This post is a paid for advertorial in collaboration with Charlotte Tilbury.
This is a perfume with a story unlike no other. The fragrance is branded as ‘The Key to Attraction,’ containing a ‘Fleurotic Frequency’ that affects the wearer’s energy centres to attract love, light, power, positivity and sex. The alternative notes within the scent have been chosen specifically for their affects on a person’s moods; listed as the Joy Notes, Fleurotic Notes and the Psycho-Active Notes. These notes combine to create a Fleurotic Frequency, and the first of its kind floral-chypre perfume! It has the lightness of a floral scent, with the sexiness of a chypre perfume, blended together for a groundbreaking new perfume group. The story is dreamy and wonderful, and I expected no less from the creative minds of Charlotte and her team.
Joy Notes and Positivity.
The Joy Notes of Lemon, peach and black pepper create positivity and a confidence-boosting aura. These are the top notes, and create a fresh and invigorating impression to the scent. After settling on my skin, the black pepper and lemon notes really shines through and adds a spicier and brighter finish.
Fleurotic Notes, Love + Light.
The mid notes of tuberose, jasmine, frankincense, violet and patchouli primarily create a floral bouquet. These notes are said to last and resonate over 5 hours and will trigger the feelings of love and light in the wearer. I am a huge fan of violet and tuberose in fragrance profile, as they give such an alluring finish, and these mid notes really do make a lasting impression for me. On my skin, I can really smell the tuberose and violet distinctly.
The Pyscho Actives notes, Power + Sex.
The base notes of fire tree, ISO E Super, Hedione and Abrxan are scents I can’t personally relate to. I don’t believe I have come across such an interesting set of ingredients when it comes to perfume. Yet these are the ‘pheromone’ notes that are activated by body heat and develop and last for up to 9 hours. I am a big fan of perfumes that develop with the wearers pheromones, as the scent can often take on a slightly different tone depending on the wearer. These are the more sensual, sexy and powerful bases notes that deliver a fuller finish to this scent.
For the launch of the new fragrance, Charlotte has worked with a long-term friend and collaborator, Kate Moss, who I truly believe is a fantastic match for the type of woman who would rock this scent from day to day. Someone confident, sexy, passionate and bold who prefers her scent to be a little more mysterious, bright and interesting. Perhaps she is early 30’s or moving into her 60’s, but she wants to smell powerful, confident and unforgettable. Kate will be the face of the new fragrance and campaign, which is now available to purchase from Selfridges, Brown Thomas and Charlotte Tilbury online.
