Today we’re helping Julie, who wants to find a new summer fragrance. She lives in inland Southern California, and they do get some strong summer heat. Her perfect scent will make her feel light and energetic, but will also have a little complexity. Her price limit is $100, but she’s happy to buy decants, and she’d prefer niche suggestions since she’s already tried much of what is available at Macys, Nordstrom and Sephora. Here is what we know about Julie:
She’s in her late 20s. She says when people first meet her, they might think she’s “just” cute because of her delicate build, vintage-inspired clothes, and curly auburn hair, but they quickly find that she’s a deep thinker with a rich imagination, strong emotions both happy and sad, and a direct way of speaking.
Julie loves books and the stage as well as things that engage the senses — colorful clothing and design, gardening, cooking, and of course perfume.
Julie likes notes of salt, honeysuckle, lime/citrus, bergamot, warm woods, boozy vanilla and skin musk. Her fall/winter favorites are Parfumerie Generale Bois Blond, Demeter Fresh Hay and Anthropologie Cape of Good Hope…
