My Look: Knowing

Knowing – Knowledge is everything. Knowledge sets you free. Knowledge is sexy. Knowledge is power. And so is the perfect scent. Just as knowledge can be enticing and powerful, so too can a fragrance leave a memorable impression. It speaks to how certain qualities – whether intellectual or sensory – have the ability to command attention, evoke emotion, and convey a sense of confidence or charisma. I have fallen in love with Knowing Legacy from the first spritz. Created by Frédéric Malle for the self-assured woman who knows who she is and what she wants, it is a sophisticated, luxurious and confident scent.

«Knowing Legacy is all about skin, fire and a long night.» – Frédéric Malle

Knowing Legacy expands the original rich and luxurious essence of smouldering amber and sandalwood, while notes of black currant and lavish orris push the sensual fragrance even further. It is seductive, full of feminine energy, for the «Eve» within you!

My look: Eve belted crystal-embellished crepe jumpsuiticon, and matching Eve embellished velvet toteicon, both by Clio Peppiatt, Angel leather platform sandals by Gucci, and crystal-embellished snake necklace by Alessandra Rich.

Estée Lauder – The Legacy Collection

Let me introduce you to THE LEGACY COLLECTION that reimagines five of Estée Lauder’s iconic original scents through a contemporary lens by another extraordinary scent artist, Frédéric Malle.

KNOWING LEGACY

Knowing Legacy expands the original rich and luxurious essence of smouldering amber and sandalwood, while notes of black currant and lavish orris push the sensual fragrance even further.

CHYPRE FLORAL
Top Notes: Raspberry, Blackcurrant
Middle Notes: Rose damascena, Orris concrete
Base Notes: Patchouli, Sandalwood, Vetiver, Amber (labdanum), Styrax

WHITE LINEN LEGACY

The crisp, clean scent of freshly laundered linen is among the most enticing the fragrance world has to offer, and one that Mrs. Estée Lauder captured with the White Linen eau de parfum. White Linen Legacy is an evolution of the original masterpiece, with keeping its breathtaking richness with notes of lush jasmine and rose on a base of amber and vetiver and evolving it for the 21st century.

FLORAL ALDEHYDE
Top Notes: Aldehyde
Middle Notes: Rose, Jasmine
Base Notes: Amber (mainly labdanum), Musk, Vetiver, Cedarwood

AZURÉE LEGACY

The original Azurée fragrance was inspired by the Mediterranean warmth of Mrs. Estée Lauder’s vacation home on the French Riviera. Like all five of the Legacy fragrances, Frédéric Malle maintains the essence of the original but brings it into the contemporary realm. In the case of Azurée Legacy, expect the warmth of the French Riviera sun with the heat of sandalwood, leather and fragrant herbs, while the addition of cumin adds modern sensual appeal. «Azure Legacy is really a second skin perfume.. It will accompany a sensuous woman day and night,» says Frédéric Malle.

WOODY AROMATIC
Top Notes: Cardamon, Basil, Tarragon
Middle Notes: Jasmine, Clove, Clary sage
Base Notes: Patchouli, Oak moss vetiver, Sandalwood, Cumin, Leather

ESTÉE LEGACY

«Sleek, cool, sophisticated. Think of velvety voices. Think of light in champagne.» – Mrs. Estée Lauder once said on her original masterpiece. Estée Legacy maintains the essence of the original – the second fragrance created by Mrs. Estée Lauder – with a quiet sensuality achieved by sweetly floral notes of jasmine and rose on a base of musk.

FLORAL MUSK
Top Notes: Carnation accord (Clove, Jasmine, Rose)
Middle Notes: Ylang ylang
Base Notes: Sandalwood, Amber accord, Musk, Honey

PRIVATE COLLECTION LEGACY

The signature green of the original Private Collection eau de parfum shines through in the Private Collection Legacy fragrance, with bold notes of green accord that are reinforced with rose and jasmine to create a lush bouquet.

FLORAL GREEN
Top Notes: Green accord (Basil, Tarragon, Galbanum)
Middle Notes: Jasmine sambac, Rose
Base Notes: Patchouli, Sandalwood, Oakmoss, Musk
