Asked about her favorite products of recent months, she didn't have to think long about the answer. Ania Parniewicz, a Galilu expert and trainer, shares her choices without hesitation: fragrances that impressed her and that she wears privately, skincare that adds radiance, aromatherapy that helps restore body and mind after a long day.

A.N.
D’ORSAY

I love irises — not only in fragrances. A.N. has an iris-like nobility, but it doesn't distance itself; on the contrary, it tempts and attracts. An unexpected sensuality. Warm, woody, yet spicy with an interesting spice vibration of cumin and pepper. At times it also evokes the scent of sharpened pencils.

Bigarade Concentree
EDITIONS DE PARFUMS FRÉDÉRIC MALLE

Summer doesn't exist without Bigarade Concentree. Effervescent, refreshing, minimalist, yet extremely complex and full of surprising details. The titular literalness of bitter orange is tempered by cardamom and hay. I could bathe in it non-stop. 

Santal-Basmati
AFFINESSENCE

I can't imagine autumn and winter without Santal-Basmati for several years now. Bright, luminous and fluffy. It envelops like a beloved cashmere sweater, dressing you in calm — whatever happens, it will be fine. A scent-amulet. 

Encens Suave
MATIERE PREMIERE

A scent full of contrasts, which I appreciate so much in perfumes. On one hand the sweetness of vanilla, on the other the smokiness of incense. Incense presented in a decidedly seductive way, addictive like morning coffee. The sacred merges with the profane.

Nourishing Facial Oil
MURRĒ

It has an impeccably clean, impressive formula based on fermented oils. I use it regularly, morning and evening, always under cream. As a result the skin is soft, nourished and perfectly hydrated. 

The Rich Cream
AUGUSTINUS BADER

Lavish skincare! But really, I can't imagine not having this cream — I'm absolutely addicted to it. From the very first use the quality of my skin improved significantly, and with each subsequent use it only got better. My complexion radiates with full glow.

Baby Cheeks Blush Stick
WESTMAN ATELIER

I love all Westman Atelier products, but if I had to choose just one it would be the blush in the shade Petal — I never part with it, especially since I also use it as an eyeshadow and a lipstick. It blends perfectly into the skin, providing a supernatural effect, and it also pleasantly moisturizes. 

Aromatic Vinegar
SANTA MARIA NOVELLA

A wonderful mixture of seven herbs that immediately puts you back on your feet. Its recipe is so precious that it has been secured with a double closure. The scent is distinctive, but it's only a matter of time before you not only accept it, but actually fall in love with it. 

Relax Deep Bath & Shower Oil
AROMATHERAPY ASSOCIATES

A guarantee of deep relaxation after a hard day. I love its strongly woody, herbal, earthy scent — a blend of patchouli and vetiver. Thanks to it I can really switch off, calm down and fall asleep blissfully.

Gabriel Candle
TRUDON

For me it's the interior-design equivalent of Encens Suave. A sweet-smoky aroma of candied chestnuts, very pleasant and cozy. On a side note, the quality of Cire Trudon candles was appreciated by the Sun King himself, Louis XIV.
