Review - Zara's budget friendly perfumes!

zara budget friendly perfume beauty
Of all the places to buy perfume from Zara was not on the top of my list, I had seen their perfumes before but never once thought to actually smell them. About a month ago a friend came over with two of the bottles and they smelt divine....then she goes - they were only a tenner! only. I had to get something for a friend for her birthday so me and my mate decided this would be perfect! At £10 we could get her a lovely bottle of perfume without blowing our entire birthday budget. 
Naturally we had to smell them all and I fell in love with this perfume, I think it's limited edition so I would absolutely recommend you get to a Zara asap. It's not an overly heavy scent and it smells like it should cost a lot more then £10. I'm trying to think of how to describe this, it's like fruity musky kinda smell.
If you can't get your hands on this smell the oriental or fruity ones as they are just as lovely, infact my other friend got the oriental so that we can do swapsies.
Which Zara scent is your favourite?

Beauty - Favourite Perfumes

Hello Everyone!
Two more days until payday! I actually cannot wait! Payday brings some exciting news: A Parklife Ticket ( I go every year - I just love it!) A weekend to Amsterdam with the work girls and a new Bike!! In two weeks time I will be leaving the ....I'm not sure if there is a word for what happens on the bus sometimes... public transport life for independence of my own vehicle again!! I shall post I pic when she arrives! Anyone got exciting spending plans?

I thought today I would feature some of my perfumes, perfumes are something that I have been obsessed with since I was 14/15 starting out with Lolita Lempika - Midnight and slowly expanding into a love of fruity/floral smells. I tend to match what perfume I'm wearing with the feel out of my outfit that day.


This is my main collection I have a couple of other old perfumes I don't really wear but these tend to make the daily wear frequently. So going in order:

March Jacobs dot: Jasmine, Vanilla, berries and driftwood. Reading this it sounds perfect, my only problem with Dot ( which I think can be said for most MJ perfumes) is the bottle. I can't take it out with me because it gets damaged. It's such a nice soft fruity scent

Dolce & Gabana Rose The One ( Front left) : considering its a rose smell, this isn't something I would usually pick out for myself, it was a christmas present from my parents and initially I didn't know how I felt about it but after a few sprays i was hooked. It is such a feminine smell goes beautifully with a red lippy, gold chain and leather jacket. I was so hooked on this I had to get a second bottle.

Dolce & Gabana: The One: This perfume isn't as lovely as Rose but holds it own with a nice oriental smell. I love wearing this with a blouse for a nice sophisticated feel.

Escada: Ocean Lounge: This has a very strong fruity smell, you can always count on Escada for a good perfume. Escada perfumes sometimes tend to be a little cheaper making them an amazing bargain price. I love wearing this to the beach, I don't know why it just has that feel to it.

Lacome - La Vie Est Belle: this is another perfume that was a gift and I probably wouldn't have smelt it if it wasn't but boy am I glad I got this, this is such a soft floral smell. I wore this to work and everyone was asking what perfume I had!! My sister loved it so much we got it as her wedding perfume! There isnt anything else to say but its THAT gorgeous.

Marc Jacobs Daisy:  I really wanted the Eau de sunshine pink daisy, but to be honest they are all gorgeous so there are no regrets ending up with this one - I have the black daisy aswell. I feel this is also a soft floral
scent perfect for woolly jumpers in winter!

Escada Rockin Rio: this was one of my first ever perfumes, its a very strong smell. gorgeous and fruity, they discontinued it for a while but thank god they brought it back!! this perfume is perfect for festivals!

Chanel - Coco Madamoiselle: This perfume is ridiculously expecsive, luckily I got hold of the tester for cheaper because I am in love with it. It is definitely a classic and worth the money. this is my go to perfume at the moment it just goes with everything!

On my perfume wishlist: Victor and rolf Flower Bomb. ( repurchase) Marc Jacobs Oh! Lola. Marc Jacobs Daisy delight and Escada Cherry in the air.

What are your favourite perfumes?
