Wedding Day Perfume
As a lover of great perfumes I wanted to find a special fragrance to wear the day of my wedding. For me, perfume has always had a big effect on how I feel. Eric loves perfume and amazingly seems to notice every time I wear something new. I want to find something I can wear that will take us back to our special day. Much like an old song can take you back to that special time and place.
Finding a new fragrance that exudes love and romance was a journey I couldn't wait to embark upon. While in Paris last fall I began the search. This post is dedicated to the top 5 fragrances for the bride on her wedding day. I will only be revealing numbers 5 to 2 in this post. I want the fragrance I have chosen to remain a secret until after our wedding day. I will post the winner upon our return from the honeymoon.
Chloe, Love
Number 2: Chloe Love
This was a very tough choice. This fragrance could just have easily been THE perfume for my day. This fragrance can turn every woman into a goddess and transform every sinful thought in a virtue. A contemporary interpretation of Paris. Chloe Love is shy and dewy, sensual by its subdued innocence. Perfect for the bride planning a chic wedding with a vintage twist. This one is really hard to resist. (I'll will have a bottle with me during the honeymoon).
DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom
Number 3: DKNY Be Delicious Fresh Blossom
A romantic fragrance that marries freshness, vibrancy, and femininity. A blend of sparkling grapefruit, cassis, and sunkissed apricot meets a blooming floral heart of sheer muguet and petally rose wrapped in luminous jasmine. Perfect for a bride planning a sweet, small and romantic wedding.
Vera Wang Princess
Number 4: Vera Wang Princess
A sexy fragrance that includes a mixture of water lily, apple, mandarin meringue, and golden apricot skin, dark chocolate, amber, musk, and vanilla. Radiant, romantic with a hint of whimsy. Perfect for a bride planning an informal, outdoor wedding!
Stella McCartney Stella
Number 5: Stella McCartney STELLA
A sensual, intense and feminine fragrance. Top notes of rose essence has been fused with peony flower and mandarin essence, while the heart note is based on rose absolute. The base notes of woody ambers inject sexiness to the mix. Perfect for the bride planning and elegant and sophisticated wedding where no detail is forgotten. This fragrance exudes confidence and intrigue.

I’m not getting married, but this post makes me want to go out and buy a bottle of each. Maybe I will for Valentine’s Day ; )

Hello Chandra and Eric,
I ran across your website quite by accident in looking for photos of croquembouche. (My fiancé and I are marrying next September and plan on serving a pièce montée instead of the traditional American wedding cake.) I am a totally unabashed francophile, so I loved your beautiful website. I see that you are marrying in late April, but I didn’t see the exact date anywhere. Today is the 27th so the happy day has probably come and gone, but I did want to wish you both much happiness. I will be checking back at your website with the hopes of seeing photos of what I am sure was/will be a beautiful wedding.
