I have a travel of soleil Blanc, I get no coconut but I will revisit! Didn’t like vanilla vibes and need to try bronze goddess again as not tried it for years and there are new flankers out now! Is beach beach walk? Didn’t like that either! Interested in the vacation, have had a quick google and it sounds like what I’m looking for but I don’t think it’s available in the uk?

you might like bronze goddess - nuit. This makes me feel like im on holiday in a hot country and having a meal out in the evening. When its still warm but not scorching. I also think the coconut note is strong .

Got a sample of Escentric Molecules new perfume Cologne 1 ( Unisex scent , citrus notes and smells like a gin and tonic!) first time I'd ever tried Escentric Molecules scent and I was very pleasantly surprised- great scent for this time of year
sprayed some on my husband and he loves it too -smells very like Penhaligons Savoy Steam ( which has sadly been discontinued)

I have just seen an advert for Banana Rush by Juliette has a Gun - the description signs like it would be my kind of perfume and banana notes are very unusual so really curious about it. Anyone tried it? Is there any actual shops that stock JHAG perfumes as £30 for 7.5 mls is a bit steep 🙈

SOTD Kayali freedom musk Santal. Really pretty but nothing amazing. In the same category as levant or fleur Narcotique

I’ve loved most of them if I’m honest, Ormonde Jayne levant is probably my favourite followed by Dulce and Rosie by Rosie Jane.

My first one was Confessions of a Rebel Love High which I wasnt sure about at first but I have actually been wearing it most days to work. I wouldnt buy a bottle of it though. I have Nosferatu on the way which I really hope I like cos I have wanted to try it since it came out.

I got an unused 50ml bottle of Bobbi Brown Beach arrive today, was only 20 quid on Vinted. Been wanting to try it for years. I really like it, reminds me of Neroli Portofino and sunscreen.

If anyone is after a reasonably priced rose perfume Yardley Oppulent Rose is rather lovely. It's an EDT and I only had a scoosh in Boots but later it still smelled rosey.
It's sort of like wet heavy roses in a florist rather than garden on a warm day (their regular rose EDT is like that). I think I'll get it next time I'm there - about £20.

I love Yardley’s regular rose perfume too. I think they nailed a proper rose scent with that.

Broke my New Year’s resolution and bought Nest Indigo as a blind buy. It’s been on my list for aaaaaaaaages and I finally buckled. Excited to try it! Also, very surprised I lasted this long without buying anything 🤣

I got Zadig & Voltaire This Is Her! Undressed in my subscription this month; kinda reminds me of salty air at the beach. It was a random pick but I am enjoying it. Next month is Divine Couture by Jean Paul Gaultier.

SOTD Fugazzi- Angel Dust. My latest Scentbird sample. A lovely oriental, cosy yet fresh scent, and not similar to any of my other fragrances. However, it is a skin scent and while I don’t want a beast mode fragrance, I personally don’t see the point in scents that no one else can smell! This would be amazing if it had stronger projection! If anyone has suggestions for similar scents that are stronger, please let me know 😇

Have you tried Hermes Un Jardin Sur La Lagune?

It is a floral but has a salty marine note. Even though it is an edt it has quite good lasting power, and you can pick up a 50ml bottle for £40 or so.

This range has a few winners. I love Un Jardin Sur La Nil, which has a big top note of green mango. Amazing in summer. Prices have shot up though, so I haven’t repurchased.
