Perfume Power! - Sarah Jessica Parker 'Covet'

I bought this perfume back in March. I tested it a couple of years ago and I thought I liked it, but since buying it my opinion has slightly changed.

The bottle design is a flower. The cap looks like petals and the base of the bottle is rounded, so to me it looks like a flower. It is clear glass and the liquid is a green/yellow colour. I really like the bottle design; it is very feminine and will look cute sat on a dressing table.

The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Lavender, Pelargonium Leaf, Dark Chocolate & Sicilian Lemon
Middle Notes: Honeysuckle, Magnolia & Lily Of The Valley
Base Notes: Amber, Musk, Cashmere Wood, Vetiver & Teak Wood

To me it smells very floral and mature. I can smell the musk, lily of the valley and sicilian lemon, but I can’t pick out any other of the notes. If chocolate wasn’t listed, I would never have known it was in there! It does last a while on the skin, for me it lasted an hour and then lingered slightly for a bit after. I suppose that is bad, but I haven’t yet found a fragrance that will last all day! It is not a young scent, because it is more floral and not fruity or sweet, but it still appeals to me and I’m nineteen. Having said that, it is not really my kind of scent, it is really lovely, but I know whether something is my scent after one sniff!

Becca's Babble's #5: My Favourite Films

Last month I shared with you my current favourite songs and today I thought I would mention my all-time favourite films. I might do another post on my favourite TV series, but that would probably be a very long list. Here are my top twelve favourite films (in year and alphabetical order):- The Wizard of Oz (1939) This is the oldest of my favourite films and it is a classic! I don’t think a synopsis is needed by me for this film. It is a really magical film, especially for the era it was made in where there was no CGI and they had to get creative for the special effects. I really enjoy this colourful, magical and musical film. Return to Oz (1985) The film is set after Dorothy returns home from Oz. It isn’t really a continuation of the Wizard of Oz film as it was made decades later and doesn’t feature any original cast. It also isn’t a musical. Dorothy finds herself back in Oz and realises it needs saving from some terrible people as a lot has changed there since she retur...
