 “The
perfume you wear represents your personality and enhances it. I
am fond of Forever and Ever by Christian Dior. For a night out,
I prefer Angel by Thierry Mugler. The Vanilla spray from Body Shop
offers a fresh and fruity fragrance.”
Her olfactory senses have never let her down. However, she talks
of a purchase that was influenced by the bottle and not its scent.
She says, “I was compelled to buy this perfume by Jean-Paul Gaultier
because the bottle was shaped like a woman. I have never done something
like that before.”
While she owns a number of brands, she is keen to pick up the perfume
launched by singer P. Diddy.

“A good perfume is like an aura; it is an extension of your
being. It is also an absolute must-have against Mumbai’s humid weather.
Initially, I experimented with different scents and could boast
of extensive collection. However, over the last few years, I have
settled on two brands and am faithful to them. One of them is the
Clinique Happy, which has an invigorating lingering aroma. The scent
is truly in sync with its name. For the evenings, I prefer Tommy
Hilfiger’s True Star.”
Quite content with his present selection, he is now looking forward
to creating a scent that is unique to him. He explains, “There is
a shop in London where you need to spend time sampling different
fragrances. After some deliberation, a special scent is created
and named after you. I plan to visit this perfume outlet during
my next trip to London.”

”Perfumes are more than just indulgences; they give us a separate
identity. A good perfume works like an energy booster — it can uplift
your mood. For the last four years, I have been completely devoted
to a perfume by Issey Makey. But occasionally, I do use fragrances
by Versace and Giorgio Armani. A fresh, fruity fragrance is appropriate
for day wear. For the evenings, I prefer a spicy fragrance.”

The right perfume can add that classy touch to your ensemble.
If his collection is any indication, then the actor truly believes
this. He proudly explains, “I love to collect perfumes and have
two designated sections in my wardrobe; one for packed bottles and
the other for the ones that I am using right now. Some of my favourite
scents are Polo, Safari, Ralph Lauren and Davidoff. Scents by Armani,
Bvlgari and Calvin Klein are my choice for the day and Drakkar Noir
for an evening out.”

“I have always been fond of deodorants and perfumes. It’s important
to smell good and I am particular about my fragrance. My collection
includes perfumes by Cartier, Calvin Klein and Polo Blue. Earlier,
I would buy a number of perfumes, but for the last three years I’ve
been using Cool Water by Davidoff. I find it absolutely refreshing.
I prefer woody scents to floral ones. I want to pick up the Michael
Jordan perfume. I have heard a lot about it.”

“I love natural scents; wet earth after the first rainfall.
I like perfumes, which have a soft lingering and pleasant aroma.
During the day, I prefer Cool Water by Davidoff, which is light
and breezy. It’s very feminine. In the evenings, I like to wear
Happy by Clinique which is floral and fresh. I occasionally spray
on some Hugo Boss perfume too.”
