Scents of the summer

PART ONE

- with HANNAH BRITT

Hooray for the summer! And with a much needed dose of sunshine comes this year's batch of seasonal scents to match.

They're sensational. I've been testing them this week (a hard job, I know, but someone has to do it) and here is part one of my top picks...

Summer trend: SECOND SKIN MUSKS

A scent with a base of musk envelops the skin and has a comforting, second-skin feel to it, which warms up beautifully in the heat of the sun.

TRY:

■ Givenchy Irresistible Nude Velvet, £69 (lookfantastic.com) is a cashmere-luxe, floral woody fragrance with a musky second-skin dry down.
