As any longtime blog readers will know, whenever I get really excited about something, I’ll post a preview. Elie Saab is one of my favorite designers (just check my Pinterest style board for proof), and I couldn’t help but snap a million pictures as soon as I saw the bottle.
Speaking of which? I came home to find that my former photo setup has been demolished. Sneaky dad taking advantage of my absence! So in the meantime, I’m shooting in a sub-par location.
I haven’t sniffed the juice (created by perfumer Francis Kurkdjian) just yet, having spent much of my time completely transfixed by the packaging. Elie Saab cites light as the driving factor behind the bottle’s design, and it certainly does catch light in the most beautiful ways. Ironically, it’s most stunning in that yellowy, awful low light I try my best to avoid.
Who else loves Elie Saab? Have any of you sniffed this fragrance? Thoughts?

Pretty! Haven’t taken a sniff of this one, but I so want to. It’s pink! And the bottle is pure gorgeousness. Nuff said.
And it’s an apricot-ish classy pink
Bonus point?
I think I have sniffed this one and wasn’t impressed, but the bottle is pretty!
It is
The bottle is so gorgeous, would look lovely on any vanity. I am not surprised you are excited about this! It looks awesome.
Definitely loving how it looks on my dresser!
I think I remember liking this one! The bottle is pretty! Almost precious you could say.
My precioussss
The bottle looks absolutely stunning! Love how the different cuts and corners catch the light (albeit yellowy, but still)!
Agreed! Half the fun of owning a perfume is staring at the bottle all day long.
Yep, this is a pretty sexy bottle, I gotta say!! I don’t know anything about the designer and even less probably about scents, but if it smells as it looks, YUM!!
Ohh, you have to check out his designs! They’re beautiful, but always sexy in an understated way too, and gorgeous detail work.
It smells delicious. I’m getting on very well with this indeed.
It’s too sweet for me as a scent but I also love the designer and the bottle!
It seems like it would be that way for a lot of people, and yet I gourmand scent fans probably won’t like it either because it’s not sweet in a gourmand way. His designs are quite gorgeous, aren’t they?
