Moschino Gold Fresh Couture



Moschino have done it again!

Just when you think you’d seen it all and were captivated and enthralled by their original Fresh Couture they’ve gone and topped it!




Meet Moschino Gold Fresh Couture, the third and possibly most luxurious of their iconic cleaning spray bottle inspired scents!

Gold Fresh Couture is a playful, surprising and delightful fragrance which combines an array of addictive and joyful accents to create a floral yet woody scent steeped in femininity.




As like it predecessors, the concept of its eye catching bottle was to juxtapose the mundane and commonplace household cleaning spray with something special, luxurious and beautiful; the glorious fragrance within.

Gold Fresh Couture is without a doubt my favourite of the three scents to date thanks to its intoxicating, feminine and delicious blend of exotic notes.




It opens with a refreshing and juicy hit of white peach, yellow mandarine orpur and pear and rhubarb granita which offer a delectable and light experience. 

Refreshing and sweet it captures you immediately, before heart notes of jasmine, mahonial and golden chain orchid (scenttrek) create a softer, delicately floral element that softens the initial juicy hit creating a more feminine and sensual experience.




Base notes of sandalwood, musk, akigalawood and creamy vanilla offer a warming softness which rounds off the fragrance to perfection.

It’s quite unlike any fragrance I’ve tried before, but in a good way.




It is delicious and addictive, soft and sweet and in my opinion really is a huge contrast from what I would expect to be housed in such a bottle.

They say to never judge a book by its cover or a fragrance by its bottle but its hard not to, and Gold Fresh Couture is nothing like I was expecting!




Elegant yet fun it’s the perfect fragrance for springtime; think sunny days and playful weekends!

Moschino Gold Fresh Couture is available now and costs £80 for the 100ml bottle pictured.

Moschino Fresh Couture Eau De Toilette



I have to admit when I first saw this fragrance I thought it was an april fools joke! After all, it looks JUST like a bottle of household cleaner, and who would buy that!?

Let’s be honest, a fragrance bottled in packaging that resembles window cleaning spray hardly makes you think ‘oooh, I bet that smells AMAZING I MUST try it!’




Well actually, for me It really made me want to try it just to see what kind of fragrance it really was!
 
So, designed by Creative Director Jeremy Scott, the concept for Moschino's Fresh Couture eau de toilette was to juxtapose the mundane and commonplace of all products (the household cleaner) with something precious (the juice of a luxury brands fragrance.)

Yep, I like that, very clever and VERY different!




But what does it actually smell like?

I think you’ll be surprised by the scent within- it is a really light, fresh and clean scent with top notes of mandarin, bergamot and ylang ylang.




Raspberry offers a fresh and juicy contrast to floral heart notes of white peony and osmanthus while base notes of clear woods, white patchouli and ambrox round the scent off perfectly.




Being housed in such a distinctive bottle I expected the fragrance to be quite unique, strong and possibly heady but actually it’s a very pleasant, wearable everyday scent.

It is a fairly expensive perfume retailing at £65 for 100ml but lets be honest, it’s a pretty special fragrance in a very special bottle!




You can get your own Moschino Fresh Couture  Eau De Toilette from Selfridges now where it costs £65.
