Serial Sampler #2

Today I am sharing another sample, which I received in last month’s Glossybox.

It is L’Amour by LALIQUE and it is a 2ml sample dabber of the eau de parfum. The card packet is quite appealing in a velvet pink shade with gold bordering and detailing.

“A sensuous floral fragrance, a love potion for absolute seduction”.
It smells really nice, fresh and delicate and you can really smell the rose and bergamot. It might be too floral for some people, but I think the other notes balance it out beautifully. I also love the dispenser. It is like a salt shaker and it makes it easier to apply, instead of the vile being open when you take the cap off. I would have preferred the regular spritzer though, but it’s only a sample and the full size bottles have the spritzer.

It is a lovely perfume, but I’m not sure I would buy it in a full size bottle! I love loads of perfumes, but I know the difference between me loving the scent and it being ‘my scent’. It is also quite expensive, so if you are interested in purchasing it, I would suggest checking sites like AllBeauty.com first to see if they have it on sale for a cheaper price.

What do you think of this perfume?

O.P.I Breakfast at Tiffany's Mini Mani Month Set

I heard that O.P.I would be releasing a Breakfast at Tiffany’s Collection and I was really interesting in trying some shades, so when I was browsing the O.P.I website and came across this set, I snapped it up straight away! The packaging is like a white and lilac fashion book and it has a beauty advent calendar vibe. It is a sort of alternative to a beauty calendar. There are five rows with five shades covering two sides of the book. You can open the windows that cover the shades, but it will reveal all five shades, which is why it doesn’t quite pass as a calendar. Plus, you can’t actually take the bottles out like you would a beauty/chocolate calendar. You have to open the sides of the book and pull out the five separate plastic trays which hold the bottles. There seems to be a lot of wasted packaging this way. You get twenty-five 3.75ml bottles of Nail Lacquer and the set contains new shades from the Breakfast at Tiffany’s Collection, and some old favourites already pa...

GUCCI Mini Perfume Gift Set

Today I am going to review a perfume gift set that I bought from Boots.com during their Boxing Day sales 2014. It is the GUCCI Miniatures Gift Set and it was exclusively sold in Boots stores and on Boots.com. I love the concept of mini perfume sets and it’s a shame that not more brands do them! You get to sample more scents from brands, and if there is a certain perfume you are interested in, you would be able to sample it before potentially wasting your money buying a full size bottle of a scent you might not like. In this particular set you get five (5ml) mini fragrances to sample and I actually already bought a full size of the Guilty scent, but waited until I got this set to test it! A big gamble I know, but it did pay off this time! Here are the five miniature bottles of scents included:- FLORA BY GUCCI The bottle is so cute and with a little ribbon bow too. The notes contained in this little bottle are; citrus, peony, mandarin, osmanthus, rose, sandalwood, patchouli and ...
