Victoria Beckham Beauty's latest fragrance, Suite 302 Eau de Parfum, is earning rave reviews, alongside a matching necklace that allows wearers to carry the scent with them. Priced at £170, the perfume is available at Space NK and Selfridges.
Inspired by a Romantic Paris Getaway
The fragrance takes its name from Suite 302, where David and Victoria Beckham stayed during their 2004 Paris honeymoon after renewing their wedding vows. According to the brand, the scent 'epitomises Victoria’s memories of pure glamour'.
Fragrance Notes
The perfume features top notes of black cherry and red peppercorn, middle notes of violet and rose, and base notes of tobacco leaves and black leather. The bottle is inspired by vintage flacons that Victoria collected on her travels.
The Matching Necklace
For those who want to carry their fragrance everywhere, the Suite 302 Necklace costs £290 and is designed to hold the perfume itself. It comes with a tiny funnel for refilling and resembles a miniature perfume bottle.

For a budget-friendly alternative, Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy Eau de Parfum, a fruity amber scent, is available for £22 at Superdrug.
