What's your star sign scent?

There’s an easier way to find your signature perfume – simply answer one question: when were you born? Your Zodiac influences your personality and preferences, and so we’ve looked to the stars to select the best-suited scent for your sign.

ARIES (March 21 – April 19)
Strong-willed Aries are typically creative and highly driven individuals. Known for their fiery temperament and passion, an Aries suits an intense fragrance with a rare floral blend at its heart. The red jasmine flower is as unique and tantalising as you are Aries, so look no further than My Red Eau du Parfum.

TAURUS (April 20  - May 20)
The most stubborn of the Zodiac signs, they’re also the most loyal. Taurians are known for their generosity and patience, making them loving and reliable friends. With an eye for all things beautiful, and a sensual persona, you should wear Amber Elixir; its warm amber notes recall your element, the Earth.

GEMINI (May 21 – June 20)
One word: Unpredictable. But this changeable temperament also brings adaptability, an affectionate temperament and charisma. Belonging to the element Air, your playful persona should be complemented by a bright fragrance. The scent of wild strawberries and uplifting floral notes found in  Paradise are as spirited as              you are.

CANCER (June 21 – July 22)
Cancerians love the home. Ruled by the moon, they need time to themselves, but they are the most committed of friends, freely offering sympathy and advice when needed. Preferring something lighter, Cancer’s should look to an eau de toilette that is soft and reassuring: the   scent of Royal White Lily at the heart of Eclat Mademoiselle will comfort  and delight.

LEO (July 23 – August 22)
Opinionated Leos naturally lead the pack. They are powerful individuals who will never shy away from conflict, but beneath their big exteriors sits a generous and loving persona. It could only be Possess Eau de Parfum [DB5] for you Leos, inspired by Cleopatra, with intoxicating ylang ylang notes, this fragrance is as hypnotic as you are.

VIRGO (August 23 – September 21)
Virgo’s are perfectionists. They are inquisitive types with analytical minds, and because they are observers by nature, they are also astute at helping others. Your reliable nature recalls Enigma, an eau du parfum that holds the intimate aroma of the soft cotton flower at its core.

LIBRA (September 22 – October 23)
There’s a reason that Libra’s are depicted as scales. Well-balanced and just, the gentle Libra is a lover of the outdoors. Ruled by Venus, you are a romantic at heart and search for beauty in all you do. Elvie, which captures the scent of lily of the valley that grows in the Scandinavian forest, is as harmonious as you are. 

SCORPIO (October 24 – November 21)
Brave and dependable, the Scorpio-born are decisive (and stubborn!). Out of all of the Zodiacs you are the best at keeping secrets, but this calm disposition, masks a passionate core. The untamed Ginger Flower found in So Fever Her has a fiery warmth and mysteriousness akin              to your temperament.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22 – December 21)
With your adventurous spirit and your energetic attitude, your scent is without a doubt, Voyager her. Sagittarians are optimists, who love nothing more than exploration. Ruled by Jupiter at times you can be tactless, but like Voyager, you are vibrant and exotic, with sweetness and surprise at your core.

CAPRICORN (December 22 – January 19)
Capricorns are traditionalists. As an Earth sign, you are well-grounded and independent, and yes, some may say intolerant at times. You will appreciate the timeless quality of Giordani Gold Eau de Parfum; the sun-ripened mandarin, patchouli and Madonna lily, have the same self-assuredness you pride yourself in.

ACQUARIUS (January 20 – February 18)
Easily adaptable and driven by intellect, Aquarians are truth-seekers. Of the element Air, you hate to be held back and constrained, and at times you can be over-sensitive. Like Divine  you are light and sensual; the scent of white musk and sandalwood will suit your inviting personality.

PISCES (February 19 – March 20)
If “beautiful living” had a scent, it would be Giordani Gold Essenza, and Pisces love nothing more than to live their lives beautifully. You express your emotions freely, but at times this can be perceived as naive. This floral, woody fragrance has the exclusive Orange Blossom at its core, a scent the artistic Piscean will              delight in.
