few and scammed myself a few samples as well! :)
Dawn
This comes in a nice looking bottle with a light blue design. However on closer inspection the lid is a little cheap looking and obviously plastic. However I don’t like to criticise looks that much for
something that is bought for fragrance ... but appearances help too!
The official description is:
Top Notes: Citrus cocktail, violet leaves, angelica
Middle Notes: Bouquet of exotic orchids
Bottom Notes: Tahitian vanilla, translucent musks
What I noticed was that it was a light floral scent as you would imagine form the description and no fruity smells which is good as that would ruin the purpose of this perfume I feel.
The scent was fresh and light as I mentioned and I found it lingered for a long time which I found to be great as some wear off too soon.
Not my favourite but definitely a good perfume to wear for relaxed and lazy outings perhaps :)
I give it 3.4/5 and not too expensive.
It is well priced on Scentiments here
But at the time of writing this Amazon had it cheaper here
Covet
This one came with a lot of recommendations to me from some friends and the girls at the store. I HATE the bottle though, it looks like a tap!
Launched by the design house of Sarah Jessica Parker in 2007, COVET is a women's fragrance that possesses a blend of Geranium leaves, Lemon, Honeysuckle, Chocolate, Lavender, Lemon, Amber, Musk, Teakwood
Chocolate, lemon, honeysuckle ... this looked interesting but I was a bit confused as to how this would all hang together as they scents seemed a bit too disparate for a good fragrance but I was impressed enough with Dawn to give this a go.
As you can imagine this is a complex perfume but it does not offend in the slightest as it is still very fresh. At first you get a good smell of lavender but the initial scent eventually mellows to let loose the chocolate and lemon fragrances as well.
This is a classy perfume and quite a romantic one ... or so says my man ;) It can be worn for many an occasion but I like to wear it for special occasions and not as a daily scent.
I give it a 4/5 and I think many women will like it more than I do in fact
Amazon has it extremely cheaply here at the time of writing.
However Scentiments is close to matching it here but is a little more expensive
