Goutal Eau de Sud Review
[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] I’m going back a bit in time here and expecting many to already know this fragrance, but it’s my first time with Goutal Eau de Sud which launched in…
Jo Malone London Red Hibiscus Cologne Intense Review
[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] I said it was a fragrance heavy week, and by the looks of things, next week will be too because there are some great launches and new-to-me products to…
Tom Ford Lost Cherry Candle
[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] You know when a fragrance just gets you? I smelled this maybe two years ago and have never, ever forgotten it. It laid such a strong olfactory impression that…
Loewe Fragrance Botanical Rainbow
[unpaid/sample] This is a fragrance heavy week one way and another and I’m kicking off with the new collection of fragrances from Loewe and the Botanical Rainbow campaign. I’m not…
Sainsburys Candle Review
Given that a dash to Sainsburys or Tesco is now the highlight of my week (occasionally I will walk to my nearest M&S) I’m paying a bit more attention to…
Jo Loves Fragrance Sampler Set
[unpaid/affiliate/ad] I literally only spotted this a few minutes ago but I’ve got straight onto the blog with it because I know how much we are enjoying fragrance at the…
L’Occitane Rose Calisson Fragrance

Diptyque Baies Candle Limited Edition
[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] If you don’t know the Baies scent, it’s a rosy, fruity, green affair that gives generously on fragrance – my kitchen yesterday was a joy to be in. The…
CHANEL Le Lion
[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] Being honest, at first I didn’t think I liked the new fragrance from Chanel. Le Lion is very resinous – it’s got that antique wood kind of note that…
Jo Malone London Scarlet Poppy Cologne Intense Review
[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] When Scarlet Poppy arrived, I wondered how the smell of poppy would be interpreted because even the best noses in the world have trouble pinning down exactly what poppies…
Versace Dylan Turquoise EDT
[unpaid/sample] Oh my – the absolute excess of this is something of a thrill. I love colour in a world of neutral beauty packaging and this has it over and…
Escentual Perfume Discovery Set – With A Twist!
[unpaid/affiliate/ad] So – this is a discovery! And, something I think you’ll really like because it’s different from your usual discovery sets. It’s an absolute genius idea – particularly at…
Bahoma London Grapefruit & Lime Candle (and some bargains!)
[affiliate/ad] A while ago I posted wondering why there were no specific new year candles (it turned out that there are one or two) when our scent desires change so…
Crabtree & Evelyn Raw Instinct Candle
[unpaid/sample/affiliate/ad] So, I have questions! Why does the candle say Crabtree on it, when the lid says Crabree & Evelyn and it’s actually called Raw Instinct? I actually don’t really…
