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...

Guerlain Insolence Eau de Toilette - a little bit too bold

Advantages: Fairly pleasant scent; beautiful bottle; very good staying power
Disadvantages: Doesn't smell as expensive as it is; rather heavy and old-fashioned

...I bought a selection of mini perfumes from Boots as a treat for myself - it was reduced to £8 and contained five fragrances so I thought that was pretty good value, and I really enjoy trying new perfumes. I had previously seen an advert for Guerlain Insolence. What struck me about that was that I really didn't like the name; insolence is defined as 'an arrogant, insulting or bold mode of conduct or attitude'. To me that doesn't seem anything to aspire to; perhaps they were aiming at a vaguely 'rebellious' teenage market, which would also explain why it's the sponsor for the programme Gossip Girl, which thankfully I have never had to watch. The bottle - even the miniature version I have - is really rather pretty, with a glass rose shape forming the lid, which sits on the rounded bottle at a jaunty angle. I applied the perfume to my...

Miss Sixty Eau De Toilette Spray

Advantages: Miss Sixty Eau De Toilette Spray
Disadvantages: Miss Sixty Eau De Toilette Spray

...Miss Sixty Eau De Toilette Spray I do love my perfumes and I think my friends and family are pleased that I am so easy to buy for at birthdays and Christmas. I often like most perfumes and find that each fragrance has a particular time of the year or time of the day where it is suited to. I do of course have my favourites and this Miss Sixty perfume is one of them. I have used up I would say at least 2 or 3 bottles of this stuff since it came out about 3 years ago. This means I must use quite a lot because I have such a wide variety in the bathroom and these Miss Sixty bottles hold a fair bit of the perfume. I am mostly bought perfumes from people and don?t end up having to pay anything for them and I think this bottle is no different. I know that you would be looking at paying between £20 and £20 for a standard...

Review of Miss Sixty Eau De Toilette Spray for Her

Cacharel Eau De Eden

Advantages: light enticing scent
Disadvantages: turned darker in color after a year

...Cacharel Eau De Eden Eau De Toilette Spray was created by Jean Guichard in 1996. It was launched the same year. Eau de Eden is a lighter version of Eden, that was launched two years after the original scent. I liked Eden a tad more than this. I like the light flowery scent. But its too light i guess to stay on long like lou lou or anais anais which are also cacharel scents. It has the usual Cacharel flowery box but the bottle looks too plain for me. I have a wide array of perfumes so i tend to use a diffrent one every day. I noticed that the liquid inside the bottle turned darker in color after a year. I threw the box and I am not sure if i saw any manufacturing date on it. It could have been an old stock at the shop i that i bought it from. Other than that, I can say that i got what i paid for in buying a bottle of this...

Lolita Lempick Eau de parfum

Advantages: Great smell, great staying power
Disadvantages: Pricey, hard to find

...I first came across Lolita Lempicka when i received a free tester of this fragrance and i was immediatley hooked. Although a fantastic scent the real let down is that is is so hard to find in the shops. With only really big department stores such as Harrods and Selfridges stocking it. It is however very easy to buy online and you will get it a lot cheaper, i would say around £40 - £50. Buying it from a department store will set you back up to £80. Pricey compared to most perfumes but once you smell it you will see why. The bottle is shaped like an apple with gold detailing and you push down the stalk of the apple and the scent is released. A little awkward to get used to as the stalk is small and thin .A great and unique idea which i havent come across before. With top notes of Bergamot and orange. Heart notes of musk...

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...

Review of Chanel Chance Eau De Parfum Spray

a lovely perfume

Advantages: great smell
Disadvantages: none

...****Hugo Boss: Femme, Eau de Parfum **** As i have previously said i love perfumes so after i sampled this in a max factor gift set i went out and purchased it because i thought it was so nice. Hugo Boss have a wide range of perfumes and is quite a known brand but surprisingly i think that this is the first perfume i have purchased by them(as far as i can remember any way). As it is well known my expectations were quite high and i was happy to receive first the sample and then to find it was on offer. As i was going by the smell before i saw the bottle it was a nice bonus that the bottle for this is quite pretty. The bottle is circular and made of glass that is quite thick. The overall look is that the bottle is of a high quality and i think i will be keeping the bottle after the perfume is finished. The first smell you are hit...

Review of Hugo Boss Boss Femme Perfume Eau De Parfum Spray

A tinker of a perfume!

Advantages: Sexy, seductive and long lasting on and off the skin
Disadvantages: Not a great bottle, may be too strong for some people

...'t mind being unique though it must be said lol. Watch out for men though they don't half get the horn with this one I have literally had men chucking themselves at me when I've worn his lol. If you want to seduce someone this should be your weapon of choice. Not only does it smell sexy as hell I find it makes me feel that way too! It's just really uplifting and sexy. You can now purchase other 'Obsessions' such as Obsession Night and Obsession Sheer, the Obsession 'Original' (I'm reviewing here) and it's available for men and women and the Obsession for Night also is available for men and women. Shower gel, moisturising lotion and deodorants are available for this particular fragrance as well so you can layer the scent if you desire but do be careful not to over do it. Eau De Parfum Spray For Women .... (Around about the prices you should...

Review of Calvin Klein Obsession Eau de Parfum Spray

My first perfume

Advantages: smells nice
Disadvantages: NONE

...****Tommy Hilfiger: Tommy Girl, Eau de Toilette **** This was actually the first proper perfume i got and it started my love for perfumes. Before i tried this i thought of perfumes as musky,bad smelling things that my grandmother kept on her dressing table(well i was about 10).My only experience of nice perfume had been a sweet smelling bottle i had got with a beach barbie doll(mmmm coconuts) and i thought of this as an exception to the rule that perfumes smelled bad. So anyway after trying this i decided i loved it and i have to admit i have never had a bottle of perfume last as long as this one did as i used to just wear it on special occasions as i did not want it to run out. **About Tommy Hilifiger** As a kid brand names didn't mean anything to me but i would class it as a designer brand (another word for over priced lol) They sell...
