Vera Wang Embrace Periwinkle & Iris Eau de Toilette 30ml Spray

Vera Wang Embrace Periwinkle & Iris Eau de Toilette 30ml is a soft, romantic floral-gourmand fragrance for women, launched in 2015 as part of the brand's Embrace collection and signed by perfumer Natasha Côté. A bright, sparkling opening of bergamot and mandarin leads into a powdery floral heart of iris, violet, periwinkle and jasmine, before settling into a comforting base of whipped cream, sugar, vanilla and benzoin.

About Vera Wang Embrace

Vera Wang founded her eponymous fashion house in New York in 1990, and is best known internationally for redefining the modern bridal gown. The fragrance line, produced under licence, follows the same elegant, romantic sensibility; the Embrace collection — launched in 2015 — extends the brand's accessible-luxury fragrance offering, with each scent named after a pair of complementary signature notes.

Who it's for

Embrace Periwinkle & Iris suits women looking for a soft, romantic everyday fragrance with a powdery floral heart and a comforting gourmand drydown. The composition is at its best in autumn and spring, comfortable for daytime, casual evening and date contexts, and works particularly well as a younger or first-bottle fragrance. Anyone drawn to fragrances such as Marc Jacobs Daisy or Lancôme La Vie Est Belle Soleil Cristal will recognise the territory.

How to wear it

Hold the bottle around 15 cm from the skin and spray onto pulse points — wrists, neck, and behind the ears. Apply to clean, moisturised skin to extend the wear of the lighter top notes. Two to three sprays balance well; the vanilla-and-benzoin drydown develops on warm skin and rewards a moderate hand.
