I’ve been searching for a new scent for quite some time now. Byblos Paris is still my go to everyday scent, but I needed something new, fresh and not as recognizable. Well, today I think I found her. Balenciaga’s new scent that was released early this year. It’s the first perfume release since “Cristobal” in 1998 and the first for head designer Nicolas Ghesquiere.

It’s a light sweet scent with a hint of floral but not romantic. It definitely has urban nuances to it and after sometime, the woody elements of the perfume begin to reveal itself. The campaign was shot by famous fashion photographer Steve Meisel and singer/actress Charlotte Gainsbourg was chosen to be the face of Balenciaga Paris perfume.

$150 CAD for 75 ml only at The Bay.
