On Wednesday last week, the world watched as florists ferried thousands of tiny flowers into Westminster Abbey, in preparation for William and Kate’s Royal Wedding. But while the blooms were filling the space with a delicious floral scent, Kate turned her attention to another task – her wedding day fragrance.
According to reports, the former Miss Middleton chose a delicate White Gardenia scent to wear as she walked down the aisle, by little known brand, Illuminum.
