Perfume Collection


:Apple doesn't fall far from the tree, like Mother like Daughter I am the ultimate perfume addict. Though my collection is probably a fraction of my Mother's as she has a whole cabinet full. Btw I have collected these over the years hence most are a spray away from being empty. This was not a splurge. 

Escada - Moonsparkle 
Escada - Sunset Heat
Givenchy - Very Irresistible Givenchy Summer Sun 
Givenchy - Very Irresistible Givenchy Sensual 
Givenchy - Very Irresistible Givenchy 
Ghost - Sweetheart 
Ghost - Ghost 
Cacharel - LouLou 
Armani - The Armani Code 
YSL - Elle 
Paris Hilton - Heiress 
Dior - Dior Addict Eau Sensuelle
Valentino - Rock n Rose
Carolina Herrera - 212 Fruity Splash 
Nina Ricci - Nina 
Nina Ricci - Pretty Nina 
Dior - Midnight Poison 
Dior - Tendre Poison 
Marc Jacobs - Lola 
Victoria's Secret - Angel 
Dior - Miss Dior Cherie
Fendi - Extreme
Gucci - Guilty 
Kate Moss - Lilabelle 
Dior - Miss Dior 
Cacharel - NOA 
Paris Hilton - Paris 
Thierry Mugler - Angel 

I have since calmed down with my collection as before I found my signature scent I would get bored so easily and want a new scent every month. Then I stumbled across the amazing Thierry Mugler Angel. That scent is me in a bottle. Hence why I have 2 stars. One was non refillable but when I used it up I decided to purchase the refillable star and have refilled it twice since. It actually works out cheaper too. Buy it for £65 and refill it for £40. 

My top 5 out of my entire collection not including Thierry Mugler are; 
Marc Jacobs - Lola
YSL - Elle 
Valentino - Rock' n Rose 
Fendi - Extreme 
Dior - Miss Dior

Smells like Spring - Top 5 Perfumes

So when it comes to perfumes I am a bit of junkie. They say the average women owes about 2, and I thought having around 30 in my collection was still small. I think I get it from my Mum. Even though I do have my signature scent which is Thierry Mugler Angel because it is the most amazing smell in the world and I understand why they make refillable bottles as I just can't get enough of the stuff, I do love testing out new smells as I just get bored. Also as a perfume junkie I believe it is important to switch it up during the year because every season has its own scents just like every season has its own colour palettes. Summer is all about super sweet and fruity smells, Autumn is all about the spicy smells, Winter is all about the musky smells and Spring is all about the fresh and floral smells. As Spring is only around the corner I will be switching to my all time favourite scents of Spring. 




Marc Jacobs Lola. Lets Just take a moment to talk about how amazing the bottle is. I've always loved Marc Jacobs packaging they never fail to disappoint. Tres chic. Anyhow not the best at describing scents here but imagine you've just picked a bouquet of fresh flowers of stepped into a field of daffodils on a warm Spring day. This is what this scent reminds me of. I like going on fragrantica.com as it deconstructs perfumes into top notes, middle notes and base notes. According to fragrantica Lola includes pink pepper, pear, ruby red grapefruit, peony, rose, geranium, vanilla, creamy musk and tonka. 




Miss Dior is definitely more Spring appropriate then Miss Dior Cherie which is more suitable for the Summer as it is fruitier and sweeter. Miss Dior is perfect for the Spring. A fresh cosy floral scent. Top notes are aldehydes, gardenia, galbanum, clary sage and bergamot; middle notes are carnation, iris, orris root, jasmine, neroli, lily-of-the-valley, rose and narcissus; base notes are labdanum, leather, sandalwood, amber, patchouli, oakmoss and vetiver.




Calvin Klein Euphoria. I think the name speaks for itself. The main notes are rose hip, Japanese apple, green leaves, Lotus, black orchid, red woods, black violet and amber. 




Gucci Guilty is a very light and feminine fragrance but equally empowering as its got the perfect combination between floral and fruit it transports you to a different realm. Gucci Guilty contains the notes of mandarin, pink pepper, peach, lilac, geranium, amber and patchouli.



Elie Saab screams feminine scent. Its quite strong, a little overpowering rather then light and fresh like a typical spring scent. Its the fact that its purely jasmine based that separates it from the Summer scents and keeps it Spring. Similar to Thierry Mugler Alien which is just as strong but subtler when it comes to the jasmine. The perfume opens with notes of orange blossom. Jasmine is in the heart, including both Grandiflorum and Sambac, whereas the base consists of cedar, patchouli and rose honey accord.


My Top 5 perfumes, beautiful scents perfect for the Spring months worth checking out. You can definitely get high off these perfumes as thats how amazing they smell you won't be able to stop sniffing. 

other spring scents i'd recommend are; 

Nina Ricci - Nina 
Cacharel - Amor Amor 
Chanel - Coco Mademoiselle 
Viktor and Rolf - Flowerbomb 
Jimmy Choo - Jimmy Choo
