‘My first perfume was Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue. I was about 13, and one of my first boyfriends got it for me. It reminds me of my schooldays and having the best time. I never switched my scent throughout school, but on my first date (when I was 15), I stole my sister’s Davidoff Cool Water Woman! In 2009, I went to university (where I lived with six girls), and we used to borrow each other’s scents all the time – it was so much fun. Now I opt for Jimmy Choo Exotic for my holidays and Paco Rabanne Lady Million for every day. I love them both.’

‘I remember my first perfume was Jennifer Lopez Live. My mum bought it for me for my 18th birthday. I took it on my first trip to Las Vegas in 2004 and wore it every day while I was exploring the city. I left it in the hotel room when we went to the airport, and I was devastated! On my first date, when I was 18, I wore Britney Spears Curious because I was obsessed with Britney Spears at the time and loved the baby-blue packaging. At university I always wore Vera Wang Princess – I loved the girly packaging and the sweet scent – and on my first day of work in 2010 I remember wearing Juicy Couture Couture Couture, a gift from a family friend who’d just returned from holiday. I loved the sweet, fruity scent and the eye-catching bottle. Now my signature scent is Gucci Guilty. I love the luxe gold packaging and the powerful sultry scent.’

‘My first ever perfume was Calvin Klein CK Be, and I remember buying it when I was about 12 in a department store in LA. That was also my first ever holiday, so that scent will always remind me of it. While I was at secondary school, I used to wear my sister’s favourite perfume to parties – it was Anna Sui Sui Dreams. I loved the bottle design, and the scent was gorgeous. In 2003, I started university and wore Ghost by Ghost, which is still one of my favourites. If I remember rightly, the perfume I wore on my first day at work was Calvin Klein Eternity Moment. It gave me such a good vibe! Fast-forward to 2017, and I love Estée Lauder Modern Muse for holidays abroad – it’s such a fresh and exciting scent and lasts all day. But the signature scent I wear every day is Stella McCartney Stella – I always get so many compliments when I’m wearing it.’
