Lipstick-Inspired Fragrances

The New 'Shadescents' by MAC are Designed to Pair with Its Lipsticks

For those who have always wanted to match their crimson pout with an equally powerful scent, MAC has just debuted a set of lipstick-inspired fragrances dubbed the 'Shadescents' collection.

The Shadescents lineup consists of six signature scents that are designed to pair with MAC's cult-classic lipsticks. Each fragrance is designed with a different type of lipstick-wearer in mind, with scents ranging from sweet and subtle to bold and aromatic. For instance, the fragrance paired with the best-selling Ruby Woo lipstick boasts notes of leather and woody florals, which pair perfectly with the classic red shade.

With the holidays just around the corner, the new lipstick-inspired fragrances are the perfect option for those looking for a unique gift for the beauty buff in their life.
