I bought this again after being without
it for a couple of years.
The bottle design is very simple and
lovely looking. It is a twisted shape, with gold metal banding around the neck.
The cap reminds me of a sort of gold bar, but it is plastic with a tint of
colour. The bottle design is sort of oriental, which was what Hilary was going
for so it suits the scent perfectly.
The fragrance notes are:-
Top Notes: Mangosteen Fruit & Spices
Middle Notes: Cocobolo Wood & Mangosteen Flower
Base Notes: Amber Milk & Amber Musk
This fragrance is described as being
oriental and it smells really light and woody. You can smell the wood and musk,
but they are not overpowering notes and you get the slight hint of fruit and
flower. I really like this perfume and I think it is suitable for any age of
woman as it is light, fresh, clean, fruity, florally and not overpowering so it
can be universally marketed.
Sadly I have heard this perfume has
been discontinued, I’m sure you can still get hold of it from eBay, but I currently
can’t find an official stockist. Hilary is ready to make a comeback next year,
so maybe she will treat us with a perfume number three?
Hilary also has a second perfume called
Wrapped With Love, which is a take on this perfume, but inspired by the Spring
season. If you are interested in Wrapped With Love, I have heard it is harder
to get a hold of than the With Love scent, so maybe they have both been
discontinued together!
