Body - Fragrance Dior Review: Bath / Body

Review: Dior Addict Eau Fraîche Relaunched

Dior recently repackaged and relaunched their iconic fragrance; the Dior Addict family namely Dior Addict Eau de Parfum, Dior Addict Eau Fraîche and Dior Addict Eau Sensuelle. The one I have and going to review is Dior Addict Eau Fraîche which comes in a pink bottle.

 

Dior Addict Eau Fraîche is a floral fruity fragrance which is portrayed as a fresh, elegant, bright, woody scent. Top notes are bergamot and grapefruit, Middle notes are lotus, freesia and pomegranate and Base notes are musk and woodsy notes. When I first read about the scent description I was a bit skeptical as I’m not really into fruity scent. But that was quickly changed when I saw the ingredient list. It’s mainly consist of floral, not much on fruity. Good news for me 🙂

Let’s talk about the bottle. I believe a lot of us collect perfume and the first thing that caught my attention is definitely the bottle. I like the simplicity of the bottle design and love the fading pink glass bottle. It’s a user friendly perfume and I’ll tell you why below. I have to be extra careful when handling this perfume. It’s heavy, made from glass and I wouldn’t wanna drop my current favorite perfume to the floor!

Body - Fragrance Jimmy Choo Review: Bath / Body

Review: Jimmy Choo Eau De Parfum

Sometime early March I purchased 3 copies of Malaysia Tatler with Jimmy Choo EDT and EDP 4.5ml miniature freebies. Read here. Each magazine comes with 2 miniature and I ended up with 6 bottles! With that lot on hand I’ve been using EDP everyday for the past 1 month. There’s a reason why I choose EDP because of all 6 bottles there’s this bottle with visible lesser content and it’s an EDP!

All I can say is I love this fragrance!

Jimmy Choo Parfum expresses an aura of strength and beauty and has a dazzling aura of glittering femininity.

Glamorous in attitude, confident, intelligent and with a sense of fashion and fun, the fragrance is a modern Fruity Chypre with warm, rich, woody depths. It’s a fragrance inspired by modern women – strong, empowered, beautiful, seductive and alluring with a hidden and mysterious sense of confident sexuality.

Scent description:-
Imagine femininity, luxury and style…bottled. Introducing Jimmy Choo, the fragrance. A modern fruity chypre with warm, rich, woody depths. With luminous green top notes, an aura of rich exotic Tiger Orchid and base notes of sweet toffee meld with Indonisian patchouli.

If you are into womanly scent, this is the one for you. It’s not too loud and not too sheer. This fragrance tones down to a soft floral fruity scent. I’m not into fruity perfume but this doesn’t irritate me at all. I feel luxurious dabbing this onto my wrist. One dab in the morning lasts me till night. Which is also another reason why I love this so much. This fragrance doesn’t give me headache at all.

As mine is a miniature it doesn’t comes with a spray. The opening is secured and stuffed with a plastic stopper. Although the bottle is made from glass (another plus point) I was unable to carry this in my handbag as dabbing on the go is kinda troublesome. But that wasn’t my concern as I’ll post up a tips at the end of the week on a simple solution for miniature perfume.

The fragrance note for Jimmy Choo EDP is as below:

Heart notes: Tiger Orchard
Top notes: Pear Nectar, Sweet Italian Orange
Base notes: Toffee, Indonesian Patchouli
