Smell me... All about perfumes and me!

At the moment I have quit an extensive perfume collection.
I love perfumes.
I like trying new ones, finding new favourites and rediscovering old ones.



I want to share my collection with you, but I'm crap at explaining scents!
So instead I will show my collection and tell you about my favourites, the ones I have brought more than once and the ones I won't be repurchasing etc.


I have changed my taste in perfume a lot over the years.
For a long time I loved very fresh citrus scents.
But actually these scents didn't go very well with my natural scent and also when they had actually citrus oil in them, they gave me an allergic reaction.

So now I much more for the floral deeper scents.
And I love anything that reminds me of candy!


My collection includes:

1. Victor & Rolf Flowerbomb
2. Burberry Beat
3. Chloé Chloé
4. Jean Paul Gualtier Madame
5. Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey
5. Gucci Flora
6. Miss Sixty Miss Sixty
7. Paco Rabanne Ultra Violet
8. Diesel Loverdose

So I'm going to put them in to different categories.
(if you want to know more about the actually scent, then go to Google:-))

The reruns:

Victor & Rolf Flowerbomb - This is the third time I got it, and I still love it.
I actually didn't like it at first, because I had smelled it on some one else, and it was not good.
But then one day I tried it on myself, and loved it.
So it's definitely one of those scents you have to try a few time one yourself, before buying it!

Paco Rabanne Ultra Violet - It's also the third time, I have this one.
But the last one I had scattered on the floor in a Bank in India, so it doesn't really counts, and I was missing it so much, so I had to get it again.

Jean Paul Gualtier Madame - I actually wasn't planing on getting this one again, because the first time I had a 100 ml, and got quit tired of it.
But then I found it on sale at a very good price, and I always get so many compliments, when I wear it.

Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey - I can't count how many times, I have had this one.
It has always been in my collection!
Very popular with the men:-)

The new one:

Chloé Chloé - This one also found on sale.
It's not a scent I would normally go for, but I really like it for every day use.

The ones I will not be repurchasing:

Gucci Flora - I like it, but I don't love it.
It's probably the perfume I use the least.

Burberry Beat - This is also a scent, that's very different from what I normally go for.
But tested a few times, and just loved it!
But now I have tried it, and it's not one, that I can't live without.

The odd one:

Miss Sixty Miss Sixty - I would never have thought, that this would be a perfume for me.
But it have this candy scent I really like.
Actually think it has been discontinued, because it was very cheap!

The favourites/the ones I will definitely be repurchasing:

Diesel Loverdose - This is The Candy perfume.
I got last winter, and it was love a first sniff.
And then the bottle is just to die for!

Victor & Rolf Flowerbomb

Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey

My wish list:

I have a few perfumes I would like to try

Elie Saab Le Perfume - I got a small sample of this one last year, when I was in London, and I have been wanting it every since.
It will be my next perfume buy.

Dior J'Adore - The classic, that I can't believe I've never owned.

Narciso Rodriguez for her - I always try this one, when I'm in a department store, and some day soon I have to get it home with me.

So I hope you enjoyed this one.
But remember perfume is a very personal thing, so always try them on yourself, and preferably more than once :-)
