The story behind the bottle.

Scentsation editorial

Gabriela Chelariu crafted Sparkling Blush for Michael Kors in 2018, positioning it as an Oriental Floral fragrance that captures the essence of modern elegance and freshness. The composition opens with litchi and pear, bringing a vibrant fruitiness to the fore before transitioning into a heart of frangipani, magnolia, jasmine, rose, and lily. These white florals create a lush, sweet bouquet that is both delicate and bold. The base notes of vanilla, sandalwood, amber, and vetiver add depth and warmth, rounding out the scent with a sensual finish.

How to wear it

Apply this fragrance in light layers; it blooms beautifully within minutes. The fruity top notes are brief but impactful, so aim for quick spritzes to keep the floral heart and woody base dominant throughout the day.
