When it comes to purchasing Perfumes I'm a bit of a demon and I adore buying them. I love and appreciate nice perfumes in my life and tend to buy alot (and get bought alot thankfully) of very expensive stuff however occasionally I will opt for something a bit cheaper price wise for more day time usage to try slow me down on battering the more expensive stuff I own!
This fragrance (for a 75ml bottle) will you set back probably at most about a tenner however I got mine in T.J Hughes for £4.99 last week though I have paid a tenner before in Boots (when I bought it for someone else) and this is widely available in a variety of stores.
The Packaging....
It comes in a clear domed shaped outer casing with no information on it at all. The bottle is a dark red metallic bottle with metallic silver writing on it (written on length-ways down the bottle) which simply tells me it's Diesel, Fragrances, Zero Plus Feminine Eau De Toilette, 75ml, 2,5 fl.oz, 82% Vol. That's it in the information stakes apart from there being a red sticky label on the base of the bottle that tells me (again in silver writing) that it's made by Marbert Cosmetics and is flammable and although it's called feminine in my view it really doesn't appear that way. It's simple, has no lid and simply has an exposed silver push button sprayer to the top. I guess you would say it's modern but it isn't something you'd look at twice due to it's raging beauty or anything lol
Using It....
Well of course it sprays out very easily. You simply push the button and small squirts come out evenly. It goes on quite wet but dries immediately leaving absolutely no sticky/greasy residue at all on the skin. So you can use it and forget about it...although not quite..due to it's very strong fragrance....
Fragrance wise it's actually a blend of fresh blend of plum, mandarin, jasmine and geranium with warm undertones of vanilla, tonka bean and musk and deemed to be an Oriental fragrance. Now that's an odd blend of ingredients and I wasn't expecting all of them blended together at all as my nasal passages tell me it's coconut with a musk smell giving it depth and vanilla giving it a sweetness but I wasn't expecting no coconut to be listed at all so that is confusing to my brain lol!
It's an unusual blend and smells smooth and rich. However this really isn't for me at all. It's clean and fresh and I'd say if you like it it's best for evening use and not only does it spray on strong it stays strong for about three hours. Personally I find this rather sickly till after the three hours pass when it does start to fade which is then when I don't mind it too much but it's still strong and doesn't lose it's fragrance completely!
You don't need a load of this on, a few squirts really is enough or you can start to feel a bit sick (and it occasionally gives me a migraine for some reason) but for me really this is simply a very heavy smelling fragrance which you don't expect from a coconutty smelling perfume!
