Zara's Legendary £9.99 Perfumes

Image
If you're not in the know of the Zara perfumes then you really must get to know. The EDTs are genuinely so comparable in quality of scent to high end fragrances and the price of £9.99 for 100ml makes them even more of a catch. Although the Red Vanilla scent is the only one in my collection as of right now, so many of my friends have tried and own an abundance of perfumes from the Zara range and they all sing their praises to the max! The notes as offered by Zara for this perfume are " The scent reveals notes of blackcurrant, iris and vanilla. It’s a warm, elegant and long-lasting fragrance." It's a really sweet scent which I love and I would say it is comparable to Giorgio Armarni's Si which also has notes of blackcurrant and vanilla. So if you are a fan of Si, like me, but not a fan of it's price tag, then definitely try this one! Or have a whiff of the other perfumes Zara has to offer and you will not be disappointed.   I wear this every day as ...

A Spring Scent

     This is the most gorgeous, light, fresh and fruity smelling scent I own and I can't get enough of it! It feels really lifting and I always feel fresh when wearing this. The scent lingers all day, so is perfect for work or school, in my case both. It is so spring like, and fresh so suits this abnormally warm weather perfectly. It is pricey at £42 but I think fragrances are worth investing in as they can really brighten your mood and who doesn't want to smell nice, eh! I hope you're all well, Lots of love as always, Son x What is your favourite scent of the moment?          

I Have Found The One In a Perfume

    Giorgio Armani's Si has been playing on my mind for yonks now. Every time I have been in to a boots or fragrance shop I have subconsciously found myself swanning over to the Giorgio Armani counter, spraying Si and being engulfed in its wonderful aromas. The one thing that let me down was the price tag, although expected with such a high end product, £80 for a perfume was definitely not within my budget. However my mum had noticed my woes and surprised me with this, what an absolute star. It is the loveliest most light and fresh but sweet and floral perfume I have ever smelt and I couldn't be happier. I think I have found the perfume for me! What is your favourite perfume? Lots of love, Son x    

Thierry Mugler Alien

This perfume has been my 'special occasion' scent since Christmas and still every time I get a whiff of this on someone else or myself I fall in love with it all over again. Thierry Mugler Alien Eau De Parfum retails for £48 and you can get it from most fragrance shops. I am utterly awful when it comes to describing smells so I thought I would copy the fragrance description "A rich floral woody amber containing jasmine sambac, cashmeran wood and white amber it is a fragrance whose magic tral awakens your emotions." Well doesn't that sound fancy! I personally wouldn't say that this is a particularly delicate scent so if you're not into quite heavy fragrances I would say that this probably isn't for you. However I am definitely a fan of more concentrated smells and so this is up there alongside my Burberry Body in the top 3 perfumes I have tried! Which is your favourite fragrance? Lots of love, son x
