Special edition Daisy release celebrates 10th anniversar­y

- Aleesha Harris

What it is: A special-edition release of the Marc Jacobs Daisy eau de toilette in celebratio­n of the scent’s 10th anniversar­y.

The release features two new bottle designs: a limited-edition iteration and a Deluxe version.

Each includes the original flower-topped bottle designs, but with a twist. (Crystal-centred flowers and a frosted bottle for the former and a slightly mirrored bottle and a hand-paved topper featuring more than a thousand tiny crystals for the collector’s edition.)

While the exteriors have been given an update to mark the occasion, the elixir inside remains unchanged.

The scent, which was originally billed as being “timeless, yet young-at-heart,” is untouched.

The fragrance features top notes of violet leaf, grapefruit and strawberri­es; heart notes of gardenia, violet and jasmine; and base notes of sandalwood, vanilla and musk.

We say: Whether you’re a fan of this iconic Marc Jacobs fragrance, or are simply intrigued by the fancy bottle, you won’t be disappoint­ed by this new release.

The Daisy scent is pretty and playful without being too young or sweet.

Our tester was pleased with the smell on initial spritz, and enjoyed the way it remained light on the skin (although it’s not as long-wearing as some might hope).

The overall effect of the fruit-and-floral mix is a universall­y appealing scent that can work day or night — year round. Where to get it: Hudson’s Bay

What it will cost you: $118 for 100 mL
