‘There are so many! Growing up, we had lilac trees in our garden, and when they were in bloom, the scent was absolute heaven. In my early 20s, I have a vivid memory of a brilliant Sephora store associate recommending L’Eau Par Kenzo to me by saying, “It is life” – and he was correct, it smelled like youth and fresh possibility. Beautiful by Estée Lauder will always remind me of a warm hug from my beloved late grandmother. And every time I wear Gardenia by Chanel, I’m transported to Paris, where I first bought it.’
