The fragrance industry is going through a rapid evolution. From planet-friendly extraction methods to recycled glass and organic ink packaging. Sustainability is the driving force behind the latest innovation, a case in point with these tiny, innovative single-dose fragrance capsules. Created to go with you anywhere, each capsule contains an alcohol-free gel fragrance that fits in your handbag or pocket. Created using natural ingredients, they are alcohol-free and don’t contribute to any plastic waste; each little aluminium tin holds 30 capsules. It is made to twist the top of the capsule to release the gel, and then you dot it onto the skin. There are three Marc Jacobs Daisy classic scents - read on to discover this cute new trend.
MARC JACOBS DAISY LOVE DROPS, 30 CAPSULES, $55.
What do they smell like?
For sweet scent lovers, this fragrance has an edible quality, thanks to cloudberries, daisy tree petals, cashmere musk and driftwood. While sweet, it has a tangy bite that softens after a few hours. It’s an uplifting but lasting and great way of carrying around a long-wearing perfume.
MARC JACOBS DAISY DROPS, 30 CAPSULES, $55.
The freshest of all the capsules, jasmine, sandalwood and wild berries make for a sparkling floral fragrance. While new, it also has a powdery quality. This is a stunning summery fragrance- you can dab it on your neck during summer, (thanks to its alcohol-free formula), and it lasts on the skin for hours.
MARC JACOBS DAISY EAU SO FRESH EDT DROPS, 30 CAPSULES, $55.
These gorgeous pale pink capsules blend grapefruit, wild rose, pear, apple blossom and cedarwood. These drops are fruity with a sensual twist. The musky notes in Eau So Fresh make these drops a gorgeous evening scent option.
