With a seemingly never-ending barrage of rain, mist and wind, you could definitely be forgiven for craving anything that is going to remotely signal that spring is actually around the corner. It feels as though winter has now rumbled on for far too long, and the promised warmth is showing no signs of arriving anytime soon. Unfortunately I can’t control the weather, but I can point you in the direction of a little scented sunshine. So, grab your passport because we’re heading to Menton, the undisputed home of the lemon, to discover the deliciously tangy Eau de Menton Citron d’Été from Prestige de Menton.
One of the joys of summer is a welcome return to the glorious eau de cologne style of scent. The effervescent and bright explosion of citrus and aromatics is wonderfully cooling and incredibly uplifting. This category of fragrance has seen a remarkable resurgence in recent years, accompanied by some ridiculous price tags, but there are still some classic companies that have never stopped producing their celebration of sunshine. One such brand is Presitge de Menton and, after two years of sympathetic updating, their new Eau de Menton collection retains the original Provençal charm but adds a touch of Parisian chic.
