Perfume Power! - Hugo Boss 'BOSS Ma Vie'

I have decided to do a review on the perfume I chose from my Boots Christmas Scent set. It’s taken me a while, but I finally cashed in my voucher and picked my bottle up. For those of you that may not have seen my blog post on the perfume tester set, basically I had a set with eight vials of the best-selling female perfumes at Boots. You got a voucher with the set and you had to choose your favourite scent out of the eight and then you could take your voucher to any Boots store and claim your bottle. If you received the set as a gift, then technically you get to choose a bottle for free. I actually bought the set myself, so it meant I got to try eight different scents before decided on one. The whole idea was for me to test perfumes that I wouldn’t have chosen to test in person or ‘blind bought’ online.

I got the 30ml bottle in the eau de parfum. The bottle itself is cuboid shaped and has a little weight to it. It has a gold band around the top with the brand name imprinted on it. I would say the bottle is made out of glass and is a pearl nude pink colour. The cap is a clear plastic cuboid shape with a slightly diagonally slanted top. This perfume has a classic gold spritzer button to dispense the scent.

The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Cactus Flower
Middle Notes: Pink Freesia, Jasmine & Rose
Base Notes: Cedar & Wood

I do really like this scent. I can mostly smell the jasmine and cedar, but the freesia does peek through. It smells really light, fresh, feminine and kind of sparkling. As the notes suggest, it is a floral scent. It is definitely not my typical choice for a perfume, but it is a nice surprise and it does last a while on your skin. I really like the bottle and it has a nice classic kind of look to it.

Overall I really do like this scent and I can see that as I wear it more, I may begin to love it even though it is not a typical scent choice for me. I would definitely recommend it and I think it is suitable for any age, although I do think it would appeal more to the older generation as it is quite light. At this moment in time, I don’t see myself re-purchasing it, but this could change.

Serial Sampler #16

I have a mascara sample I would like to share with you today. It is  False Lashes Extreme Black  by  MAC  and it is a 1g sample of the full size mascara. It is supposed to make your lashes appear thick, voluminous and full feathered with its ultra-thickening carbon black pigment mousse like formula. It should also lengthen, curl and separate your lashes and it should be long wearing, flake proof and smudge proof. This mascara does add quite a bit volume to your lashes, as well as length, separation and definition. It also slightly curls the tips of your lashes. I’m not sure if the ultra-thickening formula and carbon black pigment really adds anything extra and I wouldn’t say that it really gives you a full feathered look. It was easy to apply and after a couple of coats you are good to go. The effects do last all day, it is smudge-proof but not flake proof and I do like the small thin and precise brush. I did enjoy using this mascara and I would be int...
