Review: Love, Words & Puzzles

Today I am going to review two Impulse scents that I haven’t previously tried before. I had seen these when they first came out, but decided I wasn’t really interested in them! I happened to be shopping one day and saw them and just decided to pick them both up to try out. They also sound like they are part of the same line, so I thought it would be a good idea for me to review them in one post.
Loving Words
The can design I have is a kind of jade colour, which is the main base colour. Underneath the logo there are a lot of different coloured words making up a heart. All the permanent scents have since had their cans re-designed. This can is now white based with a jade green bottom design with lilac flowers. The new design is very girly and it is nice, but not as eye-catching as the design of the can I currently have! You get 75ml of product in the can.

The fragrance notes are:-

Violet & Raspberry

This scent smells really fruity, florally, sexy and fresh. The raspberry is definitely the dominating note. The violet does tone down the raspberry quite a bit and it is kind of woodsy. The scent makes me think of a tropical ocean. This does smell really nice and it is kind of masculine compared to Love Puzzle. This probably won’t last all day, but because it is one of the stronger scents it should stick around a while.

This is a really great scent and would definitely re-purchase it.

Love Puzzle
This can design is white based with a lot of different coloured words making up a heart shape around the logo. You get 75ml of product in the can.

The fragrance notes are:-

Top Notes: Pear, Plum, Apricot & Mango
Middle Notes: Peony, Lilac & Violet
Base Notes: Blackberry, Musk, White Amber & Sandalwood

This scent smells really fruity, florally light and fresh. I can really smell the fruit notes and the peony. It smells gorgeous! This scent probably won’t last all day, but Impulse scents in general do last quite a long time. From experience, the stronger it smells when you spray it, the longer it lasts on your skin. This has a softer scent than Loving Words and is slightly more beach and summer smelling, but they really do smell completely different!

This scent was Limited Edition for Summer 2012, so you’ll be lucky if you manage to find a can. It is definitely now one of my favourites, I’m just sad it took me so long to try it because I may not be able to re-purchase it!

Perfume Power! - Next 'Paradise'

I first smelt this perfume after receiving it in a mini gift set about ten years ago and I have loved it ever since. This 100ml size is my first bottle of it though, other than the tester/sample size. The bottle is quite tall and it is a sort of clutch bag shape if you turn it on its side. The bottle is a simple design and you can easily see how much perfume you have. On mine the spray pump sometimes gets stuck in the band around the neck of the bottle, but the problem is easily solved. I can’t find a specific note list anywhere for this perfume, but on Next’s site it is described as, "a light fruity fragrance with white florals and green notes". To me it smells really fruity and fresh. It is also multifunctional because it is quite strong and sexy, so perfect for a night out, but it is also not too overpowering and smells fresh and fruity enough for day time wear. It is actually an eau de toilette, which means that it is less concentrated, but I find that it is st...

TAG - The Good, The Bad, The British

Photo: EnchantedIvyGifts.co.uk I was browsing my subscription videos on YouTube and I saw that EssieButton uploaded a new TAG video called The British Tag, and after watching it I decided I wanted to do the TAG too. I believe this TAG was created by BeautyCrush , so all credit is awarded to her. 1. How many cups of tea do you have a day & how do you take it? I drink around three cups of tea a day and I take mine with one small sugar and a bit of semi-skimmed milk. Tea is also the only hot drink I like. 2. What is your favourite part of a Sunday roast? My favourite part of a roast is the vegetables. I love kale & leak and broccoli! My Mum’s gravy is also to die for. 3. What is your favourite dunking biscuit? I don’t dunk biscuits anymore, but when I was younger I loved dunking Bourbons. If I was to dunk a biscuit now, I would probably choose either a Rich Tea or plain Digestive. 4. What is your quintessential British pastime? I love visiting ruins/m...
