Have Fun Every Day with Desigual Perfume*

My favourite thing about trying new perfumes is the bottle design. I am drawn to testers with nice looking bottles and when I was given the chance to try Fun by Desigual I knew this was a bottle I would have definitely picked up.


Desigual, the fastest growing, worldwide fashion brand have just launched three new long awaited fragrances, Sex, Love and Fun and I received 50ml of the Fun fragrance.


The design is exactly what it says on the packaging..Fun! The circle shaped bottle is brightly designed with a rainbow of colours and a funky vintage style matching cap. "Have fun everyday" has been printed onto the sides of the bottle and it makes me smile every time I pick this up. The other fragrances also have this quote on the side matching their respective names.


Fun is cheerful, fruity and light. The fragrance is long lasting and I received many compliments wearing this. The predominant notes are blueberries, nashi pear and white peach with background notes of passionfruit, violet and peony. The base notes sandalwood and bright teak. The scent was created by Christoph Raynaud who has also made fragrances for Paco Rabanne.



The new Desigual Sex, Love and Fun fragrances are available at The Fragrance Shop.

So...? London*

I've always been a lover of the So...? Body sprays so when I was contacted about trying the new fragrance range, I couldn't wait to receive my item. The So...? range was well loved by me and all of my friends back when we were teenagers and I have continued to buy body sprays from the range ever since, they almost feel nostalgic.

I received the So..? London fragrance which is a solid favourite of mine having tried all of the other couture scents in various stores. The scent is really unique to any other perfume I have used before and is fun and refreshing.


The perfume starts of smelling quite fruity and slowly fades throughout the day to a sweet scent.

The website describes the top notes of this scent as grapefruit, mandarin and apricot. The heart notes are jasmine, rose and violet and the base notes are described as sandalwood, vanilla and musk. The vanilla scent is definitely something that lingers on your skin throughout the day and I really like that.


The bottle design is simple but sleek, and I really love the outer packaging, it instantly catches my eye. I love that it is ombréd too, it has a very modern feel.


These perfumes are really affordable and have a long lasting scent so you really get your money's worth. They're a great addition to have in your handbag and it's nice to keep topping up your scent while you're out and about.

The So...? perfumes are available in many supermarkets and drugstores here in the UK, but for a full list, head over to their website. The 50ml Eau de toilette is just £9.99.
