NEST FRAGRANCES WILD POPPY EAU DE PARFUM

They say: A new fruity-floral fragrance release from Nest that pairs notes of pear, apricot and raspberry with notes of Himalayan Jasmine and Rose de Grasse for an “optimistic and whimsical” scent inspired by the “enchanting" poppy.

We say: This scent is sweet from first spritz. Our tester noticed the juicy fruit notes lingered well into wear before the richer florals came through. Once they did, the overall effect was mature — and fresh.

GIVENCHY LE ROSE PERFECTO COLOR LIP BALM They say: A hybrid colourand-balm lipstick that provides a nourishing, smoothing and plumping action — with a bold kiss of colour. Available in seven shades, as well as a cool holographic hue called White Shield No. 000.

We say: These lipsticks go on seriously smooth. The formula provides bold colour in a few swipes with a subtle shine. We loved the shade 303 Warming Red, a cool red hue that added an instant dose of French-girl glamour. $45 | Holt Renfrew AZZARO CHROME AQUA EAU DE TOILETTE They say: A new scent from Azzaro that builds off the original Chrome scent. The cologne features notes of grapefruit, basil and Haitian vetiver to envelop the skin with the, “intense, ephemeral feeling of aquatic freshness that is felt when the body first hits the water.”

We say: Our tester reports this cologne was “refreshing” and “enjoyable” without being too overwhelming. True to its name, the aqua notes shine through, making it a perfect option for a man who prefers a light scent.
