The starting point: the crystal, cut and faceted with Swarovski’s exclusive know-how, captures light, diffracts it and sheds it in a thousand and one luminous vibrations. The signature scent of Aura by Swarovski is directly inspired by this magic. At the heart of the fragrance is a prism of energy, a fusion of amber, benzoin, and white musk. Three pure and noble olfactory vibrations become charged with energy, transforming into more intense, luminous rays of clear light.

What we say:
As a big lover of jewellery and all things sparkly, I am a huge fan of Swarovski. I’ve been buying the crystals for as long as I can remember, and have admired the ready-made jewellery and accessories for many years. When they first released this fragrance I was totally captivated with the packaging before I had even smelt the perfume – the bottle contains a massive pointy crystal, after all!
So with my new dressing table accessory purchased, it was time to start testing it (I loved the sample in the store, but I believe it takes a day’s wear to determine whether it’s a keeper or not). Despite it being an EDP, I find the fragrance lovely and light. It is sparkly (excuse the pun) and florally, and if I had to describe it in one word it would have to be “vibrant.” It is long-lasting and feminine, perfect for a day at the office, lunch with the girls or dinner with the family. In winter I would opt for something a little bit richer, but this has definitely become part of my summer fragrance wardrobe!

This gorgeous fragrance seems to be discontinued and thats such a pity! It nowhere to be found in stores
Swarovski Aura Eau de Parfum opens with a burst of sweet, gorgeous litchi and dries-down to a beautiful, soft, feminine scent with notes of rose, musk and amber. This fruity, oriental perfume comes in a stunning tall, sleek bottle with a genuine Swarovski crystal. What a stylish product!
Fruity, floral and spicy, Aura by Swarovski is more than just a pretty fragrance in a pretty bottle. This all rounder, luminescent and romantic smelling fragrance defines the aura of love.
With fruity notes of litchi and floral notes of pure white tuberose which combine with a spicy ray of pink pepper, amber, benzoin and white musk, this fragrance captures nothing but pure sensuality and majestic femininity.
Although I’m not one for floral smells, I fell in love with the smell of this fragrance instantly. I think this was because, even though this fragrance has intense floral notes, it’s more than just that. It’s floral with a difference. It’s definitely fresh and new, and something like I’ve never smelled before.
At times I did find the fragrance to be very overwhelming and potent, so I don’t think it should be worn every day. I suggest that it should only be worn on special occasions. But because it is as strong and not to mention long-wearing, you definitely get the most out of this fragrance as well as your money’s worth.
Aura by Swarovski is perfect for modern day, sophisticated women and for anyone that loves a good, clean, flowery scent.
I have a few fragrances that I bounce between, however this has to be my favourite. It has this amazing florally, fresh scent that follows me around all day. Plus the bottle is soooooo pretty. I highly recommend this, however I do caution wearers to be careful not to mix the scent with any other (fragrant body lotion etc.) as that could be disastrous.
I love this scent, it is so soft and light, and long lasting. It is a perfect scent for summer. I received a sample, but will definitely consider a full size!
I use this perfume and it’s the best. Not a lot of people use it so I always receive complements when wearing it.
