Every year, the summers become hotter and hotter {hey there, you nasty hole in the ozone ?}, and the desire to remove layers that we had wrapped around ourselves during the cold seasons, of clothing and of makeup, becomes much more urgent.

This issue is extremely relevant when it comes to perfumes, too – if during the winter we have a clear preference for sweet, deep and heavy fragrances, then the summers brings along launches of perfumes that are a lot more fresh and floral.

Two new Michael Kors perfumes that were recently released as a limited edition meet the definition of summer fragrances – the kind that make you want to order a plane ticket to an exotic island far away and sip coconut water straight out of the nut.

*Sexy Sunset – This perfume was inspired by the glamor of summer sunsets. The fragrance opens with a freshness of an Asian pear and blackcurrant combined with lotus flowers and freesia, and continues in an amazing mix of rich peonies and gardenias, miniature roses, magnolia and jasmine and is closed with woody tones of musk, cedar and vanilla.

The perfume bottle is similar to the brand’s Gold Collection, long and rectangular with a gold cover, but the transparent glass has a golden glow that reveals the liquid’s pinkish color, hinting the colors of sunsets that the scent is influenced by.

{ Price : 50 ml / 545 NIS, 100 ml / 655 NIS}

*Coral – This fragrance was inspired by sun-drenched beaches and the coral color that’s dominant in the Italian Riviera, with the colorful houses in the town Portofino.

The fragrance opens with fruity and floral scents, combining citrus fruits like grapefruit, lemon peels, tangerines and a tingling of blackcurrant and pink pepper, continuing sweetly with fresh raspberry supported by floral orange blossoms, the tuberose flower and an exotic touch of jasmine, and closed with a velvety musk scent.

The bottle’s design, in this case, too, is associated with the brand and continues the square shape with a golden cap, and in this case the glass is in a deep coral shade – that fits the perfume’s name.

The Bottom Line :

These are two very feminine, exotic and fresh fragrances. The bottles and the scents the epitome of the L.A. Woman in my opinion, the one that’s associated strongly with the brand ‘Michael Kors’.

These fragrances are suitable for women who love delicate and pleasant scents, and this is the reason they are better for the day-time and not so much for a night out at a bar or clubbing {they pretty much disappear there…}.

Since both fragrances are Eau de Parfum, they last just a few hours and then you should reapply them if you want to “wear” them from morning to night, and I recommend reading this guide that will help you make the scent last longer.

If you’re looking for a summer fragrance, you should definitely consider these perfumes. They both smell wonderful, each in their own way, but you should definitely try them at a drugstore before buying one to decide which goes better with your body’s natural scent {for instance, I prefer the first one }.
