🌙 37. A Scented Letter: Zouzou — An Elegant Gourmand Skin Scent


Celine Zouzou watercolor collage and samples

👋 Hello fragrance friend,

Lately, I’ve been drawn to skin scents. Perhaps the uncertainty of our times makes me crave something comforting and close—an easy reach that feels like a second skin.

Zouzou by Celine has a magnetic pull—you find yourself returning to it, breathing in its silky warmth. It opens with a kiss of vanilla blended with tonka’s coumarin sweetness, then softens into a powdery veil—timeless, modern, quietly addictive. As it settles, a gentle trace of patchouli adds just enough earth to keep it intimate.

Quiet luxury in skin scent form—an elegant gourmand that only whispers. It settles against the body, revealing creamy vanilla and warm tonka bean in gentle, powdery wisps. Understated and refined, it leaves behind a trace of patchouli earth for a subtle, lingering depth. The 10ml travel spray makes a beautiful luxe perfume gift.

Try Zouzou by Celine if you are drawn to nostalgic scents that feel like a golden cloud. For something equally soft,  Guerlain Spiritueuse Double Vanille offers golden warmth—boozy vanilla laced with incense and delicate woods, while Guerlain Gourmand Coquin wraps rose, cacao, and black tea in a swirl of spices—decadent yet tender. Amouage Guidance 46 is a bit brighter than the original Amouage Guidance, where pear, saffron, and rose unfold over rich woods and ambergris. Dries Van Noten Soie Malaquais lingers with notes of blackcurrant, rose, and hazelnut—a silky composition that feels both luminous with a gourmand touch. And for a rare, luminous composition, Amouage Existence glows with skin-warmed florals, aldehydes, and serene radiance—weightless but unforgettable. If you are in the mood for a sparkling rose with dewy petals, try Little Flower by Régime des Fleurs.
