Victoria's Secret Forever Sexy 7ml Rollerball:
This fragrance confuses me so much. I don't love it but I don't entirely dislike it either. I don't know if my nose and body chemistry are very off when it comes to this fragrance, but I don't find it sexy/sensual at all, and I don't get most of the fragrance notes from it that are listed. The notes are described as " juicy fruity flavors of Belladonna orange, with creamy gardenia petals leaving a solar effect, while sensual warmth originates from golden amber." To me, gardenia is the only note described that I even remotely get from this fragrance. It is not a warm, sensual fragrance to me at all. It opens with a sharp blast of alcohol that quickly fades to a cool, aquatic, ozone-y floral. It is a very fresh and minimalistic scent to me for about the first hour or so, and lingered for four or so more hours as a dull, one note ozone type fragrance that was almost industrial. While I didn't find it repellent, it was very flat and uninspired to me, definitely not my fragrance style. I'm glad I received it for free from a promotion, because I would not have wanted to spend money on it.
Have you tried this fragrance? What were your thoughts? Have you ever sniffed a fragrance that did not match its description to you?
VS Pink Coconut Milk & Pineapple Body Mist 2.5 oz:
I am really liking this fragrance. It is a surprisingly non-juvenile blend of fresh, unsweetened coconut milk and tart pineapple. I do love sweet fragraces, but this is surprisingly less sweet than I thought it would be. It is fresh, tropical and bright, with a punch of tart pineapple and a creaminess from the coconut with just a hint of sweetness. Like most body mists, the fragrance only lasts about 15-20 minutes, but it would be a great scent to toss in a beach bag and reapply all day. I also find myself spraying it on constantly around the house. A fun and fresh summer fragrance.
Nest Citrine 3ml Rollerball EDP:
Citruses and florals can be hit or miss for me, but this is a lovely bright and cheerful scent. I get opening notes of tart and slightly sweet lemon and orange with undertones of light, fresh florals. It is a really pretty citrus floral for spring, although the longevity is only about 2 hours on me. I adore the beautiful packaging of this fragrance too. I like that I was able to spray and test this fragrance at Sephora before redeeming the free sample. It did not disappoint.
