Flattering looks for petite pregnant women
It's a contradiction, isn't it? Wearing a scent, yet smelling as if you aren't? However, this specific contradiction has been eagerly sought after by women for years, especially those with a more laid back attitude towards fragrance.
Nicolas Ghesquiere has released a fragrance that he thinks captures this contradictory mindset perfectly. He calls the scent "unidentifiable" and beauty editors have been guessing at the notes ever since the project was announced. It has the powdery sweetness of violets, but a sharp peppery middle note to balance it out.
This is the first fragrance release for the esteemed fashion house in over 12 years, and they are trusting designer-favorite Coty perfumes with the creation. The bottle is inspired by previous Balenciaga bottles from the past century, evoking the classic structured silhouette.
Balenciaga Paris Eau De Parfum is available at Neiman Marcus.
