Embracing the new... [reviewing Eve Embrace edp, by Avon]

Discover the radiance in every layer of who you are with the floral, woody and musk perfume of Eve Embrace EDP.  

Embrace all that you are in every way with vivacious violet petals, breath-taking rose and delectable white caramel musk.

 

Today I want to take a deep dive into the latest perfume release by actress Eva Mendes [in her Eve Discovery line] with Avon - Eve Embrace. 

I read about this online a few months ago (I can't remember where I read the article) and had been looking forward to the UK launch of it ever since; I usually really enjoy fragrances with any combination of raspberry, strawberry, rose, violet, iris and/or caramel in them. Eve Embrace contains all six of these scent notes. Not only do the key scent notes appeal to me, but Avon has been impressing me with the overall quality of their fragrances over the last year or so = my expectations are high for this fragrance.

Has this fragrance lived up to the hype that I'd built in my own mind?

Believe in freedom [reviewing Believe edp, by Britney Spears].brand

The greatest freedom is to believe in yourself

... and the Britney fragrance train continues.

I went on Amazon as I've finished my bottle of Fantasy Intimate and wanted to replace it, but I saw a old favourite from the Britney brand that is completely unrelated to the Fantasy or Prerogative lines, so couldn't resist getting it for the new spring season. 

Let's go back to 2007 nod get introduced to Believe again...

The Prerogative line has a huge Ego... [reviewing Prerogative Ego edp, by Britney Spears]

Prerogative Ego, the new bold and tantalizing unisex fragrance. This iridescent sparkling fragrance blooms with a warm floral bouquet providing a lush, lavish texture. Sun-soaked woods and sensual ambers envelope your skin in a soft, irresistible glow. 

Play it your way and break the rules. Choose your side, then change your mind. Follow your instinct. Prerogative Ego, the fragrance with no boundaries. 

What’s your Prerogative?

I'm keeping the Britney Spears fragrance train going a bit longer, as I recently stumbled across a 2020 flanker release from the brand that I'd not heard of before; so clearly I had to buy it to see what is going on with the Prerogative line.

Today I'm looking at Prerogative Ego

Wishing Fantasy a happy fifteenth birthday [reviewing Fantasy Intense edp, by Britney Spears].

 A unique interpretation of the iconic Fantasy fragrance that elicits sweet temptation and leaves an unforgettable and lasting impression.

Alluring and addictive at its core, Fantasy Intense introduces a new amplified, captivating signature with intoxicating notes. 

Sensual, yet playfully sweet, this seductive scent leaves a tantalizing trail that lingers to entice.

I should have realized that a new Fantasy flanker was coming  for the original's 15th birthday, when I saw that Festive Fantasy had been reduced in price a few weeks  ago, but this has caught me by surprise - her fragrance team haven't officially announced it yet, but the Superdrug site has begun to sell it anyway. 

I've got my fingers crossed that this will be a slightly tweaked version of the original; I want the whimsical & playful sweetness and warmth of Fantasy, but am hoping that this will introduce a 'older' depth and authoritative stamp. Britney & the original fans of Fantasy have grown up, so I'm excited to see if the perfume has grown up too...

It's a month closer to Christmas, let's get festive... [reviewing Festive Fantasy edt, by Britney Spears]

Opulent. Vibrant. Hypnotic.

Live to celebrate life! Enjoy the simple pleasures of every new day, as they encapsulate you into opulent color, dreams and delight. 

Jubilance and vibrancy will be your addictive signature. Festive fantasy, the new enchanting fragrance... 

 

I'm either late for last Christmas or early for Christmas 2021, but now that last year's flanker of Fantasy - Festive Fantasy - has been lowered in price, I want to take a closer look at it. 

Is it a great bargain, or something to skip past?
