One Directions Debut Fragrance Launch- Our Moment


Last night I was extremely lucky to have been invited to a rather intimate affair in Searcys at the very top of the Gherkin in London, to the unveiling and showcasing of One Directions debut fragrance 'Our Moment'.

Harry Styles, Liam Payne, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik and Niall Horan make up the extremely successful band One Direction and they were all there looking fabulous, to personally introduce us to the fragrance itself as well as hold a Q&A session.

Between the five of them, the boys told us how they like a girl to smell "fruity, fresh, sweet and subtle" and since a fan started a petition on Twitter for them to start a fragrance, they have spent the last year putting in lots of hard work into developing the perfect fragrance for them, with a blend of their favourite scents to create a vibrant and playful fruity floral fragrance to reflect the band themselves. 

Harry commented "It's been a long and exciting process and we're really proud to have made a One Direction fragrance." Liam added: "We love the idea behind a fragrance as you mix individual scents to create something so much better!", Niall finished by saying "I've tested it on my family and they love it- and we can't wait to show it to our fans across the world!"

They described the scent as best as they could and whilst they couldn't list everything the fragrance holds, they told us to expect something fresh and fruity with Grapefruit, Red Berries and a Creamy Musk and they were pretty spot on.

The notes that the fragrance holds is
Top- Pink Grapefruit, Wild Berries, Redcurrants
Mid- Jasmine Petals, Fresh Freesia, Frangipani
Dry- Creamy Musk, Sheer Woods, White Patchouli

On first impressions, I must admit I thought it was quite a strong fragrance and certainly more floral than sweet, but after while the top notes of the Grapefruit, Berries and Redcurrants definitely make their way through which I personally really like and the final scent is very refreshing and sweet.

Homed in a pretty Pink and very girly ornate Glass bottle with a Mesh Pink Flower and packaged in a matching box with their very lovely faces on, it's definitely one for their fans and I can certainly see it being a number one fragrance from their fan base alone.

One Directions debut fragrance 'Our Moment' launches on the 25th August 2013 where it will be exclusive to Harrods and then will be available nationwide as of 9th September 2013 costing £21 Eau de Parfum Spray 30ml/£29 Eau de Parfum Spray 50ml/£39 Eau de Parfum 100ml with a 150ml Shower Gel and 150ml Body Lotion also available for £12/£14.

  2. I did laugh a bit when their fragrance name was announced the other day. But, I am tempted to sample the scent. I do like a fruity fragrance, and this might be good! :)

  4. I bet this fragrance is going to go down a storm- a perfume for girls to wear that One Direction have put together! It sounds lovely and isn't the Gherkin just incredible? That top floor is brilliant.

  8. this just makes me laugh because we all know Harry designed the bottle hes a total princess i mean the pink tutu he wore is the lid and the crown and sparkly cake for his birthday i mean come on hahah

    not to mention this is such a generic idea its so boring i think its a bad PR decision because it looks like a kids perfume they say they want to go in a more rock/mature direction and then bring out this?
    a better idea would have been to choose scents that each represent each member of one direction that way anyone who is a fan can spray it on themselves and say "they were wearing Louis" that day instead of closing of the market to only young teen girls
