Anna Sui Says, “Hello Dolly!”
I’ve been sniffing quite a few fragrances to find a good one for right now and it got me thinking (here’s my Sex In the City moment): “If we don’t like a scent one month, does that mean next month we still won’t like it?” Just like the show, I won’t be able to solve answer that question right away, but I do know that I am liking ANNA SUI’s new Dolly Girl Lil’ Starlet Eau de Toilette Spray ($57/1.7oz @ strawberrynet.com). Every year, Ms. Sui launches a new Dolly Girl and this is our first experience with any of her Dollys. I love the way these bottles look back at you from the dressing table and this one is oh so Twiggy-like.
The scent is called a Floral Watery with top notes of marine accord, pink grapefruit, lemon and mandarin; middle notes of Madonna lily, pear and peony; bottom notes of sandalwood, amber and musk. The scent is fun and perfect for any thirty-something.
This might be the cutest dolly bottle yet! Just keep her away from that naughty C3PO...

Hi - for me, the bottle is so part of the appeal. She looks really sweet on my beauty table.

Dolly Girl makes me smile too. I love it and I bought it years ago for my niece and look for it constantly. Anna Sui makes the richest florals that compliment women. All of her scents smell like they were picked and rubbed right on.
