FRAGRANCE: Daisy Dream Forever

Friday, 20 November 2015

Aren't perfumes just the perfect Christmas gift?! I am seriously starting to get excited about the festive season now and am working away on my gift guides for you guys! But in the mean time, check out this new Marc Jacobs perfume - the perfect gift!!

I have always been drawn to the Marc Jacobs perfumes from their bottles. They are always so pretty and girly, covered with flowers but this one here, Daisy Dream Forever is the first one I have owned and it looks perfect in my collection. It was released ealier this year in July and I love that it's a blue one, not so girly as the others but still very pretty and feminine! Adorned with frosted flowers and the chrome lid which adds a bit of sophistication.

I have read in many places that it is a deeper, more updated version of the original daisy dreams although I have not smelt that one. This new one takes inspiration from blue skies and daisies. It make me think of carefree afternoons under the sun in a field and I love that! I love the fruity notes of the scent plus its quite subtle and not overpowering! I think it's going to be a favourite!

Top Notes: Blackberry, Grapefruit, Pear
Heart Notes: Jasmine, Lychee, Blue Wisteria
Base Notes: White Woods, Musks, Coconut Water

As your reading this, I am sat at an airport with Andrew. We are off to France for the weekend with his family to celebrate his mums birthday! It's been a bit of a manic week and after deliberating on what to get her, we are all set to go! We decided on something from Buyagift (it's a great idea to check vouchacodes for things like this for great deal) so hopefully she will enjoy that when we are all back!

Anyway, on to todays post:

I only started getting into the Michael Kors hype around this time last year. I was at lakeside with my mum doing some christmas shopping when she dragged me over to the Michael Kors concession in House Of Fraser. She is literally obsessed so while she was doing her thing, I had a wander and came across a bag. It was tiny and limited edition so she talked me into getting it as my christmas present that year and I am glad she did - it is perfect.

So I've become a bit of a Michael Kors fan, it was the first designer bag that I have ever liked the look of so I was pretty excited when I was sent some perfume from the brand as I now have high expectations!

The Gold Collection was designed to reflect the opulence and luxury and was launched 19th August this year! Gold embodies the luxe glamour of the Michael Kors woman and has become a symbol of Michael’s world (I was on to something with my bag! The limited edition part was the gold edging)

There are three scents in the collection which come in sizes 30,50 and 100ml. The square bottles are sleek and sophisticated and so are the scents, they are very grown up compared to alot of the perfumes I have been reviewing lately. My favoruite is the rose gold one because it is just a little bit sweeter than the others.

WHITE LUMINOUS GOLD:

An intoxicating burst of pear, jasmine and amber in a bright and exotic signature.

24K BRILLIANT GOLD:

Shimmers with orange mandarin, voluptuous florals and a rousing spark of woodiness.

ROSE RADIANT GOLD:

Sparkling spice, textured with a charming femininity of rich florals and soft musks.

30 ml RRP £39 / 50 ml RRP £58 / 100 ml RRP £79

If you follow me on snapchat (xxgeorgina18) you might already know that my blog is going to get a little bit perfume crazy in the coming weeks! I have had so many new ones arrive in my post and of course I want to share with you guys - they are also perfect Christmas presents so its not a bad time to be talking about them!

Today, its Ari by Ariana Grande - her first fragrance which only launched last month so its super new and I really like it. This 50ml bottle is very cute and girly with rose gold details and the white pom pom attached to the lid. I love the crystal effect on the bottle giving it that old fashioned look with the rose gold for a bit of an updated feel. I also love that you can see the pink liquid through the bottle - it all adds to the girlyness.

The fragrance is announced as luscious and sexy, opening with sparkling fruity notes connected to its ultra-feminine floral heart and the base of musk, woods and marshmallow accord.

It's fruity and sugary sweet and after smelling it, having the work sparkling in the official description makes sense, I just cant describe how.

Its not too strong or overpowering, making it quite subtle which is actually lovely. Its the perfect every day scent.
