Perfume Reviews
YSL Opium Collector Edition, Eau de Toilette Fragrance
When I was young, I would often catch my mom wearing this fragrance. It’s a timeless scent that’s reminiscent of old times. Still today, I find the perfume smells vintage but totally not past its prime. In my younger years though, I never had a clearly …
Anais Anais
My mom uses this perfume, and it smells so romantic. I don�t know why but it makes me want to cuddle up and watch a chick flick. The scent is distinct flowery fresh scent and you just know its Anais Anais someone else is wearing. I have a bottle …
Crabtree and Evelyn Vanilla Perfume
I have always loved the aroma and taste of vanilla; whether it be a vanilla-flavored candle, vanilla handsoap, or a vanilla ice cream on top of a float, in my case, nothing can ever go wrong with vanilla (and yes, my favorite is Vanilla Coke!).
I bought a Crabtree and …
Guerlain Homme L’Eau Perfume
One thing I like about this scent is its refreshing appeal because of how the perfume look with its bottle, color or the flacon in general. The shape of the bottle was square and transparent. The liquid was mint green. The scent is called “water” which in French means …
Magic Noire Perfume by Lancome
One of my favourite evening perfumes is Magic Noire by Lancome. I have been using this perfume off and on for several years.
Magic Noire comes in a slim black plastic encased bottle, with a black and gold twist off lid. This bottle fits neatly into a woman’s hand, and …
Desire For Women by Dunhill fragrance
The look was too much I think when it paints so much indulgence with pink. Dunhill is mostly associated with male fashion line and so there was hesitance in me to try it. I thought it would not be something that would create or be at par with my …
The Body Shop Vanilla Eau De Toilette
This was another set I got from the Body Shop and 1 that I got this Christmas. I tend to get quite a lot of Body Shop sets as my cousin has the odd Party, and I think she probably uses her commission and free gifts to buy presents …
Carolina Herrera 212 Sexy for Women
Carolina Herrera 212 Sexy for Women,has a very fitting name. It is a sexy and fun scent! Try this fragrance out if you are wanting something a little different that will get you a ton of compliments. Men love this stuff! My husband surprised me with a bottle of …
Basic Instinct by Victoria’s Secret (perfume)
I am a big collector of perfumes of all kinds and because of this it seemed obvious to me that I would end up working closely related to perfumes. I adore my job in a perfume store and am frequently asked advice from customers about certain fragrances or recommendations …
Amazone (Hermes, Eau de Parfum)
“Amazone” was for me the first whiff of my later perfumes favourite, the house of Hermes (see my review of “Faubourg 24″).
I first smelled it on a good friend of mine and thought it was sweet but not cloying, with just the right touch of “leathery” smokiness: fantastically sexy and …
Boss Orange by Hugo Boss
I think this scent is just over indulgent with the word orange. You can almost mistook it as something citrusy or fruity like me. I thought this perfume is plainly citrus because it is orange but sadly it was too powdery and vague in its
smell. First, the scent captures …
Elizabeth Arden Red Door fragrance
Elizabeth Arden Red Door is an amazing unique fragrance that I like to wear especially around the holidays. A few years back I visited the Elizabeth Arden cosmetics counter at a department store, and I received a free sample of the perfume. At first I wasn’t sure …
Avon Soft Musk Perfume
Perhaps I will struggle to describe this scent as it is just Musk scent in a bottle, but since it is a nice scent I will try to elaborate a bit about it.
This normally costs £8 for the 50ml bottle in Avon, but I got it on a special …
Avon Sassy Swirls Vanilla Berry Perfume
This is the last Perfume in the Avon Sassy Swirls range that I am reviewing. I’ve reviewed the other 2 in the range so it is the turn of this one. I bought all 3 of them at the same time. This was probably because they were new and …
Bill Blass Perfume
This is an oldie but a goodie in my perfume collection. I know that I have enjoyed wearing it on and off for about 15 years and it has been around for a lot longer than that. This is a perfume that I think will never go out of …
Sarah Jessica Parker Endless Perfume
This Perfume looked the same as Dawn, but instead of the blue colouring, this one is a pretty pink colour. Wish they would change the dated looking bottles, as you can have some lovely looking bottles thesedays. Since this isn’t that cheap a Perfume, there is no need to …
Red Door Eau De Toilette Spray by Elizabeth Arden Perfume
I got my 100ml bottle of Elizabeth Arden’s Red Door Perfume a year ago when my husband had his business trip to New Zealand. This was handed to him by his relative there to give as a gift for me. Even before, I love Elizabeth Arden products specially perfume. …
Midnight Pomegranate by Bath and Body Works
I love Midnight Pomegranate by Bath and Body Works. It is a unusual and fun scent that always gets me plenty of compliments. It smells like it should be very expensive , but it is really a bargain. Most Bath and Body Works products are awesome and sold at …
In Black by J Del Pozo fragrance
I was in Perfumania when I came across the J Del Pozo’s line of fragrances. I had never heard of J Del Pozo before but what really caught my eye and got me to ask the store clerk for a sample, was the awesome looking bottle it came in. …
Antonio Banderas Blue Seduction Fragrance
“I will never spend so much money for a smell, no matter how much money I make”, was line I became popularly know for amongst my closest associates whenever we were in the fragrance section of any shop.
While that sentiment was very sincere at its time of coming into …
Faith Hill True Perfume
In the cold winter days approaching it is nice to be able to spritz on a scent that reminds me of warm sunny days. This is a great floral and summery fragrance that I enjoy wearing year round. It is a nice pick me up , because it always …
Mary Kay Belara Eau De Parfum
One of my favorite collections was the perfume collection. I usually use on perfumes daily depending on my moods, activities and places where to stay. Sometimes when I am going out in a formal occasion I choose the Mary Kay Belara Eau De Parfum. When I bought this product …
Siren Eau de Parfum by Paris Hilton
This is a better scent than the Can Can. Both are sweet fragrances, but what I love about Siren is that it’s one of a kind and something that gives off a distinctive scent of flower. It’s not a confusing scent, as there is the trademark of tropical forest …
Dolce Gabbana The One Perfume
I think this scent was the first one in the One Perfume range from this designer. I got this scent in a little pack of minature Designer Perfume scents so I wasn’t sure how much this cost on it’s own and the right size of the bottle or that. …
Jo Malone English Pear & Freesia Fragrance
Though I often shrug at the prohibitive prices of niche perfumes, my appreciation for Jo Malone fragrances started at the time somebody gifted me a bottle. Every once in a while I do treat myself for an exquisite fragrance, beyond merely subsisting through the regular sample vials I …
Donna Karan Red Delicious Women
I like the Donna Karan range of scents. I know they can work out quite expensive, but they are fun, fresh, clean smelling and quite modern. I would say these are more suited for younger Perfume wearers, but again whatever your age you should be able to use the …
With Love by Hillary Duff perfume
This perfume has an absolutely lovely scent, it’s definitely one of my favorites! Hillary Duff is an actress that I’ve loved and admired since the old Disney Channel days, and being an artist with her sister. I’ve supported her greatly, and when I found out that she had a …
Acqua di Parma Colonia Perfume
After smelling this scent, all that I can say is wow! It is a great Italian scent that will get you noticed wherever you go. This stuff is expensive and smells that way too. I think it is a classic scent and I know that it is very popular …
Armani Prive Cologne Spray Bois d’Ences
Having been so obsessed with Thierry Mugler’s Alien Liqueur de Parfum which was oriental woody, I decided to try another Armani Prive Cologne which is Bois d’Ences. I was so intrigued about Armani Prive scents also thus it was a swift decision to try this. The smell was very …
A Little Romance Body Splash by Fuller Life cologne
I am a fan of other beauty products but since there are lots of brand to choose from I tried purchasing the other item. This is a new beauty product from Fuller life since before I am purchasing a lot of products from them, and now there were one …
Gucci Guilty Perfume
This is a new scent by Gucci , and I was very excited to give it a try. I bought a small bottle without sampling it , because I am usually a huge Gucci fan. I got it home and sprayed some on prepared to be delighted , but …
Harajuku Lovers G Perfume for women
This has become one of my favourite fragrances, having always loved expensive scents I decided to try a different scent!
The bottle is very quirky of a girl with big hair and a bow, her clothes representing her and the fragrance that goes along with it. All the scents from …
Escape perfume by Calvin Klein
Calvin Klein’s ‘Escape’ is a citrus-based perfume with just enough floral bouquet to distinguish it from the men’s version of ‘Escape’. Very light and engaging, nearly everyone who smells it will ask what it is, and EVERYONE seems to like it. It is perfect for the office …
Avon Wish of peace Perfume Eau De Toilette Spray
I am already using two of the three Wishes scents of Avon. They are Wish of Happiness and Wish of Peace. I have made a brief test but have not really used for long the Wish of Love yet. I now wish to talk about Avon …
Nu Women by Yves Saint Laurent for Women
If I would be asked what’s the best feature I can find irresistible about Nu Women by Yves Saint Laurent, definitely, I’ll just answer that I so much love Nu Women by Yves Saint Laurent because of its packaging, the bottle’s shape, the musky style and the perfume itself. …
Jet Femme by Avon Fragrance
I think this is by far, a good recession-friendly perfume I’ve actually liked. I shun away from most of the perfumes sold in competitive prices, cheap as they come, I’m afraid to smell of household products because they’re often revisions or inspirations of familiar high-end fragrances. This …
Hermes Eau de Cologne Pamplemousse Rose Fragrance
So this fragrance continues the saga I have for hermes perfumes, kicked off by Un Jardin Sur Le Nil, another hermes scent that opened my renewed enthusiasm for the fragrance house. I purchased a miniature bottle to test it out, and even at that small amount, it already …
Mesmerize Eau de Cologne
In my opinion, Mesmerize Eau de Cologne Spray perfume is on of the freshest and lovely smelling perfumes that I have used in a long time. A good friend of mine is an Avon representative, and I love getting free samples of Avon products. Everytime time I purchase something …
UNLTD By Marc Ecko Perfume ( For Men )
UNLTD is a new fragrance from Marc Ecko which was released last spring ( 2011 ). I manage to check this immediately after I read about this in an online perfume website. One of the things that attracted me to this perfume is the appearance. Like “Drifter” by True Religion, …
Kate Moss Velvet Hour Perfume
I bought this Perfume for my Sister’s Christmas and also got it for the bargain price of £9.99 online for 100ml. I’ve seen this advertised on tv a couple of times, and also in posters in some shops, and we know who Kate Moss is because of her job, …
Clinique Happy For Men
I was so attracted with the package because it is orange. Not a typical color for a male scent. Since the female version is already a staple for girl’s frangrances, I decided to buy the “for men” version.
The bottle is uniquely shaped. It is elongated and the cover …
Dawn Perfume by Sarah Jessica Parker
This is a very sweet and innocent type of scent that reminds me of sunny days and flowers. It is a floral perfume that is light and smells great. I think that it is suited for just about any woman that enjoys softer perfumes. I admit I like bolder …
Dana Zig Zag Perfume
After seeing the bottle of this it was enough to put me off this. I didn’t buy this, and just seen this odd shaped and looking bottle when in my niece’s house. I had to have a sniff since it was Perfume related and decided it isn’t for me. …
Moment De Bonheur perfume by Yves Rocher
As I work in a perfume store part time I have full access to a full array of beautiful scents day in day out, but one of my most treasured purchases from recent weeks is one from French beauty mail order company Yves Rocher.
The fragrance in question is called …
Michael Kors Very Hollywood Perfume
The smell of Very Hollywood Perfume by Michael Kors is an amazing combination of gardenia and jasmine scents. I love this perfume because I love flowery perfumes that are light and fresh. Jasmine is one of my favorite scents, and the combinatin with the fresh gardenia makes this perfume …
DKNY Woman Eau de Parfum Spray
I got this perfume as a Christmas present for my daughter. She is at the age where she begins to appreciate a good perfume. Perhaps, there are other reasons as well but for me, I chose this perfume because it just smells good and would be suitable for a …
Jo Malone Grapefruit Cologne For Women
Jo Malone Grapefruit Cologne is a great scent for women. You can’t go wrong with giving it a try. It is a very good citrusy fragrance. It is both refreshing and energizing. I really enjoy it! I think that it is a great perfume to wear when you need …
Body by Victoria Secrets
I tend to get headaches with most perfumes so I tend to stay away from wearing perfume. There is something about a strong scent that really messes with my head. As a result, I usually don’t wear anything. A couple of years ago, my sister bought be Body by …
Poison (Christian Dior, 1985)
Try to picture an evening in any “fancy” drinking hole, in any Western city, at any time between 1985 and 1988 (or even later), without the smell of Poison wafting through the air… You can’t. In those years, Poison was EVERYWHERE.
And no wonder, because it so pervasive - and long-lived …
Flower Tag perfume for women by Kenzo
I was thoroughly looking forward to the new fragrance for women by Kenzo as I am a huge fan of Flower and to this day it remains one of my most favourite fragrances. When Flower Tag was introduced I was slightly apprehensive as I wondered how anything could …
