Jimmy Choo Fever is the latest in the brands fabulous collection of decadent scents.
Evocative,
powerful, bewitching and mesmerizing, Fever is a beautiful fragrance.
Described as
a floral gourmand, its just my kind of perfume- elegant and feminine, yet deep,
sweet and addictive too.
To be
honest, the packaging and bottle says everything that you need to know about
the fragrance captured within!
The vessel is
the signature Jimmy bottle however it has been is adorned with a deep, intense plum
lacquer which allows the fragrance to radiate from within as the light dances
on its multi-faceted form.
Its iconic
square cap has been draped in a rich plum shade to match the bottle and edged
in metallic
gold, a subtle
hint of the luxury and decadence of the scent itself.
I rarely pay
much attention to the outer packaging or boxes when it comes to fragrances, but
Jimmy Choo Fever’s box is so cool it deserves a mention!
The box
features the iconic snakeskin texture of Jimmy Choo’s shoes and accessories and
has been
reinterpreted
with a metallic plum effect that mirrors and captures the light while its
embossed elements offer a true to life texture.
It really is quite stunning.
So, onto the
scent itself.
As mentioned
earlier it is a delicious blend of floral and gourmand with neither taking
center stage.
The
fragrance opens with a rich, juicy black plum which is blended with fresh,
sweet notes of lychee which is countered by a subtle bitterness of grapefruit.
Heart notes
of powdery helitrope combine with exotic vanilla orchid which blend and
contrast with the floral femininity of Jasmine.
Creamy
sandalwood, warm benzoin and roasted tonka bean round off the scent leaving and
intoxicating fragrance that oozes an almost palpable sensuality.
It is
absolutely my favourite of all the Jimmy Choo scents to date, so if like me you
love a warm, seductive yet not overly floral fragrance then you’re going to
adore Jimmy Choo Fever.
Jimmy Choo
Fever is available now from The Fragrance Shop and costs £56.50 for 60ml.
