Re-do The Review; Far Away Shine edp, by Avon

  FREE YOUR EXTRAORDINARY

Light up the world with exotic Ispahan roses to make your inner sparkle your outer shine.

This oriental and gourmand scent is expertly crafted around Ispahan rose, an ancient and exotic Persian bloom used in beauty for over 2,000 years and celebrated by women as a symbol of inner illumination.

I hadn't known that a new Far Away flanker was coming until I saw it being advertised in a catalogue late last summer. The name and bright colour did strike me as odd for the time of the release. I ordered it anyway, as soon as I saw it being advertised in a Avon catalogue since there hadn't been a single Far Away flanker that I've outright disliked, however when I shared my thoughts on it I wasn't blown away by it. This was most likely because it is fragrance geared towards the spring/summer months, but it wasn't released until right before autumn. 

However now that brighter days are now finally here, I think that it's only fair that we revisit Far Away shine...

Klean girl? [reviewing XO Khloé edp, by Khloé Kardashian]

 XO KHLOÉ by KHLOÉ KARDASHIAN is an unforgettable fragrance crafted with love. 

XO Khloé is the first ever signature fragrance by Khloé Kardashian, and it perfectly captures the joyful essence of the reality and social media star and business mogul in all her glory. It Is designed to inspire positivity, confidence, and strength, encouraging a sense of warmth, peace, kindness and beauty.

I saw a post advertising this perfume last Christmas when it was exclusively launched in Harrods [17th December 2024] and the scent notes instantly interested me, but the cost put me off from blindly purchasing a bottle. In the end I decided that it would receive a wider release at some point in all likelihood, so I decided to show some patience by waiting for it to become available somewhere where I could have amble testing before deciding if I actually wanted to buy myself a bottle.

Well, that time is now; you can purchase XO Khloè from Boots, both in-store and online. Plus a 30ml bottle option is available...

Speedy Review: R.E.M. Cherry Eclipse edp, by Ariana Grande

 Irresistible. Addicting. Dreamy.  

R.E.M. Cherry Eclipse is a celebration of the rare and extraordinary, just like an eclipse. Redefine the every day and eclipse the ordinary with Ariana Grande's addicting new fragrance.

I was shocked by how poor the quality of Ariana Grande's last perfume was, so I wasn't interested in or paying attention to any news on whatever fragrance would be next - I just assumed it'd be something else from the Love Notes collection, or another Cloud flanker... 

Bam; one of my favourite perfume releases from her range has gotten a flanker. Boom; the flanker is focusing on one of my favourite fruit notes - cherry. So now I'm paying attention to the brand again. Well played Ariana, well played.
