If you're a fashionista there is nowhere quite like New York City when it comes to style. That's the inspiration behind a new energising scent from Elizabeth Arden. By Trudi Brewer.
Elizabeth Arden My Fifth Avenue Parfum Spray, 100ml $109.
What is it?
The brand describes this new fragrance as a sparkling, fresh floral, with the vibrancy and energy that can transport you to 5th Ave, in NYC.
What's in it?
The zesty scent of mandarin hits you the moment you spray it on the skin, followed by fresh, watery lotus flower, and sweet heady jasmine. But it's after an hour that you get the whiff of powdery orris root courtesy of the iris flower, an ingredient that gives this fragrance its musky warmth.
Who can wear it?
If it's good enough for Reese Witherspoon, Elizabeth Arden's brand ambassador and face of this new fragrance, then it's good enough for us. Anything that transports us to the city that never sleeps is worth sharing. And to sum up how you may feel wearing this new fragrance - in the words of Witherspoon, after her first trip to New York as a budding actress. "It felt so much larger than life, but also left me feeling the city's incredible energy, and like anything was possible."
