Hey Beauties!

How was your Easter? If you follow me on Instagram, I posted a big basket that I got and it was full of chocolates. I think that this has become the main purpose of Easter for me.. new stash of chocolates - oh yeah! :)) I have also been hitting the gym, or fitness rather, and this Easter thingy is killing my routine of avoiding chocolate. I have a big weakness for chocolate, well actually anything sweet, to be completely honest. Enough said. Today's review is of Beckham perfume, which I actually got as a gift.

It's a 15 ml Eau de toilette. The bottle is so cute, because it's so small. I love the engraved Beckham sign at the top of the bottle. Classy in my opinion. I wish I would have a sign like that. It comes in a pink box. I don't know the price, but my guess is around 15 €.

The perfume is slightly pink colored. Even though it is a toilette, it's pretty strong in my opinion and it lasts a long time on me. The smell to me is very floral and somewhat classy. It's not overbearing sweet, but just enough. Since I am bad at explaining the smells, let's see the notes.

Top notes: Bergamot, White Flowers, Rose.

Middle notes: Orange Blossom, Tuberose, Casablanca Lily.

Base notes: Vanilla, Musk, Sandalwood.

It's not my typical smell, because I do love very sweet perfumes. I think I like this one, because it's a lot more sophisticated smell. It starts very floral, but then after a while it gets my kind of sweet smell. The base notes are very typically sweet my-kind-of notes :). I wouldn't normally notice Beckham perfume, because it's not my kind of style, but I got this perfume as a gift and was surprised by how much I liked it. Ever since I got it, I use it every day. Now I'm afraid that I'll run out of it and miss it :). 

Did you try any of the Beckham perfumes and how do you like them?

Hey Beauties!

It's been so long since I bought any new perfumes. The reason being, I believe I have too many, as it is. Do you have a lot of perfumes as well? But this smelly thing, was on my wish list since I tested it in the Avon catalog and then once, I just bought it. In general, I really like Avon perfumes, especially because they have amazing sizes (mostly 50 ml of product) for very reasonable prices. 

The perfume I bought is called City Rush. In my opinion it's the perfect spring perfume, because it has quite strong, yet fresh smell. It's of course more on the stronger and sweeter side, like all my perfumes. For some this wouldn't pass as a day smell, but for me it does.

Top notes: Ivy, Bergamot and Plum

Middle notes: Vanilla Orchid, Rose and Dahlia

Base notes: Musk, Patchouli and Woody Notes

It starts very fresh and later becomes pretty strong woody smell. I like the fact that I can smell some sweetness as well as the woody muskiness in it. Pretty strong as far as the formulations goes. If you don't like strong smells, this is not for you. On me it's very long lasting, but then again, most of the perfumes are. This really depends on your skin. 

The bottle is nice, very sturdy. Perfume looks a bit yellow in the bottle and the graphic on it is gold. Definitely  looks nice on any shelf. 

The perfume contains 50 ml of product and the price varies, like do all the prices in Avon. I bought it for 17 € and I think the full price is 30 €. 

I would recommend this smell to anyone who likes very strong, a bit more sophisticated smells, with a very strong woody note to it.
