The Eau de Parfum takes inspiration from the designer’s mantra ‘I am perfect as I am’

This is Product of the Week – a weekly round-up of the Dazed Beauty team and wider community’s must-have buys. 

WHAT IS IT?

Brand: Marc Jacobs 

Product: Perfect Eau de Parfum 

Price: £69

WHY SHOULD YOU CARE? 

Marc Jacobs lives by the mantra: “I am perfect.” In fact, he’s even got the word tattooed on his wrist. “It’s a constant reminder that I’m good enough. Whatever I do and however I am and however I choose to present myself, I am perfect as I am,” he explains. 

So, naturally, when thinking for a name for his newest fragrance he immediately went for Perfect. Light, fresh, but with a floral punch, the eau de parfum includes daffodil and rhubarb and an unexpected heart of almond milk. Before you floral fragrance naysayers completely dismiss Perfect, the delicate notes are not too overpowering and gently waft for your (and others) nasal pleasure. 

And it doesn’t stop there either! The bottle and its charms – featuring a bow, star balloon, banana, domino piece, white cat, cherries, and a glass slipper – is so cute. Not to mention, the box with illustration by Jacky Blue. Want to have a perfect day? We suggest wearing Perfect.
