“I love soft, sweet and clean scents for day and, for evening, scents with a unique kick. In my current roster for daytime is Prada Candy Florale. For night, Calvin Klein’s Euphoria Gold for women is warm and long-lasting.”
Denyse Beaulieu, Paris-based author of the memoir The Perfume Lover
“I’m wearing Good Girl Gone Bad by Kilian at the moment. I like to call it ‘big ball of flower’-because it feels like this large, cottony, fluffy ball that’s centred on a Chinese flower.”
Jan Moran, San Diego-based author of the upcoming novel Scent of Triumph (March 2015)
“When writing historical fiction, I like vintage: I wore Mitsouko, Shalimar and Vol de Nuit as I wrote my book. Now I’m writing a new book set in the 1950s, so I’m wearing Diorissimo, created in the ’50s and still produced.”
Nathalie Atkinson, culture columnist for The Globe and Mail
“Coco Noir by Chanel is an oriental, which I enjoy when it’s colder out. I like saffron a lot; it has that close-to-the skin warmth, and it’s creamy. I wear Safran Troublant by L’Artisan Parfumeur and Saffron Cologne Intense by Jo Malone.”
