Chanel Chance Eau de Parfum

Advantages: Long lasting
Disadvantages: Expensive

...This fragrance is like no other I have ever come across. It is totally unique. Recently new to the market but an instant classic. I sell perfume for a living in Harvey Nichols and this is a perfume adored by all. I've never once sprayed this on to someone's arm and they not have liked it. It can be worn by all ages. It's a long lasting perfume, the scent lingers with you all day. Recognisable. Classed as an oriental floral fragrance. It contains notes of hyacinth and citron, jasmine, pink pepper, fresh vetiver, orris absolute, amber patchouli and white musk. Very romantic and seductive. This product is available in 50ml, 100ml and now handbag size 3x30ml, as well as a range of bath time products. The Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche fragrance has recently been launched and is based on the original chance but a lot lighter and in my opinion does...

Eau de Kittyfluff

Advantages: Smells so darkly sexy!
Disadvantages: The bottle weighs a tonne..

...Now I am a fussy girlie when it comes to buying perfume. It has to be expensive, it has to be an eau de parfum, and you have to be able to smell me coming a mile away. I love dark, musky scents with hints of Indian Spice and incense. I just can't abide by fresh,fruity rubbish. I don't wish to smell like a bowl of pot pourri or a magic tree car air freshner. I discovered this particular fragrance whilst shopping just before Christmas with my beloved Mr Fluff. Who was at the time sweating his nads off trying to think of what to buy his little fluffball. This was when I found one of those open style perfumeries. The girl looked a little bored, so I told her what kind of things I liked and then made her run around spraying endless testers on to those little card sniffy things.I think she was quite incensed by the fact that I told her...

Review of Gucci Eau de Parfum

J'aime ce parfum

Advantages: Beautiful fragrance, Beautiful bottle, beautiful package, long - lasting, affordable
Disadvantages: None

...unique and beautiful golden and glass cover top. It is a beautiful bottle and when I am shopping for perfumes, the bottle normally draws me to a perfume as much as the perfume itself... In my opinion, the shape of this bottle is similar to the womanly curves and very appealing with the golden cover.. I'd describe the fragrance as a sweet flowery scent which is strong enough that it lasts all day when applied. I apply it to my wrists, rub in and to my neck and can still still get wafts of the fragrance much later in the day so if you're looking for a lovely long-lasting fragrance, this is one of them. J'adore contains alcohol, water, mandarin, ivy leaves, the champaca flower, orchids, roses, violets, damascus plum, amaranth wood, and blackberry musk. Yup flowers, flowers and more flowers... It is long lasting as you only have to use...

Stella McCartney - Stella Eau de Parfum

Advantages: Lovely long lasting fragrance with woody depths
Disadvantages: None

...- Sheer and In Two - but neither of them is quite as good as the original. Eau de parfum: 100mls - £56.00 50mls - £39.50 30mls - £20.00 There's also a body milk and a shower cream, but I didn't think they were terribly good and the fragrance didn't last....

Review of Stella McCartney Stella Eau De Parfum Spray for Her

Beautiful Miss Dior Cherie

Advantages: smells divine, not heavy
Disadvantages: pricey, can be hard to find

...Absoultely lovely scent. Actually, it's deeper than just a 'scent' it is indeed a perfume, in that it smells gorgeous when you put it on, and it leaves you smelling beautiful all day. It feels really light, but not weak or cheap. Initially it smells a bit sharp, but it settles very quickly. It feels quite classy! When I wear this perfume it certainly turns heads, but mostly of other girls or women should I say, coming up to me and asking what it is. It is quite a sweet smell, compared to most perfumes. Very different. It can be difficult to track down this perfume, and it can be pricey, but consider it a very special treat, that once a year over indulgence! Keep an eye out over Christmas or Valentines Day for those special deals where you get a bonus gift pack or something. Go on, spoil yourself!...

Review of Christian Dior Miss Dior Cherie Eau de Parfum Spray

Wow! I love that Aadehydes smell you're wearing !!

Advantages: This is THE perfume - pure class!
Disadvantages: Expensive but worth it.

...also know that all my daughters have been keen to pinch a squirt from their teenage years onwards. History of the perfume When Coco Chanel commissioned Ernest Beaux to make a new perfume she told him "I want to give women an artificial perfume.Yes, I really do mean artificial, like a dress, something that has been made. I don't want any rose or lily of the valley, I want a perfume that is a composition." She wanted perfume to be 'un parfum de femme, à l'odeur de femme (the scent/smell of a woman)' Consequently this perfume was the first perfume to heavily rely on synthetic floral aldehydes. It is alleged that the perfume got its name when Coco was given a range of different perfumes numbered from 1 to 6 by Beaux to chose as her first perfume she chose number five, number five was also her lucky number Andy...

As worn by Marilyn and me in bed....

Review of Chanel No.5 Eau De Parfum Spray

Can you think of 5 places to dab it

Advantages: Smells wonderful, suits any occasion and most people, samples easily available
Disadvantages: A little costly

...samples which they give away quite happily it seems, so you will probably be able to take a sample of one or two items away to try at home (I have seen samples of pressed powder, bath gel, body lotion and perfume). The cost is higher than a lot of perfumes, but it does last well. It?s not a perfume you have to re-apply every couple of hours when you?re out so you don?t use it up all at once. A 50ml bottle of Eau De Toilette will set you back approx. £35-37 depending on where you buy it. This does seem fairly expensive when you first hear the cost, but a bottle this size used a couple of times a week usually lasts me a good six months, so that?s really not too bad when you think that broken down it?s only about £6 per month. (A 100ml bottle of Eau De Parfum is approx. £67-70). Another thing to think about if you buy the branded perfumes...

Review of Chanel No.5 Eau De Parfum Spray

Number 5 is number 1 with me

Advantages: Never dated
Disadvantages: Can't think of one

...My mother used to use this perfume and when I was younger I therefore assumed it was for older ladies! But Mum lent me some when I had forgotten my perfume one holiday in my early 20s and boy did I change my mind. I have used it ever since - first of all for "best" but now I use it almost exclusively, I like it that much. The bottles are beautifully elegant and the perfume matches the look - elegant and classy, floral but not overly so, nor too musky, yet strong enough to last for several hours. You can of course also get other items than the perfume - see list below, though I admit I do not use the soap because I use shower crèmes and face wash. If I used soap it would be this one. Chanel perfume is not cheap but then no designer perfume is these days - you can get the l'eau de toilette a little less expensively than...
