We're often asked for recommendations for fragrances to wear to work. Often, it's as much the concentration as the fragrance itself which is relevant: eau de toilette is always going to be less 'intrusive' than eau de parfum (and forget about perfume itself for the office – except perhaps for the office party!) These, though, are great choices for days when you want to experience the pleasure of applying scent, but don't want to overwhelm. Tapping into the trend for 'fragrance mists' which has swept Japan and the US, Yardley London is launching five of their most-loved scents as Moisturising Fragrance Body Mists: 97% natural, and completely non-staining. (Good for spritzing a cotton scarf or pashmina, then, too.)

Enjoy them in the much-loved fragrances April Violets, English Bluebell, English Rose, English Lavender and Lily of the Valley. And if you keep them in the fridge right now, they'll also work as a summer cool-down.

(Probably best to use the home fridge rather than the office's, though, unless you want to watch the level drop dramatically as your colleagues make the most of them, too!)
