A strange place that Bella Hadid chooses to store her favorite perfume

It seems that the international model and entrepreneur, Bella Hadid, believes that perfume is no longer just a scent that distinguishes a woman, but rather part of an integrated lifestyle, which begins with reconciliation with oneself, passes through taking care of the body and mind, and ends with a simple but profound feeling: being present in the moment you are living.

After most of her previous perfumes were associated with nostalgia for memories, Hadid confirms that the philosophy of her new perfumes is based on a completely different idea: being present in the present moment, feeling inner peace, and moving towards the future with confidence.

Bella Hadid believes that a person spends a large part of his life recalling the past, or worrying about the future, so she wanted to present two perfumes that remind those who wear them to live in the present moment.

With the launch of her two new fragrances: “Candied Sand” and “Neroli’s Halo”, within the “Solars Mists” collection, Bella confirms that her new philosophy is based on a simple and profound idea: for a person to feel that he is present here and now, and to carry with him a feeling of freshness and lightness wherever he goes.

A different composition than traditional perfumes:

The two new perfumes are distinguished by the fact that they do not resemble heavy classic perfumes, but rather come with a two-phase formula, which requires shaking the bottle before use, until the ingredients are mixed, and it is ready for spraying.

The formula contains a high percentage of water, which makes its use closer to a refreshing spray for the body and hair. It gives a feeling of cleanliness and coolness, without being penetrating or irritating, which makes it suitable for reuse more than once during the day.

Bella describes one of the two perfumes as combining orange blossom and musk in an unexpected way. Although she was not a fan of this aromatic note previously, the new combination made her fall in love with it.

She says: The scent gives a feeling like just coming out of the shower, with clean and styled hair, and then heading directly to the beach on a quiet summer morning, where cleanliness is mixed with natural freshness without the traditional soap smell.

As for the other fragrance, it has a warmer and deeper character, as it is based on sandalwood, cedar and amber musk, but – at the same time – it maintains a sweet touch thanks to coconut milk, jasmine, vanilla and tonka beans. To combine strength and softness at the same time.

Hadid reveals that she is not afraid to experiment with ingredients that she did not previously prefer, stressing that making perfumes is a mixture of art and science.

A strange place…in which she retains her perfume:

Perhaps the funniest surprise was where Bella chose to keep her favorite perfume; Instead of putting it on the dressing table, or just in the handbag, she revealed that while she was in Texas, she used to leave one of the perfume bottles inside her ATV, specifically in the cup holder.

She explains that the bottle was constantly shaking while driving over rough roads, which is appropriate for the composition of this perfume, which needs to be shaken before use. Many women also used it during trips, until it became part of their daily adventures.

Bella believes that perfume is not a last step before going out, but rather a permanent companion that can be used at different times. She starts her day by sprinkling it on the body immediately after showering, then adding it to her hair before drying it. To give it a refreshing scent that lasts for hours.

You also reuse it after arriving at any destination, whether it is a meeting, lunch, a walk on the beach, or even while hiking, because it gives a renewed sense of cleanliness without becoming heavy or annoying.

Aside from perfumes, Bella adopts a morning routine that gives her energy and prepares her for the day. She starts her morning with a cup of hot water with lemon and honey, then drinks a drink rich in plant protein and fortified with amino acids, followed by a cup of matcha, which has become a constant part of her day, especially after recipes for coconut cream with matcha spread on social media. She is also keen to take vitamins and some liquid supplements, which she adds to juices, in addition to using massage devices that help her improve lymphatic circulation.

As her day ends, Bella resorts to a set of rituals that help her relax, especially since she sometimes suffers from pain related to problems with her immune system.

She prefers to shower with warm water containing Epsom salt, then light candles and drink a cup of tea. While she chooses warmer and calmer perfumes in the evening that give her a feeling of security and comfort, she also relies on a long evening meditation session, although she admits that she often falls asleep a few minutes after it begins, which she considers evidence of its effectiveness in helping her sleep.
