In a World full of Daisies

Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream Forever Fragrance


Marc Jacobs Daisy Anja Tufina The Dolls Factory

As a kid I remember playing the “loves me, loves me not” game, eagerly picking off flower petals to see if I had a future with my childhood crush. It was always my go-to when deciding if a relationship was meant to be, as I put all my faith in the flower to choose it’s fate. I remember anxiously picking each petal one by one, counting ahead to see if he “loved me”. If the result was that he “loved me not”, I reassured myself by deciding I had accidentally picked the wrong flower, and would try again with a new, more accurate, one. While I haven’t recently played to this game to see if I have found my future husband, I am sure there is a daisy app that I could find on my iPhone to re-live this favorite pastime.

In 2007, Marc Jacobs brought me back to my childhood with the release, and beginning, of the Daisy fragrance collection. It was an instant success with the bottle as fresh and feminine as the scent itself. This Eau de Toilette has fruity top notes of pink grapefruit, strawberry, and violet leaf. Its heart is filled with floral fields of gardenia, violet, and jasmine. Lastly, the powdery base is a combination of white woods, vanilla, and musk. This fragrance remains refreshingly playful while still being suited for the sophisticated woman.

Four years after Daisy came out, the highly anticipated Marc Jacobs Daisy Eau So Fresh was released. With an even brighter packaging this scent is a more fruity, more playful version of the original. The top and some of the main notes of the fragrance are grapefruit, raspberry, green notes, and pear. The heart notes are filled with jasmine, rose, violet, litchi, and apple blossom. The light, woody base notes are a composition of musk, Virginia cedar, and plum. This second version of Daisy is a whimsical interpretation of the original that will instantly make you feel cheerful and bright.

The collection made an ethereal transition in 2014 when Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream was introduced into the daisy world. Daisy Dream not only presented a creative new bottle, but a new airy characteristic to the scent. Its top notes add to the fruity accords, consisting of blackberry, grapefruit, and pear. They are followed by floral heart notes of blue wisteria, jasmine, and litchi. The base notes are a medley of coconut, musk, and white woods. The unique blue color of this fragrance, a result of the floral and fruity aromas, is representative of the inspiration that comes from daydreams and clear skies.

New this year, the Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream Forever Eau de Parfum is the latest addition to the collection. Daisy Dream Forever consists of the same light, airy inspiration as Daisy Dream but with a stronger scent longevity. Top notes open with blackberries, grapefruit, and pear. The heart notes combine flowers of blue wisteria, jasmine, and litchi, and the base notes remain simple yet strong consisting solely of white woods. With this scent Daisy has grown up from her original playful innocence to having a more elegant, yet free-spirited sophistication.
