Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Signature'

This was the first ever perfume I bought myself and I was still at school at the time. I only ever had the one bottle and it has been many a year since I used it up and last caught a whiff of this scent! I recently had a craving to smell it again, so I decided to get myself a bottle. The bottle is made of glass and has a sort of hourglass/silhouette shape. There is a black flowery lace design all over the front of the bottle. The bottle design is apparently inspired by a dress that the designer Marcel Rochas made for actress Mae West. The clear plastic cap is almost diamond shaped and it lifts off to reveal a spritzer, which you press down to dispense the scent. You can purchase it in 30ml for £20.00 from AllBeauty.com and FragranceDirect.co.uk. Launched: 2007 Type: Fruity with soft floral undertones. Classification: Eau De Parfum Notes Top: Black Currant, Tangerine, Exotic Fruits and Pineapple. Middle: Peony, Plum and Jasmine. Base: Vanilla, White M...

Haul: Recent Purchases #8

I recently bought some cosmetic products and I thought I would share them with you. It is mostly skincare and there is not one make-up product, which is a shock to me! I haven’t really bought any make-up recently; I am almost getting withdrawals (joke), but my bank account isn’t mad with me! From FeelUnique.com, I purchased the L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Laser Renew Super Serum for £24.99, Garnier Moisture Bomb Super-Hydrating 3 in 1 Moisturiser SPF10 for £7.99, Garnier Moisture Bomb Super-Recharging Gel-Cream Night for £7.99 and because there was a 3 for 2 offer on Garnier products, I also got a Garnier Moisture Bomb Deep Sea Water & Hyaluronic Acid Night-Time Eye Tissue Mask for FREE (RRP £2.99). I also received a FREE perfume sample as I spent over a certain amount of money on my order. I just wanted to test out some new skincare and try a new serum. I currently use Charlotte Tilbury Charlotte’s Magic Serum Crystal Elixir and I have almost finished it. I’m not really sur...

Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Definition'

I have tried many Christina Aguilera fragrances over the years and this is the most recent one I have purchased. The bottle design is similar to the CA fragrances and the outer box is also lace and flower themed. The bottle is a clear glass vase shape and is has a small black ribbon tied into a bow around the neck. The cap is diamond shaped and made out of clear plastic. It has the usual silver spritzer to dispense the scent. I purchased the 30ml bottle and it is available for £20.50 from places such as, AllBeauty.com and Sephora. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Sicilian Bergamot, Italian Mandarin & Red Apple Middle Notes: Vanilla Orchid & Diamond Orchid Base Notes: Hinoki Wood, Ambergris, Heliotrope & Musk The vanilla scent is the strongest and it is kind of a classic evening time of scent. It reminds me a little bit of Far Away by Avon, but it is fruiter. It is not my typical scent, but I do actually like it. As soon as I smelt it, it reminded...

Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Glam X'

I have been purchasing and testing a lot of Christina Aguilera perfumes and this one was next on my list. The bottle has a yellow gold glass rounded hourglass shape with a black lace flower design near the neck of the bottle and the name is written in red font across the front. It also has a plastic diamond shaped cap and a regular perfume spritzer. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Mandarin Orange, Peach, Star Anise & Orange Blossom Middle Notes: Freesia, Lily-of-the-Valley, Heliotrope & Jasmine Base Notes: Sandalwood, Amber, Musk & Benzoin The bottle is very nice and the scent does last quite a long time on your skin. You can mostly smell the musk and floral notes, which make it, smell deep and kind of mature. When I first smelled it, I didn’t like it. It is not my typical kind of scent, but it is ok. It kind of reminds me of Loverdose by Diesel, which has liquorice as a note. I personally wouldn’t re-purchase it, but I would recommend it. ...

Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Touch Of Seduction'

This perfume was also on my test list on Fragrantica and I bought it at the same time as Christina Aguilera ‘Woman’. I got the 30ml bottle in the eau de parfum. The bottle is made of glass and is a sort of rounded hourglass shape. It has pink velvet rose design part way down the bottom of the bottle and Christina’s name is printed in hot pink and the perfume name is also printed in hot pink at the top of the bottle. It has rose gold banding around the neck for the cap to sit on. The cap is clear plastic and kind of diamond shaped. It has a rose gold spritzer to dispense the scent. On the outer cardboard box it had this description; “Stirs inner passion like the velvety petals of a rose bouquet”. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Raspberry, Litchi & Freesia Middle Notes: Rose, Honeysuckle & Iris Base Notes: Musk, Vanilla & Sandalwood I like the bottle design, it is simple but pretty. It is a very light scent and the strongest note is definitely rose...

Perfume Power! - Christina Aguilera 'Woman'

I decided to buy this perfume as it was on my test list on Fragrantica and I saw it for a decent price. I have been struggling to find places to buy perfume samples lately, so I took a gamble and bought the smallest bottle size I could. I got the 30ml bottle in the eau de parfum. The bottle is made of glass and kind of an hourglass shape, just like some of Christina’s other perfumes. It has a yellow gold flower design on the thinnest part of the bottle and Christina’s name is printed in hot pink and the perfume name printed in yellow gold. It also has yellow gold banding around the neck for the cap to sit on. The cap is clear plastic and kind of diamond shaped. It has a slight yellow gold spritzer to dispense the scent. On the outer cardboard box it had this description; “A sensual combination of golden amber and white flowers - radiating femininity the way a woman does”. The fragrance notes are:- Top Notes: Bergamot, Pink Pepper, Litchi & Pear Middle Notes: Magnol...
