Dot by Marc Jacobs


Dot by Marc Jacobs
The sweet smell of success?

He is back, the wonderful fashion designer who has been dabbling in the perfume world. Following on from Daisy, Lola and Honey with his fun, extreme interpretation of a perfume bottle. What else is to be expected of a designer of his magnitude?

The latest, a round red bottle with black polka dots, grandiose black petals, looks like a lady bird with butterflies that have joined in for the ride.

The top notes sweep into an exotic scent of dragon fruit with red berries and coconut to give a tropical sweetness. The middle notes flutter into the offering with the floral edge of honeysuckle, the all enticing jasmine and orange blossom.

The scent then spreads its wings starting with subtle coconut water, then bringing on the lasting depth vanilla, our scent of the week, driftwood and musk to give the lingering edge to keep you gliding along.

The top perfume names associated with the making of Dot are Annie Gottlieb and Ann Buzantian both known for their individual contributions to the industry, behind many notable perfumes and celebrity scents.

With this trio collaborating chances are it has staying power, it certainly does on me!
