There are few perfumes as defined by their stories as is L’Artisan Parfumeur Dzing!. People who have heard about Dzing! but not smelled it still usually know that it’s supposed to smell like a circus — well, either that, or like cardboard.
When Dzing! was launched in 1999, it was called Désir de Cirque. In what surely must be one of its most successful bits of perfume copywriting, L’Artisan described perfumer Olivia Giacobetti’s inspiration for the fragrance as the full range of the circus’s “sights, sounds, smells and tastes”.

On the perfume front, Andrea likes creamy, powdery, soft scents, with floral notes and non-foody vanilla. Some of the scents she likes…
