Cohorted February 2016 White Box


The White Box 

First off I would like to apologise for the late review of this box, this was due to my box arriving late and after many frantic emails trying to track it down it appeared at my door step this morning.

The white box is stunningly beautiful to behold with its fancy ribbon and luxurious white card, I was greeted by a spicy smell upon opening which had me worried that something had broken, but nope it hadn't, I was excited at what I was about to see and smell.

Also a little added extra I am going to be getting a mans view on the perfumes see where they stand on the subject, I can't guarantee the opinions being very detailed but he may surprise me. Im not giving him any clues, not even a name so we shall see.

I forced myself to look at the full size product last, so consequently ended up selecting products in size order so here we go.......


Chloe - 1.2ml sample

A Modern perfume that I'm sure every girl other than me in this world owns, I love it for the simple fact that it has peony listed as one of the ingredients and Peony just happens to be one of my most favourite words in the dictionary, other than that its a nice smell but not necessarily one I would purchase full size of as I prefer sweeter smelling perfumes and this one is just a little too sharp for my nose, Husbands opinion .....hmmm very oaky ...its alright  
No RRP in the book for this sample.


Estee Lauder - Intuition

I wasn't initially sure who this perfume was by so wasn't really sure what to make of it, once I looked in the book I saw Estee Lauder and got excited as I hadn't owned one from this brand previously however once I read that it was spice smelling I was not so pleased as this is really not my smell however I will try for a day see how it goes, see if I get any body notice that sort of thing, and let you know how this goes, Husbands Opinion............Its alright quite potent 
RRP £10 5ml


Jimmy Choo

A little Gem, I love love this perfume and was super happy to see this adorable little bottle in my box, I had recently reluctantly run out of this beauty and am over the moon that I now have a little bottle to tide me over until I can get to the shops :) Husbands opinion .......Rosey, he likes it reminds him of autumn. I'm proud of him for spotting the rose and he would of been in trouble if he didn't like it :) 
RRP £10 for 4.5ml 


Penhaligons  - Ostara

Serious spring time in a bottle right here, this reminded me upon smelling from the bottle of the days as a child collecting rose petals from various neighbours gardens and smashing them all together in some water ( anybody else?) then smothering myself from head to toe in said water, the nostalgia was immense, Once sprayed however it changes completely and I was hit with instant daffodils as if I literally had my head planted firmly inside one smelling its glorious smells, Nothing says spring more than the daffodils popping up to say hello, I shall be wearing my Ostara to greet them that's for sure. A beautiful smell that I am thoroughly pleased to receive as its not one I would have chosen if I was to shop myself but I am incredibly grateful to be able to wear it and encourage spring from its bed. 
Husbands Opinion lemony like soap I don't mind it maybe a bit of talc smell too.
RRP £67

Until Next time my lovelies xx
