The newly launched Marc Jacobs Perfect perfume is very Marc Jacobs in its design with eclectic and mismatched charms on the cap that. The modern charms contrast perfectly with the traditional look of the weighted glass base that's reminiscent of vintage perfume bottles.

It has a comforting floral scent that has a timeless appeal with a touch of whimsy. Opening with top notes of rhubarb and daffodil, middle notes of almond milk appear and then it dries down to reveal the base notes of a multifaceted cashmeran.

Get it here -> sephora.sg for $152 (50ml), $184 (100ml).

Christian Louboutin is about to launch their new Loubiworld fragrance collection in Singapore which has seven eau de parfums housed in show-stopping bottles.

Inspired by Christian Louboutin's memories and fantasies, each bottle cap has an ethereal design with plenty of drama. The bottles are also in the iconic red found at the bottom of their coveted stiletto heels.

#4 Yves Saint Laurent Libre Eau de Parfum

Coined as the scent of freedom, the new Libre perfume by Yves Saint Laurent is a sensual and sophisticated fragrance with warm notes of lavender, orange blossom and musk.

Scent, aside, just take a look at that bottle! The sharp angle black cap is adorned with gold chains while the bottle has an oversized and freely blent YSL logo nailed into the glass. This daring and unrestrained design perfectly embodies the androgynous spirit of the brand and we imagine it'll add a bit of luxe badassery to any vanity.

Get it here -> tangs.com for $125.

#5 Guerlain Muguet Millésime

Guerlain has a tradition of releasing new limited edition Muguet fragrances every year and this year's edition is particularly breathtaking. Their signature bee bottle has white porcelain flowers with 24-carat gold-plated wire elegantly cascading down the rounded dome of the bottle.

This fresh floral fragrance has notes of lily of the valley with nuances of bergamot, jasmine and rose.

Unfortunately, this fragrance has sold out on Guarlain's website where it retailed for £450 (~S$793.62). If you're willing to splurge, there's a seller on Ebay who is selling it for about 500 bucks more at $1,293.
