Perfect Perfumes – A photo story of my ongoing collection!

After getting ready for a night out, any girl will tell you that the only way to complete your look is with a spritz of your favourite scent. Not only can they make you feel girly and attractive, they make you smell damn fine! 😉

Over the years I’ve accumulated a variety of different bottles, which I like to wear on different occasions. Below I have pictures and a short description of each, including recommendations for who would enjoy these perfumes. Here are just a few of them:

HARAJUKU LOVERS - By Gwen Stefani

These perfumes are from the HARAJUKU LOVERS range by Gwen Stefani. They come in two different sizes, small and large (as seen above) and there are five different bottles to collect. These include “Love”, “Little Angel” (on the left in the picture), “Music”, “Baby” and “G” (on right in picture)  The plastic dolls which also act the lid, makes these perfumes unique and all have a variety of different smells. Lil Angel is more of a sweet scent whilst G has a  more mellow and coconut flavour. I personally like to wear Lil Angel during the day and G during the night and they make great presents for those wanting an unusal perfume. RRP: £20 (though I picked G up in duty free for £16)

AMOR AMOR - By Cacharel

Amor Amor is one of my favourite perfumes of all times. I personally don’t know any other perfume that smells anything like this one, with its sweet smell, boasting flavours of vanilla, jasmin and blackcurrent – which although may sound unusual – really work together. Its perfect for both day and night, and I think any occasion. Makes a good gift for a boyfriend to give to his girlfriend and the name and bottle give a romantic and sensual feel. RRP: £22.50 and comes in 30, 50 and 100ml.

VELVET HOUR - By Kate Moss

I got given Velvet Hour in a gift set for my birthday, so it came with this matching body creme that shares the same scent as the perfume. It’s perfect for moisturising arms and legs after a shower and smells great. This scent is different to the ones above in that its not as sweet and takes on a more woody and floral smell, which gives it a down to earth and casual feel. I like to wear this during the day and to more causal events as its feels more relaxed and informal. RRP: £23.50 and comes in 15, 30, 50, and 100ml

IN2U - By Calvin Klein

The IN2U bottle is unique in that it doesn’t have a lid, instead its designed with a turning base, which reveals the head of the perfume when twisted. It’s also available for men and has the same design but with a blue as opposed to yellow base. This perfume is definitely one for summer and again, one for casual occasions as again it has a light and fresh smell. Its also quite fruity yet floral, boasting flavours of pink grapfruit fizz and sugar orchid. Perfect for those who birthdays fall in the summer. RRP – £22

NINA - By Nina Ricci

Nina is another one of my favourite perfumes in that its extremley feminine scent which is again, quite sweet, yet not overbearing and has just the right tones to make it classy yet innocent. The bottle is cute, shaped like a piece of fruit ( there is supposed to be another silver leaf on the bottle but it snapped it off – perhaps a flaw of the design?!) and as its light pink colour will appeal to any girly girl. The scent itself is quite fruity as well and I like to wear it during the night and to more formal occasions. RRP: £23.50

FUEL FOR LIFE UNLIMITED - By Diesel

Fuel For Life (unlimited) is by far one of the muskiest scents I have. It has a real spice and woody smell intwined and is something I wear on formal occasions and when trying to impress (e.g job interview) as it is quite a mature and sophisticated smell. The brown bottle with gold writing reflects this feel with its 1920’s french image. I think this is good present for mums or for christmas/winter birthdays as it does feel seasonal. RRP: £29.50

I hope you have enjoyed looking at my perfume collection, maybe it will help in getting the perfect gift for that special person or perhaps just to treat yourself! 😉
