Perfume Power! - DKNY 'Stories'

I’ve had this perfume for a while now and I originally bought it as part of a gift set during the Christmas sales.

The bottle is made of clear glass and it is hexagonal shaped. I believe the bottle is supposed to look like a New York skyscraper. The neck of the bottle has a thick metallic ring around it, with DKNY printed around it. On top of the ring sits the metallic cylindrical cap, which lifts off to reveal a spritzer which you press down to dispense the scent. You can purchase it in 30ml (£43.50), 50ml (£59.50) and 100ml (£79.50/$98.00) from DonnaKaran.com and Boots.com.

The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Guava, Milk Mousse, Pink Pepper & Black Cardamom
Middle Notes: Jasmine Sambac, Iris & White Tea
Base Notes: Vanilla, White Sandalwood & Ambergris

I like bottle design; it is simple but beautifully elegant. It is quite a strong scent, so it will last a very long time on your skin. The scent is divine! It is quite a mature scent compared to my usual tastes, but it still smells really sparkling. It is definitely a floral scent, but there are just enough non-floral notes to tone it down so it doesn’t smell like a really mature floral scent. I can really smell the pink pepper, jasmine sambac, vanilla and white sandalwood notes. It is one of my favourite perfumes and I highly recommend you give it a sniff. I will definitely look at buying the 100ml bottle when I have finished this 30ml one.

KALEIDOS Space Age Highlighters #2

When I first heard that KALEIDOS was releasing a new Space Age highlighter, I knew I would be getting it! They have also updated the packaging of all of the highlighter tins and they reformulated Mars Melter. They were re-stocking all of the highlighters on Monday 9 th November 8pm PST, so that was Tuesday 10 th November 4am for me! I stayed up waiting for the website to be live and I finally got my hands on Sky Walker and I also picked up the reformulated Mars Melter and the new Space Age Prophecy of course! There was also a sale on the whole site, I got Mars Melter and Sky Walker for $10.50 (RRP $14.00) each and The Space Age Prophecy for $27.00 (RRP $36.00). I am really surprised they offered a discount for the newest highlighter as it was also the launch date for it and there is only a limited quantity available of this highlighter every week. I was very lucky; I got on the site at 4:01am and was checked out and paid up by 4:03am! I paid $8.00 shipping and my order came to $56.00...
