I was kindly gifted the Marc Jacobs Perfect EDT to try out and review. 

The bottle is contained in a baby blue box which matches the shade of the fragrance inside. Cute sketches and the word 'Perfect' in script handwriting decorate the outer packaging, which is elevated by silver foil accents. 

This fragrance is encased in a weighted clear glass faceted bottle which looks elegant and luxurious. The cap is decorated with a set of charms handpicked by Marc Jacobs himself, my favourites being the big white bow, star-shaped balloon, cherries and the heart-shaped locket. 

The charms bring a fun element which contrasts with the classically shaped bottle. 

Marc Jacobs Perfect Eau de Toilette fragrance features:

• Top Notes of Pink Peppercorn and Polygonum
• Heart notes of White Daffodil
• Base Notes of Cedarwood

The spray action is quite strong, so care should be taken when pressing it.  

Marc Jacobs Perfect Eau de Toilette opens with sharp, spicy and elegantly floral Pink Peppercorn notes which quickly transform to a subtle warm and gentle milky scent provided by the White Daffodil. 

I'm not sure I was able to identify the Polygonum in this perfume as it is not a note I am familiar with. 

The Cedarwood base is not perceptible at all, at least for me as I have used several perfumes with Cedarwood in them, and it is generally a very strong, noticeable woody aroma. However, this doesn't negatively affect my opinion of this fragrance as I still enjoy the warm, creamy 'skin scent' base. 

This innocent fragrance also has a hint of a clean, almost soapy note mixed in at the base. 

If I had to describe Marc Jacobs Perfect EDT in one phrase it would be "a warm, sunny spring afternoon".

Marc Jacobs Perfect EDT is a very light fragrance which is great for spring and summer. I don't usually go for Eau De Toilettes but this is a great option for warmer weather, when you want to feel put together but not wear a scent that will become overpowering when it's hot. 

Even though it is not a very intense fragrance (it is more subtle than the original Perfect EDP), it was still perceptible on my skin over 8 hours after its first application. 

The bottle is both classic and fun, and the subtly sweet fragrance makes me think this perfume can be enjoyed by girls in their teens to women in their 40s or even beyond. It would make a lovely first perfume too.

If you are looking for a soft, delicately sweet perfume for spring and summer I would recommend trying Marc Jacobs Perfect EDT.

Find Marc Jacobs Perfect EDT at Sephora, Superdrug, John Lewis, Very & House of Fraser.
