Bésame Cosmetics Decades of Fragrance - 1960

The result of six years of painstaking research, Bésame Cosmetics’ Decades of Fragrance collection evokes the ‘essence’ of the ages – from the playful decadence of the 1920s to the elegant sophistication of the ‘50s ‘new look’ – these scents are olfactory time capsules; chic (and convenient) vials of precious perfume that encourage you to channel the fabulous flappers, film’s femme fatales of the doe-eyed bombshells of the 1960s. Just choose the ‘spirit’ of your favourite age, or mix and match to suit your mood (and outfit).

The olfactory accompaniment to the ‘60s ‘youthquake’, this is the fragrant incarnation of The Beatles, The Stones and The Beach Boys, worn by long-legged, mini-skirted ingénues with ‘bambi’ lashes and their dancing shoes. A perfect ‘clash’ of classic and modern, the floral chypre boasts top notes of grapefruit, armoise and coriander, layered above rose, reseda, jasmine, patchouli and oakmoss (with a sexy, oriental ‘hum’ of oud). Befitting of Twiggy, Françoise Hardy or Jane Birkin, this is a must for modern ‘mods’ who like their scent with a suggestion of nostalgia. Meticulously researched and crafted from precious, essential oils and natural alcohol, this convenient rollerball can be carried in even the most compact clutch bag – perfect for on-the-go touch-ups.

Apply to pulse points whenever you need to enhance your allure.
