Perfume Reviews
Sweet Darling by Kylie Minogue (perfume)
I remember Kylie Minogue from her debut in the hit Australian soap opera Neighbours many moons ago now. Her acting ability was a bit wooden so who would have thought she would go on to be a hugely successful singing star, let alone her own range of perfumes?
Not me …
Kenneth Cole’s Reaction
First off: I’m writing perfume on men’s cologne named Reaction, by Kenneth Cole. The category choice stemmed mostly from the fact that there was nothing else on the list that achieved such a close semblance to men’s cologne, so I went ahead and put it in here. Ladies …
Bath and Body Works Warm Vanilla Sugar Fragrance Mist
Now awhile ago I vowed that I would stay away from spray fragrances from stores like Victoria Secret because of the cheap ingredients in it like 10 percent of fragrance, 45 percent water and 45 percent alcohol. But my mind was changed when I went to a friend’s house …
CHANEL No 19, Eau de Parfum (1971)
I admit, I neglected Chanel for a long, long time. While I absolutely love Coco’s (original) fashion design, the idea of Chanel perfumes was somewhat off-putting to me, ever since had the misfortune of having to walk around with her fabled No 5 assaulting me through my nostrils. (Read my …
Royal Oud Perfume By Creed ( For Men And Women )
The concept was mainly derived from Middle Eastern culture. I looked up the meaning of “Oud”, it is a musical instrument used in Arab countries. But Oud in here refers to the wood as one of the base notes. The write up of this perfume also suggest that the story …
Chloe Eau de Parfum
I have never used the classic Chloe scent so no comparisons will be done with the old scent, which some claim is much better than the 2008 release.
I was quite taken by the scent but hesitated very long because of the very hefty price tag.
Bottle : 5/5
I actually love …
Boss Orange Perfume
This is a new perfume from the Boss brand, which is Hugo Boss. I like their Perfumes, as they have good staying power and nice notes of fragrance, but just wished they were a little cheaper, as they tend to hold their value well.
I got a 50ml bottle of …
Antonio by Antonio Banderas cologne
This perfume has a very common appearance. The bottle was intricately placed with designs and the name “Antonio” was placed on the top. The cover was black and it was not stylish. The liquid was colored peach and it was not something extravagant at all.
The scent starts with a …
Jo Malone Spritzer Perfume
The first time I wore Jo Malone Spritzer Perfume, I found it to be a very citrusy perfume that had hints of sandalwood in it. I have to say, that it actually reminded of a men’s cologne, but not in a bad way. It just seems to …
Mackie For Women by Bob Mackie perfume
When I think about Bob Mackie, I can’t help but think about the old Carol Burnett television show. He dresses were designed by Bob Mackie, and I never forgot that. I recently tried Mackie For Women by Bob Mackie when I found a sample of it in …
Bath & Body Works Cherry Blossom Eau de Toilette
The first time I smelled the Bath and Body Works Cherry Blossom fragrance was when someone around me sprayed some on. It was THE best thing I had ever smelled and I just had to have a bottle!
Being a cheapie, I picked up one a few months later during …
Yves Saint Laurent Jazz Aftershave
This scent has been out for ages. My husband used to wear this when we first met 13 years ago and I think he had been using this for a while before I came along. I never seen the fascination for it, as I thought there was so many …
Marc Jacobs Autumn Splash Violet perfume
This perfume really interests me for all its delicacy and transparency. It has this gorgeous trail of color and intriguingly amazing to incorporate oriental with something floral. I had some to pick some new perfumes for the new season. I often change my perfume because I had this belief …
Versace Bright Crystal fragrance
I like Versace Bright Crystal perfume because it reminds me of lily of the valley. Lily of the valley is one of my favorite flowers because they are so delicate and sweet smelling. Versace Bright Crystal, to me is a very sophisticated scent that can be worn …
Attraction by Lancome perfume
It was like the feeling of a newly bathe woman which just came out from a jacuzzi enriched with floral petals, rose, gardenia and neroli. I could feel the intense mildness in its beauty but the scent was just lovely. This perfume creates a good impression on me. Its …
Intimately Beckham For Women perfume
David and Victoria Beckham is one of the most famous couples of today. I was curious about David’s line of perfume since it first came out and I was hoping that female version of his scent will also be available. When Intimately Beckham was released, I was happy …
Bath and Body Works Fragrance Mist - Carried Away
This is a nice light smelling body spray that lifts my spirits everytime I put it on. It smells so good , no matter what season it is. It is a great fragrance for all ages. It is suitable for both young and mature women alike. I think this …
Dkny Perfume
This scent remind me of a holiday I went on. This probably has something to do with that I smelt this while going through Duty Free, I liked it so therefore when I buy a new bottle of this and sniff it then I am reminded of my holiday.
This …
Cacharel Noa EDT
I went to visit one friend of mine today and we were talking about perfumes when her Mum came to sit with us and she started talking about Cacharel Noa perfume. I had a tester of this perfume and I must say that it didn’t amazed me so …
Clinique Happy Perfume Stick Set
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 …
Serge Lutens- A La Nuit
I love to spray perfume especially during spring nights when the nights are just cool enough to make me wear a long sleeved dress. I have a fascination for floral perfumes and so I bought ‘Serge Lutens- A La Nuit’. The notes included cloves, benzoin, musk, green shots, white …
The Body Shop Moroccan Rose EDT Fragrance
In perfumery, it’s an acknowledged fact that you’re supposed to pay higher for scents with more fragrance oils. I think my love for perfumes emanated from low-end, mass-produced scents, even though their compositions run low on fragrance oils. I have recently discovered Moroccan Rose from the Body …
Kenzo Power Cologne
This scent struck me because of its simplicity. After being on track in collecting perfumes, I came across this scent while collecting for my Christmas gifts first week of November. After Halloween, I would go on an early Christmas shopping to avoid panic buying and the crowd. On top …
Kim Kardashian Women’s Eau de Toilette Spray Fragrance
I have been curious about this perfume , and finally decided to give it a try. It is actually a very pretty smelling floral. This fragrance is sweet , sexy , and alluring. It is almost irresistible! If you are looking for a sensual perfume for winter then …
Fantastic Angel Thiery Mugler perfume
I don’t remember anymore when I bought this perfume. I think it was few years ago and by this time I don’t have this perfume anymore since I already finished it last year.
Fantastic Angel Thiery Mugler was another kind of perfume that I like to wear when I went …
Beauty by Calvin Klein perfume
Beauty by Calvin Klein is the latest in the installment of fragrances from the fashion emperors collection and was released very recently ( October to be precise ). This is a female fragrance and has all the hallmarks of being a very classic, feminine scent that will suit ’sensible’ …
D&G Anthology L’Amoureaux 6 by Dolce and Gabbana perfume
I was hoping to try Dolce and Gabbana’s creations for 2009. Last year was a whirlwind for me with so many things to do and try. Great was the unisex classification this perfume had which gave me a good preference considering that it can be very pleasant. I was …
Eternity for Men by Calvin Klein fragrance
Eternity by Men for Calvin Klein (”CK”) is one of CK’s signature fragrances. I bought it very recently and enjoy the scent and smell of it.
The scent of Eternity is slightly musky with a bit of spice. Smells like the fresh baked cinnamon buns and the good thing about …
Inspiration by Lacoste perfume
If you think of Lacoste the brand the first thing that pops into my head is expense. I have seen the price of the clothing in the Lacoste range over the years and it’s enough to make my eyes water, so I was very (pleasantly) surprised to find that …
A Touch of Love Perfume
A touch a Love perfume is one I highly recommend. It has been around since the early 90’s and is still a very popular brand.
It is nice blend of oriental and aromatic woods and gives off a nice feminine scent. It is long lasting and will come across …
Hugo Boss Femme perfume
I super love the stylish bottle and the perfume inside it which is a light shade of pink. I love how the smell lasts for the whole day and if I put something more it usually lasts until the evening as well. The scent is actually an epitome of …
Eau De Love Cologne
Eau De Love Cologne is a fragrance that reminds me of my older sister. This amazing lemony woodsy light cologne was worn by my sister when she was a teenager. I used to be so happy when she would let me use a little bit of it, …
Eternity Summer Perfume
The name says it all, this is another great summer scent to try out. I think it is a very friendly scent that just about every woman can stand to be around. It is light and soft, and is not to powerful. I think it is a little on …
Miracle Perfume for Women by Lancome Paris
I have been very passionate about perfumes. I started collecting it since high school. I have tried so many perfumes and would always display empty bottles on my cabinet as a souvenir. I used to love United Colors of Benetton perfumes especially Tribu and used it for more than …
The Body Shop Aqua Lily Perfume
I got this scent for Christmas and it is now one of my favourite scents out there. Such a simple scent, but just so nice and fresh smelling.
This sells in the Body Shop for £9 per 30ml. I’m not sure if this comes in larger bottles, as I always …
L’Air du Temps Eau de Toilette by Nina Ricci
I love the scent of L’Air du Temps Eau de Toilette by Nina Ricci. I have been wearing this scent off and on again since I was about eighteen years old. Although since then I have bought many other perfumes, colognes, and body mists, I do enjoy this scent. …
Prada Milano Infusion D’iris
They say you get what you pay for, and in perfumes, this is so very often the case. If I weren’t on a budget, I’d have Prada’s Infusion D’iris in my house all the time. It was introduced in 2007, but I didn’t have a chance to …
David Yurman Exotic Essence Eau de Toilette Spray
David Yurman Exotic Essence Eau de Toilette Spray, is a must have all year round. I love this perfume! This is a very sexy oriental fragrance that is both creamy and sensual. I always get compliments when I am wearing this rich scent! I just can’t get enough of …
Elizabeth Arden True Love Fragrance
I didn’t expect my sister to give me this bottled perfume labeled ‘True love’ by Elizabeth Arden. She didn’t like it. She thought instead of disposing it, she’d rather give it to me. When she handed it to me, the perfume bottle was still full and …
Juicy Couture Perfume by Juicy Couture for Women
Well, Juicy Couture Perfume by Juicy Couture has a very nice packaging you would find to be engaging, trendy and chic. The design is too feminine and I found the perfume to be playful and sweet. It has a classic flowery scent that smells to be charming and relatively …
Organza Jasmine 2007 by Givenchy perfume
While out shopping for a birthday present for my mother, I was browsing through the perfume tables scattered throughout a store when I ran into Givenchy. The bottle drew my attention immediately; it was sleek, with beautiful jasmine flowers decorating the front. To my delight, upon buying this perfume …
Tomorrow perfume by Avon
I’m a big fan of Avon products and especially love their perfumes.
At one point they were known for selling ‘cheaper’ products but recently they seem to be going up market by collaborating with some top designers.
This particular fragrance I’m reviewing today is one I have just bought from their …
Peony Soft Musk
Peony Soft Musk is so amazing. I really can not believe that I stumbled across this incredible perfume. Peonies are one of my all time favorite flowers, and it is rare that I encounter peony in a perfume. I smelled this perfume when I was at a baby shower. …
Jo Malone Red Rose Colonge For Women
I have always loved the scent of roses. When I was growing up we had a big rose bush right in front of our house , and I would love to smell it when it bloomed. This fragrance reminds me of that bush. It smells like wild uncut roses. …
Clean Province Perfume
This is a nice light and clean scent. It is not overly sexy or anything,but more of a sweet and youthful type of perfume. I think it is a little high priced for what it is. I probably won’t be buying this one again,but I am glad that I …
Cartier Delices de Cartier Eau de Toilette 1.6 oz.
This is a high end perfume that you will either love or hate. I love it! It smells bold and powerful without overdoing it. It smellls wonderfully exotic and sexy on me. I think this is an amazing scent for mature women in their 20’s or older. Some younger …
Axe Dark Temptation Deodorant Bodyspray
Hi guys!!
This review is also a description of my encounter with the product. Well one shouldn’t expect what we see in the television ad, in which a man becomes chocolaty and a million women running wildly at the back of him, but still a familiar situation.
Starting with the price …
Tweety Floral Fantasy Deodorant Body Spray
I have never been a body spray person. I am more of a perfume person and I have to have my perfume and that is all I need to keep me smelling and feeling good. I also don’t have an issue with body odor so I never …
Midnight Fantasy Eau de Parfum by Britney Spears
This perfume makes me smell fruity-licious, though sometimes it gets tiring and sickening. This perfume may be for cougars trying to attract the younger generation of the opposite sex. Why not? It makes you huggable and approachable.
The first time I open the bottle, the sweetness of mixed fruits pleases …
J Lo Perfume
I first tried one of Jennifer Lopez perfumes about 3 years ago. I bought a small bottle of the Love at First Glow. I loved the smell of it right away and its pretty much my favorite. Since then I have tried every perfume that Jennifer Lopez …
