Fragrance Favourites #7: Jessie Williams

Jessie Williams' absolute favourite perfume is Chloé. She prefers to wear this romantic and elegant fragrance in the evening when she goes out or on special occasions. The perfume is characterised by its soft, powdery notes. It combines the freshness of lychee and peony with the warm, floral scent of rose and magnolia, rounded off with a base of cedarwood and amber. A classic feminine fragrance that is a must-have in her collection.

Jessie prefers fresh, floral fragrances for her performances. Her favourite on stage is Gucci Flora, especially the Gorgeous Gardenia and Gorgeous Orchid variants.

Gorgeous Gardenia is a radiant, floral fragrance that smells of jasmine and pear. The clear heart note of white gardenia is rounded off by a warm base of brown sugar and patchouli, giving it a sweet yet elegant aura.

Gorgeous Orchid, on the other hand, surprises with a lively blend of mandarin and blackcurrant in the top note, which transitions into a heart note of tuberose and orchid. Vanilla and patchouli in the base make it a sensual and dynamic fragrance.

In everyday life, Jessie Williams' choice of fragrance depends on the season. In the warm summer months, she likes to keep it light and airy, opting for a body spray such as Sol de Janeiro 62. This fragrance smells like a warm, tropical summer's day and captivates with gourmand notes of pistachio, salted caramel and vanilla. For the colder months, she prefers Elle by Yves Saint Laurent. This perfume is a modern, woody-floral fragrance. With lively top notes of lychee and peony, combined with pink pepper, freesia and a warm heart of patchouli and vetiver, it is the perfect choice when she wants to wear something more distinctive and elegant.

When it comes to men's fragrances, Black XS by Paco Rabanne is her absolute favourite. She loves this scent because her partner and Ankor guitarist David wears it, and she finds the fragrance irresistible. Black XS is a distinctive, woody-oriental fragrance. It opens with a fruity-fresh blend of lemon and sage, which combines with a sweet heart note of praline and cinnamon. The whole is rounded off by a masculine base of black cardamom and patchouli, giving it a sweet-spicy and powerful aura.
