Having not had the best time over the last few weeks I took a short break from blogging, but needless to say as much as I needed the break, I missed it and everyone! So I am back 🙂 Hopefully from now I should be back blogging a few times a week so look forward to chatting to everyone again, along with reading and replying to all comments left. For today’s post I have decided to do a perfume review of one of my favourites, Manifesto by Yves Saint Laurent. This fragrance was launched last year in 2012 around August time, so as much as it isn’t a brand new…

My plan was to do a fragrance post on a lovely warm, slightly spicy scent for the cooler months, something more seasonally appropriate, but in all honesty I have been loving this perfume recently so wanted to share it with you all. I had known about the Princess by Vera Wang perfume for quite a while, and thought the bottle was really pretty, but had never been overly intrigued to have a smell of it to see what I thought. It was only after reading some other blog reviews and reading the notes that are in it that I decided to give it a test on my skin and low…

This is a fragrance post/review, but with a bit of a twist! It’s Oceane by Biotherm, and it is an eau de toilette spray, but this fragrance is also good for you as it also helps to moisturise the skin which is always an added bonus, especially this time of the year when the weather here in the UK gets a lot colder and your skin starts to dry out more. On the box it says “Take a deep breath and rediscover the sensation of walking by the sea…Dive into the aquatic freshness of this marine inspired fragrance with its fresh and floral notes”. Does that not just sound amazing?…

In this post I decided to talk about a beautiful fragrance that is one of my favourite lighter autumn scents – Dahlia Noir by Givenchy. I really love the packaging of this perfume, for both the box and the bottle. The packaging of both the box and the bottle of a fragrance is really important to me. As much as it shouldn’t really be within the decision making process when buying a new fragrance, it is something you will have spent quite a lot of money on, and will be sitting out on show for the next year or two so helps if you like the look of it too!…

This post is a look at the new fragrance by Giorgio Armani called Si.   This really is such a beautiful fragrance. It has been brought out as his new premium fragrance, and you can really tell. Straight from the Armani Beauty website it says “At once chic, voluptuous, intense, and soft, Sì lingers on the skin and enchants the senses.  The perfume combines 3 notes: blackcurrant nectar, modern chypre, and blond wood musk with touches of freesia and May rose.” It doesn’t smell like blackcurrant to me, but there is a definite fruity sweetness to it initially, which settles right down once allowed to develop onto the skin. It…

This review will be on the fragrance Dot by Marc Jacobs. This fragrance came out in 2012 so it isn’t brand new, but the reason I decided to review this one now is that his brand new one Honey has just been launched and there is a lot of reviews about that one in blogs and other reviews. They aren’t hugely similar, but in having similar bottles I have been finding a few comparisons online, but I personally prefer this one. So this is Dot by Marc Jacobs: Marc Jacobs never fails to bring out beautiful collectible looking fragrance bottles, of course with matching boxes/packaging. I will say that it…
