Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey Florale - My New All-Around Perfume!

I was getting tired of my current perfume and wanted to have a new one. The scent that I was looking for was something that I could wear both for daytime and evening. I caught of whiff of it from a magazine insert of Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey Florale and I just had to have it.


It smells quite strong like alcohol at first, but once it settles on my skin, it smells really clean and fresh with light rosy fragrance. It's not overpowering and unobtrusive so it's perfect for the office or daytime wear, but sophisticated enough to transition into evening wear. Plus it lasts the whole day as well. The only downside is it's price. But I think this will be my new favorite for quite a while, so even though it's a little heavy on my budget, I'd still buy another one if I run out of it.

My verdict: Issey Miyake L'Eau D'Issey Florale perfume is a great, versatile perfume that's perfect for both daytime and evening wear. Highly recommended!

Chloe Eau de Parfum: My New Favorite All-Time Scent

I was on the lookout for a new everyday scent for sometime now. I tried different scents, but I still wasn't satisfied. I wanted a floral scent without being too sweet and cloying. Good thing that I found my match with Chloe Eau de Parfum.


The scent is a beautiful and simple scent - rose and peony with some hint of lily of the valley and honey. I wore it at a party last week and I got a lot of compliments. The good thing about it is that it can also be worn on a night out since it has a nice, sexy charm about it. My significant other loves it on me and that's another plus. Oh, and it lasts the whole day until night time. I was about to go home one evening when a co-worker said that I smell lovely and she asked what I was wearing. I couldn't believe she could still smell it!

My verdict: Chloe Eau de Parfum is a great day and night scent. Highly recommended!

Dolce & Gabbana The One Desire - My New Favorite Special Occasion Scent





I got a Dolce & Gabbana The One Desire perfume as a surprise anniversary gift from my significant other last week. One whiff of this perfume and I was hooked! I was not a fan of the original The One since it was too powdery and quite banal for my taste. This fragrance hits the nail with the hint of sweet fruitiness it adds. It has a little bit of caramel, lily, jasmine, sandalwood and lychee... Very feminine, elegant, but not overpowering. I used it during my friend's birthday party the other night and I got so many compliments on it. My significant other has quite good taste, thumbs up for his choice! :) I will definitely buy another bottle once I run out of this. 

My verdict: Dolce & Gabbana The One Desire is a great perfume for date nights and other special occasions. Highly recommended!

Stella Nude by Stella McCartney - My New Favorite Summer Scent




Went to the mall the other day in search of my summer scent. I wanted something with some floral and vanilla notes but not too sweet nor too heavy. I tried the Stella Nude by Stella McCartney after trying some other scents and I instantly fell in love with it. It opens with a subtle rose with a hint of grapefruit. It has heart notes of peony with a hint of vanilla and amber. It's a very clean, pretty and feminine scent. My only complaint is that I have to reapply it after 4 hours or so. Otherwise, I would keep on putting this on and would repurchase. If you are into feminine, floral scents that are light and not too heavy, then this perfume is for you.

My verdict: Great light floral scent for summer. Highly recommended!
