Korres Vanilla Freesia Lychee 50ml RRP £24
Korres, as I’m sure you know, is a Greek cosmetics company
with an ethos entirely natural, creating a variety of natural beauty products
on a base of homeopathy, hence this naturally scented and naturally named eau
de toilette. For me, the initial attraction is to a perfume free from parabens, mineral oil, silicones and ethanolamines,
but then I discovered the scent, which is quite wonderful, frankly! I had been
slightly concerned that the vanilla would be of that sickly sweet culinary
variety, which at first makes you want to eat the product, but soon becomes
less appealing. Not so! Although there is something rather appetizing about the
scent, the dusky smoky freesia notes prevent it from being overtly foody, while
the lychee adds a fruity vibrancy to the mix. This is a grown-up lasting scent
which subtly caresses the skin, rather than imposing itself on the rest of the
room.
