Jimmy Chooooooooooo(n)’s Exotic is something quite extraordinary…

Imagine Jimi Hendrix and imagine a perfume. Put them together and what do you get? Jimmy Choo (probably).

Putting the BAE in BASS since I don’t even know when… 

If you want to smell like you’ve been frolicking in the Caribbean, this is definitely for you. Everyone loves a good Mango, don’t they? This one smells like that, pretty much…

For me, it’s the fact that it’s a strong fruity scent that reminds me of summer in a hot country that makes me like it more than someone who migh not likely be a fan. Obvs.

The packaging is a cute spherical bottle that is burnt orange in colour. You can see Jimmy Choo’s name engraved on it too.

Today is the first day of Spring and National Fragrance Day, so why not spray some Jimmy Choo Exotic on? It’ll bring Summer round faster…

This fragrance’s top notes are are blackcurrant and grapefruit. The middle notes are passion flower and orchid, with the BAEse notes being patchouli and raspberry.

Ladies, your fragrance ain’t got a PATCH(ouli) on this! 😉

Viktor & Rolf‘s BonBon … (or as I like to call it: “Boom Boom”)!

If you’d like to know what I’ve smelt like for two whole years then look no further than this… Side note: you’re also a tad strange, if so! Don’t worry, I’m pretty sure I’ve wondered what you smell like too… 😂

Anyway, it’s so sweet and sticks to me like superglue. If I spray some on Monday, I can still smell it on my clothes by Wednesday. What happens on Thursday? I spray it again and smell it until Sunday. #7Days #CraigDavid #ReReWind #TheCrowdSayBonBonSelecta (it from John Lewis, Boots or The Perfume Shop).

That, right there, is the sign of a good perfume.

A timeless sensation pure and absolute pleasure. For women who create their own story.

Caramel characterizes the scent’s evolution, from inception to completion, the caramel notes mature from a sharp, edible top note to softer and milkier in the middle then darkening to add depth to the base note of amber, all surrounded by heart notes are of orange blossom and jasmine.

What is Viktor & Rolf’s BonBon shaped like? A beautiful pinky-purple bow.

How much does it cost? £40-something, but the fact that it’s a very strong scent means you only need to spray it once.

My stunningly-amazing mother (JHEEZE! The word “Mother” sounds a little too strong for this post… #Mummy #Motherbear #Momstar #Momski #Momitis 😂) bought it for me in 2014 and I’ve still got it (and it’s half-full) almost three years on!

Yeah, so, Viktor & Rolf, buy into it. #BonBon #SweetLikeBonBon #BonBonBonIWantYouInMyRoom #BonBonBonding

Lush’s Lust

You all know that once I start talking about Lush, I never stop. It’s as though I don’t have a filter…

Anyway, this post is slightly different to my usual Lush posts because I’ll be discussing something which not many people write about –  the fragrance line: ‘Greatest Hits’ – Lust in particular.
