernity in the world of perfumery. Mainstream scents, more often than not, are light and ephemeral and not to mention, pink!
There are a lot pink-colored scents in retail nowadays. But what is it about the pink-colored juices that every designer fragrance house comes up with its own collection of pink scents?
Let’s check out some of the more popular pink fragrances in the perfumery
Thierry Mugler Garden of Stars – Pivoine Angel
Peony is the most pronounced note while patchouli and vanilla warm the background. The floral combo of peony, rose and lily of the valley sets the stage for the gourmand-ish aroma Angel is known for. It’s slightly sweet, spicy and sprinkled with green accords. Pivoine Angel is part of Angel’s Garden of Stars’ flanker. This lovely pink juice was concocted by Olivier Cresp in 2005.
Femme Hugo Boss
Femme is a well-executed floral-musk fragrance. You can say that it’s one of the safest feminine scents around; safest in the sense that it’s not too much of a heady floral. Femme may smell familiar (reviews say that it smells like other floral fragrances) but in the dry down, it softens into a beautiful elegant floral that blends well with the warm musk.
Viktor&Rolf Flowerbomb
Floral power in a grenade-inspired bottle – this is Flowerbomb. The first fragrance by Dutch designers Viktor&Rolf, Flowerbomb is a decadent floral scent where the sweetness is cut by the edgy notes of patchouli. Designed as a floriental fragrance, this feminine scent tops the charts in the women’s perfumes category.
Lacoste Dream of Pink
Dream of Pink is undoubtedbly for the young audience. It’s fresh, sweet and very trendy. Touch of Pink and Love of Pink are part of Lacoste’s “Pink” scents. This perfume is consist of berries, iced tea, rose, lotus and sandalwood. Introduced in 2008, Lacoste Dream of Pink is just right for daytime.
Calvin Klein Euphoria
Euphoria is dark, enigmatic and exotic. The contrast of fruits and florals exude an alluring fragrance most fitting to a sophisticated woman. Some perfumistas say that Euphoria is so Angel-ish (Thierry Mugler). Perhaps, it’s the sweet-smoky finish emanating from the sweet-smoky accords.
There are many pink-colored fragrances in the perfumery and some were tagged as classics already. And every year, more perfumes are added to the list. You’ll never run out of options but the unfortunate thing nowadays is, most scents smell like the thousand of fragrances out there. If you find yourself lost in translation from distinguishing one perfume from another, this is not news.
