Perfume Lust

I've been lusting after Marc Jacobs' Daisy ever since I set nose on it at Myer a few weeks ago. Yet at AUD80 for 50ml and AUD110 for 100ml, I can't seem to part with my cash for the perfume. The husband suggested that I go to Myer every week and spray myself with the tester perfume just to satisfy myself, or to sneak in an atomiser to *ahem* sneak *ahem* some back home. That man. Tsk tsk.

So what I've been doing is spraying the perfume onto those perfume cards and storing the scented cards in my purse, just to satisfy that itch. Tell me if that's not sad, because it is.

And if that's not bad enough, I was simply checking out the perfumes on sale at David Jones yesterday, and since I was at the Estee Lauder counter, I thought I'd try out Estee Lauder's Pure White Linen Light Breeze.

Big. Mistake.

It smells absolutely heavenly. It's AUD95 for 50ml and AUD135 for 100ml. I want this. Real bad.
What is it with all this sudden lust for perfumes?! ARGH!

Review: L'occitane Cherry Blossom Solid Perfume

L'occitane came up with their Cherry Blossom range a few months ago, and I have to say, I was quite hooked. I recently bought the Cherry Blossom Solid Perfume; a first in the solid perfume range for me anyway.

Loccitane Cherry Blossom Solid Perfume

To be honest, from the photographs I see in magazines regarding the product, I was expecting a bigger tub of perfume. I was a tad disappointed that the container was actually rather small (only 10ml; pretty much the size of a lipbalm). Still, the fragrance was lovely; it's very soft and delicate. It's rather light though; multiple touch-ups during the day would be necessary to ensure a lasting scent. It's alcohol-free too.

I reckon that's where the size of the solid perfume comes in. It's very handy, which you can bring with you in your purse during the day and night.

It retails at RM41 for 10ml at all L'occitane outlets.

What I like about it: Lovely, delicate scent; easy to carry

What I did not like about it: Multiple application is needed as the scent wears off after 2 hours.
