The place of Alhambra has been used many times in several literary works. Washington Irving was instrumental in introducing this to the western culture when he wrote “Tales of the Alhambra”. And of course my all time favorite, “The Alchemist” by Paulo Coelho. These are just some of those …

If I were to think about an incredibly alluring perfume, then this would be one of the first scents to pop into my head. It is a very romantic and sexy type of fragrance. I know that my husband loves it when I have this stuff on. This scent …

Is it bad to chose a perfume based on the attractiveness of the bottle? Yes it is isn’t it.

When I use Heiress for Women by Paris Hilton, I can smell peaches, orange and honeysuckle. I must say, that this is a very fresh scent that I feel comfortable wearing during the daytime at work and for evening wear as well. I can remember the first …

Another perfume from Ever Bilena that I love to smell is this First Love.

This fragrance was released after the couple changed their abode to Los Angeles after David was signed to LA Galaxy. The ad created a distinct feel. You can see the David and Victoria soaked into their own intimate moment. Creatively it was to spell the nighttime to conceptualize the …

This Perfume has been out in Avon for a good couple of years now. The original scent which is Little Black Dress has been out even longer, and this is a similar kind of scent but that bit lighter. I do find that the Black Dress one is a …

I was happy to receive a free sample of Clinique’s Happy Perfume Stick. It’s basically hard to define a happy scent but I think this perfume certainly evokes a cheerful vibe. By my own standards, cheerful doesn’t necessarily entail as ‘tasteful’ because I have a more sophisticated …

I certainly belong among ardently devoted followers of Gianni Versace perfumes since release of his earliest masterpieces, launched in the middle of nineties. No wonder, since the first sniff of precious Bright Crystal blew me away instantaneously, leaving me stunned by tremendous mix of marked character and airy buoyancy. …

This perfume is a treat for those ladies that like light and creamy scents. I have to say that although this is not one of my favorite scents from Bath and Body Works, it is a nice one. I enjoy wearing this scent on lazy days when I am …

I would say this scent was created with flair and extraordinary style. Armani Prive is one of the youngest branch of Giorgio Armani but they released several perfumes already. I have looked for a more laid back smell so while on the lookout for a new smell I tried …

I really wanted to see how these pheromone perfumes work. I tried a different type before, and it did not seem to have much effect. Now I bought something different from supplamart.com, it was almost 20$ for a 34 ml bottle. Well, I expected more. It did feel like …

This is a classic scent but it was repackaged several times. The first version came out in the the 1950’s and during 1997 it was again repackage and in 2009. The inspiration is obviously the note vetiver. Guerlain has a famous perfume named Vetiver and it was quite famous. Vetiver …

I discovered this perfume 2 years ago whilst working in perfume retail and it is my all time favorite. Gucci Eau De Parfum II is a very soft perfume, I love it because it is very fresh without being citrus and not sickly sweet like many floral …

By now you’ve probably noticed I made an exhaustive search for my own personal “signature scent”. I really thought I wouldn’t even have to search at all - because I love the “signature scent” of LUSH organic and handmade cosmetics. What scent is that you ask? KARMA!
Karma (by Gorilla …

This is a brand new Perfume out in the Avon book. I like to wear Perfume every day and although I used to just only wear designer Perfumes, I tend to buy ones out of Avon now as I find their range to be a good range of different …

This Burberry London for Women perfume is one of my favorite perfume collection. I have more than 100 perfumes in my collection already. I am still collecting more perfumes nowadays. But I still use some of my old perfume stocks. One of the perfume that I often wear is …

I sampled this product from a sponsor which came in a travel sized bottle I’m guessing since it’s comparatively smaller than the retailed one. My general feeling towards setting mists is that they’re usually unnecessary beauty add-ons; what with my oily skin it’s best to stay away from …

This is a great summer fragrance that will keep you smelling good all day long. This scent may be a little lighter than the original Armani Code,but it really stands out. I know this scent is a little expensive,but it is worth the money for a nice fragrance that …

I bought this Escada Tropical Punch Perfume fer years ago. I think I bought it when they were just promoting the new product of Escada Tropical Punch Perfume in the market. Since I was collection perfumes at that time, I thought this Escada Tropical Punch Perfume …

When I think of the name Playboy I think about scantily clad or fully nude women casually posing by a couch or in front of a wall. This isn’t to say that I have anything against Playboy, I just find that kind of behavior more bold and daring than what …

In this day of economic uncertainty where every penny has to count, I try to make everything I own last for as long as I can. That is why I follow the most common advice from beauty magazines as to how best to extend your scent; that is shower …

I smelt this scent while in Boots. I wanted to sniff it just to find out what it smelt like, and it was nicer than what I thought would be.
For those of you who din’t know who Sean John is, it’s Puff Diddy. I couldn’t think of him …

I was anticipating this new repackaged version of Acqua De Gio. In English it means “essence”. This version looked the same in terms of the outer appearance–transparent flacon and silver top. However, the container and the cover top is shiny this time. From afar, you will really mistook this as …

I have been buying a few more Perfumes from Avon than normal. It is probably because they are on a quite good offer just now, and this one and another I’m going to review is on a 2 for £12 offer just now. Considering that each 50ml bottle normally …

I got this perfume from one of my trips. It was unisex according the the lady who assisted me at Duty Free. The bottle together with some of the collection looked the same with difference in the color of the liquid. They look so subdued and very pleasing. I …

I have been using this cologne, Ralph Lauren aftershave, for over ten years now. Of all the aftershaves that I have tried I think this is the best. It jives with my body chemistry as if the cologne is inside my body. I smell as if …
