Fleur de Me

The final touch to any outfit & the one thing I cant leave home without is scent. When asked about personal style, I always think your choice of perfume defines you just as much as any shirt or dress. The amazingly talented photographer, Hugh Stewart captured the substance of each of my favourite perfumes in these perfect still lifes.

ESTEE LAUDER Private Collection tuberose/gardenia

When I wear: Weekends
Anecdote: The fragrance comes from the two flowers that Estee Lauder (herself) appreciated most, gardenia and tuberose.

TOM FORD Santal Blush

When I wear: Evenings out
Fact: It’s base comes from Australian sandalwood & cedar. Trust Tom Ford to create a perfume that’s so sexy that it stirs up conversation whenever I wear it.

ANNICK GOUTAL  Eau d’Hadrien

When I wear: For important work meetings and when Im in Paris (where I 1st discovered it 15yrs ago)
I never knew: It’s actually a fragrance for women and men.

Grandiflora, Magnolia

When I wear: The start of summer
A First:  This soon to be released perfume is the 1st for famous Sydney florist Saskia Havekes of Grandiflora, for pre-orders email fragrance@grandiflora.net

A must do:  If you’re in Sydney on the 16/17th August you have to get your personal portrait taken by Hugh Stewart himself, at the M.J.Bale Woollahra store.

Keeping it Surreal

When I think of the ideal summer soiree, I think the Hamptons in LongIsland, New York. If you’re heading there the 3 do’s are Moby Dicks Montauk, Waldmann Inc fine jewellery Southampton and a day in Sag Harbor.
