Why it’s Marc Jacobs again, back with an edgier older sister to the Daisy Fragrance. LOLA is described as a “modern free spirit with an irresistible attitude”. I’m absolutely taken by the packaging for the most part – a remarkable silhouette topped with layers of colourful and dramatic petals for the floral cap. Strikingly original I’d say.

Here it is straight from the MJ people:

Marc Jacobs designed LOLA as an electrifying, over-the-top bouquet exploding from the bottle. Twisting layers of fabric, he fashioned the sumptuous swirls of a lavish floral bouquet. The iconic high gloss cap shines with astonishing proportions and playful colours making it irresistible to touch.

As for the scent? See it as the next life stage for Daisy – LOLA is more daring and rich (in scent not…literally).

The Fragrance:

Lola sparkles with fruity topnotes of delectable bright pink peppercorn (!), seductive pear d’anjou and succulent ruby red.

Grapefruit. The ultra-feminine heart is highlighted by the lavish fuschia peony with soft touches of rose and geranium.

The base lingers on skin exuding a warm and seductive aura with enveloping notes of smooth vanilla, tonka bean, and creamy musk.

Thanks to COTY for sending the package my way – I think the zip folder with layers that mimic the fragrance bottle were just icing on the cake!
