This month’s edition of W Magazine certainly is an affair to remember, thanks to the stunning photographs of Nicole Kidman and Clive Owen, who play lovers as Martha Gellhorn and Ernest Hemingway in the upcoming movie Hemingway & Gelhorn.

Late last year, Oscar de la Renta introduced a new perfumed called, ‘Live in Love’. What a gorgeous name!
It was inspired by Mr de la Renta’s passion for life and the firm belief that every day, not just special occasions, should be a celebration.
The various flowers in his gardens inspired the fragrance, with top notes of hyacinth, galbanum, bergamot, lily of the valley and orchid; middle notes of jasmine, African orange and rose with base notes of sandalwood and Virginia cedar and woodsy notes of amber and must. By all accounts it’s a truly lovely fragrance which looks like the perfect combination of old-world, yet modern and sophisticated. I can’t wait to try it as I have a feeling it may just become my new favourite fragrance!
