66 VEGASMAGAZINE.COM SCENTS OF STYLE TAKE NOTE! SPRING'S HOTTEST RUNWAY TRENDS BLEND PERFECTLY WITH THE SEASON'S MOST INTOXICATING EAUX. BY CHRISTINA CLEMENTE PHOTOGRAPHY BY JEFF CRAWFORD Gone are the days of committing yourself to a single signature scent. Like your closet—filled with wardrobe basics, but transformed each season with on-trend pieces that ensure your personal style evolves with the times—your fragrances should be a means of self-expression. Each one reflects a day's particular mood. "Fragrance and fashion are historically linked," says legendary perfumer Francis Kurkdjian. "I do believe that one should have a fragrance wardrobe, a mix of ageless classics and fashionable trends." Kelly St. John, VP of beauty at Neiman Marcus, agrees: "A fragrance wardrobe is expected and encouraged, allowing our customers to select something that fits the day's inspiration." It's only fitting, then, that the season's strongest fashion looks pair so seamlessly with today's boldest scents. PHOTOGRAPHY BY GETTY IMAGES (RUNWAY, PALM TREES) FUN IN THE SUN THIS SEASON'S RETRO, BEACH-INSPIRED APPAREL CALLS FOR LOTS OF ZEST. Sunny beaches and succulent fruits came to mind when models wafted down the Spring 2017 runways in retro swim caps and lemon-printed frocks for Miu Miu and Altuzarra. And the latest fragrances are conjuring up the same optimistic outlook: Ralph Lauren's new Summer Blossom, says master perfumer Harry Fremont, "provokes a moment of luminous happiness" with its notes of sparkling mandarin and guava, while Marc Jacobs's Daisy Dream Kiss Edition is bursting with grapefruit and blackberry. Light is a focus of both Louis Vuitton's Mille Feux, which blends raspberry and leather, and Sole di Positano, a sun-drenched citrus juice from Tom Ford. And Michael Kors's Turquoise will transport you to the sea, thanks to a fleur de sel accord harvested from the cerulean waters off the French coast.
