If only this was a scratch 'n' sniff post...

13


Does anyone remember them Horrible History / Science magazines with the scratch 'n' sniff cards!?! (okay, yep only me!.. awks!) or let's hope you guys reading this in the future... so let's say 2030 congratulations to the 4D laptops.. and I hope you're enjoying these smells. I'm someone who sprays herself silly with endless amounts of scents, surely I can't be the only one, also I can never religiously stick to the one perfume.. I need to spice it up! When Christmas and birthdays come around, and luckily for me their always spread out ideally when I run out of perfume, I always discover new scents.. so stay tuned for an updated post in July!


River Island House Eau De Toilette


I'm not a massive fan of their fashion as a brand, but once again I was a bit apprehensive due to the gold packaging.. as in my opinion looks a slight tacky, in the sense it's trying to look more expensive (soz) However my friends, don't judge a book by its cover. If you love floral scents, then this is perfect.


 Ted Baker London Body Spray Regency Collection


Again Ted Baker as a brand I feel has had a transformation, in a similar sense to Burberry however just on a wider scale. I used to associate the brand as tacky, but it might be due to the horrific plastic "designer bags" that everyone at school would have. But I love their prints on not only their fragrances but their clothes as well. If you love Chanel's Coco Mademoiselle or the Soap and Glory products scent then this would be a perfect alternative for a daily spritz. I always love to stock up on this when it's 3 for 2!


Vera Wang Be Jeweled Eau De Parfum


Notes of pomegranate, red currant, champagne, passion fruit, floral, musk infused woods and pink sugar crystals. In store I say this perfume is a bit on the pricey side, but if you search high and low online you can get a real bargain .. or wait till Christmas when Boots have their sales, to be honest you shouldn't deprive yourself for so long.


DKNY Be Delicious Eau De Parfum


I love the signature design of this as I can imagine it on a fruit stall scattered in the green apples. I love this scent, as once sprayed it leaves a very fresh aroma. This perfume would definitely be best for a day scent, and the purple Delicious Night is more intense and definitely an evening perfume which I used to have. If you're someone of seasonal preference when it comes to perfume this one would be perfect in the summer!


Boots Extracts Vanilla Body Spray


For £2.50 you can't go wrong with this.. I absolutely adore the smell of vanilla. Recently Boots had changed their packaging of these bottles and I was so sad because I thought these scents had been discontinued but thankfully their still around. I also love the mango and passion fruit scent.


Britney Spears Midnight Fantasy Eau De Parfum


Floral & fruity with notes of amber, musk and vanilla. Guilty as charged! I'm definitely someone who snubbed celebrity fragrances as a cheap outlet to reach their audience, but after purchasing 'curious' due to falling head over heels for a friend's scent, I thought I'd try out some more especially thanks to the January sales.


I'd love to be a nosey bugger.. go on tell me you're favourite scents, and I would love to know any recommendations. Don’t forget to follow me on here,  and where I regularly update via Instagram and Twitter and Bloglovin.
