Perfume Reviews
Insolence by Guerlain
Being the best perfume I tried for months, Guerlain Insolence is the most sultry perfume I had ever own. Likewise, I can astoundingly say that this Guerlain Insolence is the most delectable and uplifting fragrance that has a classic character. It’s entirely warm, womanly and classy scent can merely …
Armani Code Perfume
I am not a huge fan of Armani anything, I think for the most part the brand is there to boost the egos of superficial brand whores. So, I have never tried a perfume by Armani until my little brother, who spends all his money on his Armani …
David Beckham Instinct Cologne for Men
For Christmas, my husband and I like to sometimes buy each other a nice cologne or perfume for a stocking stuffer or small gift. Some fragrances we obviously love, and some we hate. When I was walking around the store smelling cologne after cologne, I finally stumbled …
Karl Lagerfeld Chloe Perfume
I got a sample of this a while ago. I haven’t smelt this for ages. I remember thinking this was a nice enough scent, but it wasn’t quite the scent that I would normally go for, as it was heavier and a more musky scent whereas I normally go …
Chance Eau Tendre by Chanel Perfume
Chance from Chanel has a new version and this is Chance Eau Tendre. I have tried the two earlier versions and this particular scent from Chanel has one olfactive group classification, floral. The previous two were mostly the same since both were chyrpe floral. This one got me interested …
Moonlight Path by Bath and Body Works Fragrance Mist
Moonlight Path, is a great fragrance mist by Bath and Body Works. I spray this stuff all over, and enjoy the scent all day long. This is a romantic type of body mist, and is good for just about any occasion. I think it works perfectly for a day …
Brut Splash On
It seems that the Noughties are a decade of the stridently invasive in many ways. The music can be loud and intrusive. The opinions of people are increasingly intolerant of anything except the politically —˜correct’ viewpoint and anything which diverges from that is thoroughly disapproved of. I feel that …
212 Men by Carolina Herrera
I noticed a different scent from my uncle so I asked what is it. He said it was 212 Men from Carolina Herrera and that was the start of me being a fan of Carolina Herrera’s line of perfume.
I went to Rustan’s Makati to purchased my first 212 bottle. …
Calvin Klein Eternity (for men) Eau de Toilette 1.7oz.
Someone bought me this cologne for my birthday in 2012, and I have to say, i like this cologne. I like this cologne because it gives a fresh but not too strong smell. It’s great for a guy who is looking to wear something good smelling, but not too …
L’Air du Temps (Nina Ricci) perfume
(This review is about the Eau de Parfum, both the original and the reissued version.)
Concocted in 1947, this legendary perfume has been one of my favorites for a long time - not least because of the almost miraculously serendipitous way it first came into my posession.
I was a very …
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 …
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 …

Gucci Envy Perfume
I have always loved this scent. I first tried this a few years ago when on holiday. I was going about the Duty free shop wondering if I could find another scent that I loved, tried this and I had to buy it. Not from the Duty Free, as …
Idole (Giorgio Armani, 2009, Eau de Parfum)
After trying Idole, I must say it is one of the very few recent scents that I actually like and might consider buying.
I decided to try it because, so far, none of the Armani scents have really disappointed me.
And at first sniff, from the bottle, this one smelled promising enough …
Assam and Grapefruit by Jo Malone unisex fragrance
I was very excited to know that Jo Malone was going to be releasing a limited edition set of 5 individual fragrances based on tea (yes tea). I thought it sounded a very interesting concept and as I am a fan of all things Jo Malone I couldn’t wait …
Gatsby Big Mountain Cologne
I am very picky when it comes to cologne. I have always had some brand name cologne that costs a minimum of fifty dollars —¦ and not just one, but several at a time. You can call it what you want, but I’ve always enjoyed smelling good. That’s why …
Annayake Tsukimi Eau de Toilette Spray
After having been disappointed with Narciso Rodgriguez for Her, I decided to try another perfume. I still have 3 other ones which I bought when we were in Europe last spring. I usually buy enough as it is difficult to buy here in Gaborone. There are a few shops …
Sarah Jessica Parker Dawn Perfume
This was another of the scents that I got a little sample of when I bought a full sized bottle of a different Sarah Jessica Parker Perfume. I like loads of Perfumes and use Perfume everyday. I often aren’t able to keep buying Perfume even though I want to, …
Harajuku Lovers G
One of my colleagues brought sample of ‘Harajuku Lovers G’ from a magazine and I liked the scent which smells little bit like Hawaiian Tropic sun tan oil and also close to pina colada. She is a regular buyer of that magazine and she received it as a free …

Avon Wish Of Love Perfume
This is my 2nd favourite in the Avon Wish Of range. It is nice in a different way to the Wish Of Peace that i’ve just reviewed, but I guess it is the floral scent that doesn’t take me that much. I’m more of a fresh scent girl.
This is …
Infusion d’Iris by Prada, eau de toilette for women
In the course of last phone conversation, my business partner from France sang praises to recently discovered, exceptional Prada Infusion d’Iris.

Christian Dior Miss Dior Cherie Eau de Parfum Spray
It is difficult for me to resist a nice perfume, specially if it is also long lasting. Christian Dior Miss Dior Cherie Eau de Parfum Spray is my mother’s perfume, I don’t know why but she doesn’t wear perfumes very often and she never buys perfumes for herself so …
Narciso Rodriguez For Her, Eau de Toilette
This review discusses the eau de toilette version of Narciso Rodriguez For Her (i.e., the one in the black bottle).
For Her is a very complex, musky fragrance that opens with a burst of orange flower blossom and osmanthus. If you’re not familiar with what osmanthus is, it’s a …
Flora by Gucci Gucci for women
It was in one of vogue magazines that I learned Flora is intended for younger customers; but being incorrigible floral addicted, my curiosity was roused enough to go test it at first hand in local store right off.
Indeed, sensual fragrance is inspired by a floral motive, inaugurating romantic, powdery …
Clean Warm Cotton for women EDP Fragrance
I consider perfumes an expression of my personality. It could be loud, quiet, or sensual. But I am naturally not seduced by plain, so-called clean fragrances. And maybe that’s why I never submitted to my sisters’ crazed love for Clean perfumes. To draw me in, …
Burberry For Women (1995) Eau de Parfum
I was given a bottle of Burberry’s perfume as a gift. The first time I smelled it - from the bottle - I wasn’t too excited (although I faked enthusiasm, not to hurt the gift-giver’s feelings), because all I could smell was musk - albeit a very soft and appealing …
Quel Amour! For Women by Annick Goutal fragrance
I love Quel Amour! For Women by Annick Goutal. This is a lovely fragrance by Annick Goutal. I have used Annick Goutal perfumes in the past, but the smell of this one is even more intoxicating. In all the perfumes that I have, and I have …

Burberry Tender Touch
Wasn’t expecting to like this as much as I did! It’s very soft and demure, which I really love. On me, I have found a light white floral scent that dries down to a powdery musk that only people very near me can smell. I believe the refreshing subtleness …
Endless by Sarah Jessica Parker Perfume
A couple of weeks ago while I was at the store I was looking at fragrances. I found one that I loved and tried to remember the name so I could tell my husband to buy it for me since I was desperately in need of a new …
Shiseido Zen Pour Femme Eau de Parfum Fragrance
To me, this third edition of Shiseido’s Zen is an iconoclast for a Japanese fragrance. It smells nothing like the far end of the fragrance trail which from what I know started from the 70’s. I believe the first Zen was the epitome of a classic Oriental …

Maurice Roucel created this fragrance.
The top notes are lavender, basil, mint, sage, green notes and freesia. The heart features notes of mimorose, violet and iris. Then the base notes are coumarin, patchouli,vetiver, cedar and amber.
The bottle was very appealing for me. The it was square with spiked features …
Aficionado Germany Perfume-F1
I was quite hesitant to buy Aficonado Germany Perfume before simply because I am just not so impressed with the name. I also thought that this is just one of the many perfume brands in the market who claims lasting scents. However, this impression proved me wrong …
Victoria Secret Fragrant Moisture Mist in Vanilla and Sandalwood
Over the past several months, I have been using the Victorias Secret Fragrant Moisture Mist in Vanilla and Sandalwood and I have to say I am very pleased with it. It smells sweet like vanilla and earthy like sandalwood. The scent is a bit strong, but romantic and does …

First impression when I saw the bottle of Giorgio Armani Sensi - the bottle design did not seem …
J. Lo Miami Glow perfume

What’s the …
