BEAUTY TALK: Afternoon Tea with STELLA

Ohh Stella McCartney … I don’t know what exactly it is about her that fascinates me so much (aside from her gorgeous Falabella bags of course), but the woman is simply WOW and I almost feel a bit guilty telling you guys that I got to have afternoon tea with her yesterday in Munich. Like really with her, as in she sat across from me at the table ♥ To celebrate the re-launch of her scent “STELLA” she gathered a few bloggers and journalists for a lovely intimate afternoon tea at the Victorian House in Munich. Tea sandwiches, lots of pink rose, champagne, macarons, … so girly and so perfect!
I was actually surprised by how much I liked the scent, because I am usually someone that prefers really “light” perfumes. When I heard it was based on the contrast between the fresh, soft rose, and dark amber I felt like it could be a bit too much. But the rose comes across perfectly – not too heavy, but very true to itself – and as Stella told us during tea-time, it was her personal mission to create a scent you could wear, but that wouldn’t wear you. She said that she loves it when she meets people and smells the perfume just enough to want to know what it is, but not too much to want to get away from that person as fast as possible. Do any of you wear the scent regularly? I think it’ll be perfect for Fall!
