These are the fragrance and bag combinations you need if your favorite Barbie animation is here

Like many of us, we are slowly waiting for the release of the live-action Barbie starring Margot Robbie and many other prominent celebrities in the industry. It’s one of the animations that we have been anticipating seeing in real life since a majority of us grew up playing with the dolls and binge watching their long list of movies.

To honor the upcoming movie release of the iconic doll, we look back on the Barbie movies that made a mark in our childhood and see which fragrance and bag matched their vibe. 

Barbie in the 12 Dancing Princesses

Narciso Rodriguez Narciso Eau de Parfum Poudree and Boy Chanel Messenger Bag

Channel Genevieve’s energy with a spritz of Narciso Rodriguez Narciso Eau de Parfum Poudree. The fragrance greets its wearer with a velvety jasmine accord that soon tempers down a sensual wood note. The result? An alluring powdery musc scent that is not too overwhelming—an ideal daytime to nighttime wear for anyone who wants to encapsulate a feminine yet daring trail. 

We can trust Chanel to craft designs that have the perfect blend of chic and sweet, which is why we matched it with this Barbie movie. It’s reminiscent of the princesses’ charming personalities and their gorgeous ballerina dresses. One detail that captures the aesthetic of this movie is the quilted finish seen on the pointe shoes we all wanted when we were younger, which Chanel never fails to include in their bag collections. 

Barbie in the Nutcracker

DIOR J’adore Parfum D’eau and Small Lady Dior Bag

DIOR J’adore Parfum D’eau perfectly captures the sense of the character through a fresh floral fragrance. It envelops the skin with the unprecedented sensoriality of jasmine sambac, neroli, and magnolia notes that evokes a chic and elegant scent. Moreover, it’s the type of scent to wear for days where you want to embrace your own Barbie in the Nutcracker fantasy. 

Barbie in the Nutcracker is a classic Barbie movie, and the Lady Dior is the epitome of class and elegance. This Dior bag is a must-have for lovers of all things timeless since it was named to honor the late Princess Diana or Lady Di. 

Barbie Mariposa and Her Butterfly Fairy Friends

Jo Malone London Mallow On The Moor Cologne and Jacquemus Le sac Rond 

Jo Malone London Mallow On The Moor Cologne is one scent that encapsulates Flutterfield. The fragrance features a beautiful synchronicity of violet leaf and mallow that dries down into the powdery note of heliotrope. It’s the perfect balance between fresh, floral, and musky—the type of fragrance that can transport its wearer to an extraordinary place of misty moors, heather-clad hills, and ancient castles.

Barbie Mariposa and Her Butterfly Fairy Friends is one of the movies that introduced us to the whimsical world of butterfly fairies. With a plot to seek solace outside the city, it is fitting to match Jacquemus to the animation since they are all about the fashion beyond the central. Just like the vibrant colors of the fairies’ wings, Jacquemus’ love for colorful hues and playful structures makes them the ideal match for those who love the quirkiness of life.

Barbie as Rapunzel

Marc Jacob Fragrances Perfect Marc Jacobs Eau de Parfum and Hermès Kelly

Embrace the entire fairytale experience with the Perfect Marc Jacobs Eau de Parfum. Inside its chic bottle sits a sparkling cocktail of rhubarb, daffodil, and almond milk that are gently grounded by the warm notes of cashmeran. An incredibly bright and playful scent, it’s one of the best floral perfumes to reach for an instant pick-me-up.

When one thinks of Rapunzel, we remember her exploration and love for art. We saw how she painted the walls of her room to painting various dresses with her magical wand. Meanwhile, Hermès is known to craft their bags for the practical woman, which is what inspired the design behind the Birkin and the Kelly. In conclusion, we are totally here for the jagged use of your Birkin and Kelly that Rapunzel will probably do if she had either. 

Barbie Fairytopia: Mermaidia

Diptyque Do Son Eau de Toilette and Bottega Veneta Small Solstice Shoulder Bag

Dive into the world of mermaidcore with Diptyque Do Son Eau de Toilette. Inspired by summer vacations spent in Do Son Ha Long Bay, the perfumers concocted a fresh blend of the spiciness of tuberoses, brightness of orange blossom, sensuality of jasmine, and the freshness of marine accord. Moreover, it only takes one spritz to evoke the inner mermaid in you. 

Diptyque Do Son Eau de Toilette and Bottega Veneta Small Solstice Shoulder Bag

Since we’re talking about the aquatic world, it’s only fitting to highlight the unusual yet beautiful forms we see in the ocean, which is evident in Bottega Veneta’s Solstice Bag that has a dipped structure and quilted leather for its exterior. This gives texture to the whole bag and is a must-have for those who are obsessed with being by the beach.
