Anyone who has read even one of my previous
posts will be quite aware of my ‘scents of choice’. Give me a deep,
non-powdery, floral, very slightly sweet and woody fragrance and I’m one happy
lady! So what are the perfumes that I reach for time and time again? From left,
to right…!
Gucci Flora – Gracious Tuberose
Following the success of the Gucci
fragrance Flora, they soon released a range with 3 different floral
scents – all, I have to say, beautiful. I love this Gracious Tuberose scent. It’s super summery,
floral, light and a little sweet. I like that it’s quite playful and not really
too much of a grown up scent. All in all, a perfect element of my collection.
Chloe de Roses
Mmm mm mmmm this smells so good! It’s my
latest addition to the bunch and it’s beautiful. Probably the sweetest out of
the lot but it’s got good floral tones and it’s so longlasting! It’s a great
dupe for Jo Malone’s Peony & Blush Suede as
I initially intended to get this but on the swatch in my bag, Chloe
literally just hit me every time I opened the zip. I think the packaging is
great, the bottle is really classy but cute. Safe to say I’ve been loving this one this month.
Viktor & Rolf – Flowerbomb
Oof, hello you! This is my absolute
favourite perfume in the world, my desert island item, it’s simply out of this
world. The bottles are always beautiful, this one is especially cute as it's one of the limited edition ones with the really sweet metallic pink and tutu! Compared to the first two, it definitely has a deeper slightly woody
note but also a distinct sweet hit – it’s incredibly unique. Actual coolest
moment of my life was when I was in a New York Cheesecake Shop and the guy
right across the till said in the most incredible American accent “Oh my god,
wow you smell amazing, is that vanilla?!” Oh the wonderful effects of this
perfume!
Elie Saab
There’s only one word that describes this
perfume and that’s jasmine! It’s definitely the most authentic floral of
the bunch and I’d say the most grown up scent. I think it works best definitely an evening or
autumn/winter scent for me as it’s definitely got a little musky tone. As you
can see, it’s another one I’m a huge fan of and it’s been well used!
I rate all of these perfumes and think they
make a great collection altogether, I urge everyone to go give them a sniff!
What are your faves? Any you think I’d like? I’d love to hear it J
