The first time I smelt a really boozy fragrance was in the late 90s, I was a baby beauty editor and it was Kors by Michael Kors.
The juice provided a punch of cognac to open, followed by red wine in the mid notes. Warm, spicy, sexy and addictive, it was like nothing else. While discontinued in the early Aughts (although now going on eBay for just shy of £200, if it’s even real), notes like rum, gin and whisky have been adding depth, richness or sparkle to scents ever since with good reason.
