Huge Perfume Haul 2016!

You usually find there are plenty of online offers over bank holidays as you have longer to wait for your items in the post.

I picked up one of my biggest hauls of perfume ever over the bank holiday at the end of March.

I got 5 Marc Jacobs fragrances including the whole Daisy Blush collection; Daisy Blush, Daisy Eau So Fresh Blush and Daisy Dream Blush.
I also got Daisy Dream Forever which was released in 2015 and Decadence which I don't think is from the same range.

I love them all.
Decadence is a long lasting fragrance with notes of iris, amber and woods. It is quite creamy. I'm not crazy about the bottle design, but the scent is gorgeous!
Daisy Blush is a fresh, white floral scent.
Daisy Eau So Fresh Blush has quite a citrusy scent to begin with and develops quickly into a soft, sweet, floral.
Daisy Dream Blush is a soft, powdery floral scent. It has notes of violet leaf, rose and freesia.
Daisy Dream Forever is a lot sweeter and less harsh than the original Daisy Dream, which had white flowers on the bottle.

I also bought Vera Wang by Vera Wang, which I love. It is quite a mature white floral fragrance.

Jimmy Choo Illicit is such an interesting scent. To begin with it reminds me of Nina by Nina Ricci, but it is a bit deeper than Nina. It has notes of ginger, amber and honey. It is very warming.

Jimmy Choo Blossom smells like one of Escada's summer fragrances. It is sweet and has a tropical, fruity scent. In my mind the bottle design and the scent don't work well together. It is a lovely, light summer scent though.

L'Artisan Parfumeur La Chasse Aux Papillons is a light but unique floral fragrance with notes of bergamot, jasmine, orange blossom, tuberose and lime blossom.

My Latest Want List!

Here's what is top of my list of desired items at the minute.

I really love this diamond ring and I'm dying to get my hands on it.

I also tried the new Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream Forever and it is really nice. It is a lot less harsh than Daisy Dream. It is more of a fruity fragrance. The bottle is very similar to Daisy Dream, which I think is a bit annoying.

I have had my eye on this dress for over six months. It is by Quiz and it is also available from Debenhams. I'm going to a dinner next month, which this dress would be perfect for.

I also really want the Urban Decay Smoky palette. I have always thought they should do more greys in their palettes and the Smoky palette looks great. 

My final pick is the new Christian Louboutin lipsticks. There are a few different types and they come in quite a wide range of colours. They come in a presentation box. They cost £60.00 each so I would certainly want to test them out before buying one.
