WIN YOUR BIG-DAY BRIDAL FRAGRANCE For Elie Saab’s latest fragrance launch, Le Parfum Bridal, Mr Saab worked with Aurelien Guichard of Takasago House for this latest fragrance creation; Guichard was inspired by the iconic bridal dresses of the Couture House and based the fragrance around the different layers of satin and lace used by the designer. Presented in the iconic Elie Saab Le Parfum bottle, it’s adorned with a floral lace motif taken from a dress in the Elie Saab Bridal Collection – evoking the delicate lace of a bridal veil. A luminous, woody, musky scent with a floral bouquet composed of ylang-ylang and orange blossom, these dazzling notes are enveloped by Madagascan vanilla and ambroxan, while ambrette adds the ultimate sparkle to the fragrance for brides. Available from The Perfume Shop in store and online at www.theperfumeshop.com priced from £49 for 30ml. County Wedding Magazines is giving readers the chance to win a 90ml bottle for their big day.
