The Fragrance Shop App and Discovery Club Box

With so many fragrances to choose from, finding the perfect scent can often prove tricky, if you're anything like me you'll probably have about 27 on the go at once. I like to tailor my scent to my mood, my outfit and where I'm headed that day. Some days I wake up and want to throw on a pretty dress and skip off to a florists exuding Marc Jacobs Daisy. Other days I want to dress all in black and stalk around the make-up counters oozing YSL Black Opium. Then there are the days I want to rock my lilac fur jacket and silver brogues to sit in a tendy cafe sipping lattes and scenting the air with Jimmy Choo Blossom

Thanks to The Fragrance Shop’s ‘Discovery Club’, I'm now able to indulge my fickle fragrance whims by exploring the exciting world of fragrance all year round

When you join the club you receive a box each quarter containing samples that have been carefully hand-picked by The Fragrance Shop experts. The samples are a mixture of male and female fragrances and club members can expect to discover both new launches and classic bestsellers throughout the year. In addition to this, each box also contains an information booklet, as well as discount vouchers for each of the featured fragrances. The Fragrance Shop is proud supporter of charity. 5p of every transaction both in-store and online goes towards spraying a little happiness into the lives of seriously ill children, a cause close to my heart

The current box, which I was kindly sent, focuses on classic fragrance. These give members of the Discovery Club the chance to rediscover some of the biggest and most popular scents. Amongst the ten fragrances featured are Nina Ricci’s ‘Nina’, Paco Rabanne’s ‘Lady Million Eau My Gold!’ and Hugo Boss ‘BOSS Bottled.’ I fell head over heels for "Nina" and the mens fragrances gave me some great tips for birthday presents

Those who get the taste for discovery and want to explore a little further can download The Fragrance Shop’s innovative new free app, MyFragranceApp (available on iOS and Android) by searching for ‘My Fragrance App’ on the app store. Among its many features is the ability to build a personal scent profile based on your own preferences and receive recommendations by answering questions about your style and personality – making it a first for fragrance. It's super easy to use:

 Once you've selected your options and spend limit the app sends you your results, a selection of new fragrance options tailored to you!

The app and the Discovery box have opened up a whole new world of fragrance to me and I can't wait to get my hands on a fresh new scent for every occasion, outfit and mood. I'll definitely be adding "perfume hoarding to my list of talents!
