Serial Sampler #4

I have another perfume sample for you today and it’s one I have had for a while now. It’s Valentina by Valentino and it is a 1.5ml spritzer sample of the eau de parfum. “ Valentina marks out a solar, unexpected trail, classic yet modern”.

I really like this perfume and it’s one I would consider purchasing in a full size bottle. What do you think of this perfume? ♥ ♥ ♥

You get ten full size eyeshadows (0.5oz) with matte, metallic or satin finishes and each has a cute
