Perfume Power! - Diesel 'Loverdose'

Photo: TheFragranceCounter.co.uk
I received this perfume as a Christmas present and it was part of a gift set. This is the eau de parfum version of the fragrance.

The bottle is very gorgeous indeed! The bottle is made of glass and it is heart shaped with amethyst colouring. If you look closely at the bottle you can see that the spray also acts as a sort of dagger, ‘a dagger to the heart’. Also the edges of the heart are not straight, which means the bottle can be stood three different ways, only two of the ways work for me because when it is stood on the longest edge it falls over, but once I've used more of the perfume up that might solve the problem!
The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Mandarin & Star Anise
Middle Notes: Jasmine, Gardenia & Liquorice
Base Notes: Amber, Vanilla & Wood

This perfume is described as being oriental with a liquorice heart. It is definitely more of a night time scent because it is quite strong and sexy smelling and lasts a long time on the skin. The liquorice is definitely the strongest note and sometimes I think it is too strong because I don’t like liquorice, but I do really like this scent. It reminds me of a masculine type scent but I think the star anise and the mix of floral notes make it very feminine and sort of fruity smelling.

I do not wear this perfume often, partly because I identify it as being a night time/clubbing scent and I would not get much use out of that sort of scent, but I do really like wearing it and I LOVE the bottle. Heart shaped and purple, who wouldn’t love that? J

Too Faced Love Flush Blush Wardrobe

I have had this blush palette for a long time now, but I have only recently started to use it. I know it was released last year and I believe it was limited edition, but you can still find it for sale on the Too Faced website. The packaging is long, thin and sleek. It is made out of thick cardboard and rectangular shaped. It has a pretty heart design on the front and product information printed on the back. It has a magnetic closing and when you lift the lid it reveals a small narrow mirror and the product pans. You get six 2.0g blushes in heart shaped pans. Each shade is also available in a full sized single heart shaped compact.

Natural Collection by Boots - Body Sprays

I bought these online a while ago, mainly because I was obsessed with finding an apple scented body spray and I found one from Natural Collection and then I saw two other scents I wanted to test. I got all three because they were not sold in my store and I knew they would smell nice and they can also be used as room and linen sprays. There are a total of six scents on the site at the moment. Wild Strawberry, which my sister had and we both didn’t like it because it was really strong and sickly sweet. I also tested the Ice Musk and I didn’t like it and I haven’t tried the Vanilla, but I’m not keen on vanilla scents anyway and I know I wouldn’t like it. The last one is Samphire and Sea Minerals, which I haven’t tried before, but it sounds nice and on reviews people have said it is really clean and fresh smelling, so I might have to go and have a sniff sometime. I think there are more scents, my Boots store only sell three or four and they are the scents I don’t like (Ice Musk and ...
