Coco, a mysterious, provocative and sensuous fragrance named after Coco Chanel, is built on a major amber note, overlaid with flowers, with warm tones of wood and leather. In the 1980s when showy perfumes were very fashionable Coco resisted the trend. To quote Jacques Polge, its creator, “Je ne fais pas de parfums à la mode, je fais des parfums d’époque”. To translate: “I do not create fashionable fragrances, I create fragrances for an era” Polge travelled to the Orient for the ingredients of the classic Coco fragrance. These include jasmine, Damask rose and Tonka Bean, which combine to form this captivating and voluptuous perfume. Cococ Eau de Parfum can be classified as a floral, Oriental fragrance.
Top notes : Tunisian Orange Blossom, Sicilian Mandarin.
Middle notes : Damask Rose, Oriental Jasmine, Mimosa from Provence, Ylang-Ylang from the Comoros.
Base notes : Tonka Bean from Brazil and Venezuela, Indonesian Patchouli, Somalian Opoponax.

Flora Bvlgari, or Bulgari Rose Essentielle
August 5th, 2008 Flora Bvlgari Perfume – strange name for a fragrance
When I first saw the ads for Bvlgari perfume I thought that someone had dropped a big clanger! But I was wrong: and I have loved this scent for many years. Recently they have been trying to get our attention with the ‘true’ spelling of Bulgari using its Bvlgari alias.
Bvlgari is a famous designer fashion house that is well known for more than just its great perfumes. They also make quality eyewear and classic designer watches. If you are on the red carpet at an awards ceremony, a Bvlgari watch is an essential accessory for the night.
The perfume is hand made using some of the most expensive ingredients in the world, for example essential oils of roses. These are distilled slowly using more than a tonne of rose petals to produce one ounce of essential oil of roses. This alone justifies the high ticket price of Bvlgari Rose Essentielle, but when you realise they also include oil of blackberry and mimosa you start to see that this is perfume of the highest quality.
Britney Spears Perfumes by Elizabeth Arden
July 10th, 2008 Flora Britney Spears Perfume – the name says it all
There is one characteristic that Britney Spears Perfume shares with its creator – it is always with us. There are three varieties of fragrance in the Britney scent range, and most of us either love them or hate them. Like the woman, they also pop up in the most unlikely places, as self publicity is Ms Spears’ strength.
The Fan Club
The first Britney Spears Perfume was launched when its owner’s star was in its ascendance: in 2004, Curious summed up B’s attitude to life and our approach to her. In 2005 this was followed by the Fantasy fragrance. At this time you could say that Brit was living in a fantasy world of her own. Later, in 2006, the third variety, In Control, hit the world with huge irony. This was when the whole house of cards started to implode on a young woman whose taste of fame came too much, too soon.
Britney Spears perfumes are sold in most mid priced department stores and of course they are available in online shops. These perfumes are manufactured by the established house of Elizabeth Arden, who take care of all the marketing and publicity. All the star has to do is look pretty and take the money. Others who have put their name to a perfume in this way include Paris Hilton, another young woman with a knack of being in the public eye – often for the wrong reasons.
Curious
The first perfume in the successful Britney Spears range was “Curious”, this aims to be a regular type of perfume for an unusual kind of woman. The packaging consist of a classic fragrance bottle in blue or pink, shaped like a squashed diamond. This eclectic perfume is good for any occasion, from everyday to special occasions its fun, flowery and yet sexy fragrance will get you noticed for all the right reasons.
Fantasy
Fantasy
Britney Spears’ second foray into the world of fragrance is Fantasy, a product with an intense marketing campaign. This perfume is displayed online with state of the art computer graphics, rich colours and dazzling effects. It is amazing what this country spends on frivolities such as perfume. And even more amazing – someone got paid for thinking this campaign up! Perhaps making perfume look like Love Potion No.9 was someone’s Fantasy at Elizabeth Arden.
In Control
The youngest child of the Britney Spears perfume family smells perhaps more like Britney Spears’ recent image as temptress and siren. Its base is white vanilla, but then includes a blend of creme brulee, loquat fruit, midnight orchid, sugared sandalwood and musk. Elizabeth Arden does not test on animals…just customers.
Angel Perfume – Fragrance from Heaven
July 2nd, 2008 Flora More than fifteen years ago the French Fashion house of Thierry Mugler launched the ultra sweet perfume known as Angel. This is a delightful crisp blend that is never cloying. Angel Eau de Parfum combines floral and fruity notes with the use of vanilla, patchouli and sandalwood together with the scents of citrus, melon and peach. The end product is a pleasing upmarket blend of sweet and fresh notes that is instantly recognised as Angel Perfume.
Angel Perfume will Bring Praise
Angel has managed to achieve a heaven scent perfume that really does smell innocent and glamorous at the same time. This is a perfume that can carry you from day to night, fitting in wherever you go. Angel Perfume is ideal for all occasions and anyone who catches a whiff will remark and ask the name of your signature perfume. Of course, every fragrance does not sit well on every individual but Angel is a perfume that is definitely worth trying as it adapts well to most personalities and skin characteristics.
Thierry Mugler designed this scent as an extension of his efforts to dress women well – looking and smelling fantastic is surely aim when choosing designer outfits. With products from the house of Angel you can indulge in the heavenly smells from the moment you wake, pampering your body with the full set of products: the Angel Range has been extended with the introduction of beauty treatments and body sprays in the Secrets d’Angel brand.
Angel perfume is recognised as a superior blend of sandalwood and patchouli perfumes, standing out in the high end of French Designer Fragrances. In the year of 1998 Angel took the top spot from the revered Chanel No. 5 brand, a fashion icon that had built up its reputation over six decades. Angel perfume managed this in just six years!
