Third time around ...

Hey guys,

I'm back for a third time, and determined to stay!

Today, I bring to you a product review. The new Balenciaga 'B' perfume.

So initially, I went out to buy my favourite winter perfume Roberto Cavalli Eau De Parfum. This fragrance is quite deep, mysterious, warm and sexy... Perfect for winter. Apparently its a summer/floral scent, not too sure I agree. What I love about the Roberto Cavalli perfume is that you a laced in the scent ALL DAY!




Now the new Balenciaga perfume is the complete opposite in terms of scent. It is a more sophisticated scent, definitely a daytime fragrance. 'B' is a floral scent yet very woodsy with a hint of pepper/spice. My 3 favourite attributes in a fragrance. As expected from any well made Eau De Parfum, the scent lingers on  the skin for hours - at least 6 from my observations.



The packaging is sophisticated, simple and elegant just like the scent. The monochrome box is minimalist yet on trend and classic. The bottle is easy to grip and feels comfortable in the hand.

I purchased in John Lewis Oxford Street, where they had 2 promotions on. They had 10% off on beauty ... bargain! They also has a nail artist from O.P.I on deck offering free manicures with any Balenciaga purchase. There were 3 designs to choose from. 2 Monochrome styles and the style I have pictured above. All designs are in the style of the packaging/fragrance.

All in all, I am loving the scent its clean and simple, perfect for these chilly winter days! The free manicure was a lovely little extra.

I've got lots of ammo for blogging, so expect to see lots of posts from me in the coming weeks! I can't  wait to get back in the swing of things.

Ill be back soon xx
