Asklov - A Summer with Jane
"With Asklöv's A Summer with Jane, perfumer Aude Brenier-Asklöv imagines an early morning in a market in the South of France. As the stall holders set up, a glamorous woman weaves in and out of the boxes and baskets of fruit and flowers. Her attire is simple and understated, her allure is immense; a striped t shirt and jeans, a straw basket over her arm."
Top: Bergamot, Peach, Middle: Lavender, Petitgrain, Base: Cedarwood, Vanilla
Described as 'parred down' and 'understated,' this new fragrance is full of citrus and florals, it is true that it is a fragrance that does not overwhelm it's wearer but seems to emphasise the best things about summertime, brushing through flowering hedges and walking through wild flower fields. It is a ideal fragrance for the young or someone that prefers more subtle scents.
