Choose your spring fling fragrance

Spring is in the air.

Days are getting longer. Birds are chirping. Spring is in the air; which can only mean one thing: it’s time to lighten up. Start with your fragrance first.

Say goodbye to the dark days of winter and trade in those heavy scents for lighter, softer, florals.

Sephora is a great place to test the waters in the search for your new Spring signature scent. Their Prelude to a Kiss set contains five mini samples of Sephora favorites that lets you try before you buy along with a coupon to redeem for a cute little rollerball once you have chosen your own favorite. Choose from:

L’Eau de Chloe: light, romantic and French florals will have you smelling like a gorgeous mademoiselle and make you feel like wearing white lace all Spring long. Think Kiera Knightley in a Jane Austen film.

Gucci Guilty: this “it” scent has been on the scene for a while and it definitely makes a bold statement: strong, sultry, and bold; a good choice for nights out. Think Charlize Theron.

Ralph Lauren Romance: another all-around nice, light, fresh fragrance that is great for day or evening. Think pink, the color, not the singer.

Tocca Colette: a gorgeous fragrance that transports you to Tuscan hills in Spring: chic, exotic and the feeling of a mademoiselle in Italy even though it is born in the U.S.A. Think Diane Lane in Under the Tuscan Sun.

Viktor and Rolf Flowerbomb: Yes, this is no new kid on the block. It has been around the block a few times, even in rap songs, yet it continues to impress, much like Gucci Guilty. It is strong, bold, makes a statement but laced with cotton-candy sweetness to keep it girly. Think J-Lo, the original Jenny from the block.

Which will you choose for your Spring fragrance fling?
