Firstly I have to talk about the gorgeous bottle! I really love the ombre colours and the lid really reminds me of all the old perfumes that my Nan has lined up on her dressing table, all with very similar lids. This is the 30ml size which is plenty big enough but also small enough to carry around in your handbag.
My first impressions of the actual scent itself was that I couldn't quite decide whether it was a sweet scent or something a little spicier, this was until I read a bit more about it and found out that it actually contains both scents. It has top notes of mandarin, bergamot and red berries but also there is the surprising shot of spice that comes from the pimento berries. I have to say I think they've really got the scent bang on right, the mixture of everything blends together so nicely and it isn't overpowering at all. Vanilla is one of the base scents which I think is what makes this so easy to wear without it being too strong, it's a powerful scent but a delicate one at the same time. I have to say I really haven't missed my old favourites whilst I've been wearing this and I've had so many compliments since!
This 30ml size usually costs £28 from Boots but it's currently on offer for only £22.40! If you're looking for a new perfume to start off your 2016 then I'd definitely recommend popping in-store and giving this a smell.
I had no idea they had a perfume either but that bottle!! I might have to try get my hands on this! Xx

Isn't it stunning! It really is a beautiful scent and not badly priced with that offer on at the moment as well! xx
DeleteOh I like the sound of this! I'll most definitely give it a go when I'm running low on my current perfume, the price is not too shabby at all :) Fab review!
