Whether you are pampering yourself for a hot date or just to give yourself a little bit of self-loving this Valentine’s Day, there is nothing quite like finding a new brand to fall head over heals in love with to make you feel better! Something I experienced when I discovered the Manchester based company Scented Aromas! Find out all about them right here!
What makes a perfume wonderful? Is it the bottle? The smell? The memories? Well, for me it is all of those elements, plus so much more! I love the way that a perfume can make you feel incredible things! The way it can make you feel better! Something the amazing, Narcotic Delight by INITIO, did! Honestly, it is a really life changing scent!
Summer is the perfect time to find a new scent! One with true star quality. And thankfully Amazon have created a new Star Store that features some of the best perfume deals around to help us find the one that will help us remember the summer of 2023 with ease!
I love buying a new perfume each year, often the DKNY themed apple one. Yet, this year I may just have to go for five, because the Star Store has some great finds. These are my top five deals that I have spotted so far…
Calvin Klein Euphoria for Women, £35.99: I’ve used this perfume before and was devastated when the bottle came to an end. Thankfully, with this bargain of a price, I may just replenish my stock.
Boss Femme Eau de Parfum, £30: Hugo Boss perfumes last for ages on your skin! This subtle but effective scent lasts all day, to the point I could still smell it when I went to bed when I used a tester recently. Having been looking for a good price, this is definitely a fab deal.
Lady Million Lucky by Paco Rabanne, £46.25: I adore, I mean ADORE, Paco Rabanne’s perfume range. One Christmas I even begged for Lady Million. Luckily my mum listened and I’ve never looked back since. Lady Million Lucky is a sweeter scent that is perfect for when you are going out for that special occasion.
Juicy Couture Viva La Juicy Petals Please Eau de Parfum, £35.98: If like me you love a sweet smell than this is the one. With floral notes, which aren’t to strong, this is sweet enough to remind me of an ice lolly enjoyed on a beach.
Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Dew Eau de Parfum, £47: Lighter than the other Flowerbomb’s, wearing this is like going for a walk in a beautiful meadow. It’s divine on the skin and lasts ages.
For me, I love a scent that is fruity but strong. If I can smell it throughout the day it makes it so much better. Especially if it is a tropical scent. Give me a hint of coconut and I am your girl. Using the Amazon Star Store is so helpful and a true blessing at saving money. The promotions also change quite a lot, so you get good bargains all the time. Check it out if you can lovelies. The real scent of summer is upon us!

Many of you will know by now that I am a sucker for a candle. Whether they are big or small, they will be lit all year round in my house. From fruity summer fragrances to cosy spiced winter finds, I adore them. So, when I discover new brands I have to have a try. To let you all know about them to of course!
Creating gorgeously stylish planet friendly candles, soaps and diffusers, all of which available in beautiful gift sets, Quiet Blue are a brand hoping to change the impact we are making on the planet.
Created with ethically sourced soy wax, they team sent me some gorgeous scents to try. Including a wonderful box set of three scented candles, all a rich mix of smells, as well as a wonderful choice of two soaps and a beautiful diffuser. All gifted to me in a wonderful hamper box.
Starting out with the candles, instantly you could smell the wonders of them. Sliding across the white packaging of the three small candles gift box, I was alerted to the lush zesty, fruity and strong scents each one held. All becoming more intense as I burned them. This led me onto the bigger candle within the hamper.
Due to its size, the smell was even stronger. Going from one room to another. In fact, whilst burning it, someone who came to our door said our home smelt amazing and wanted to know what I was burning. Something I was happy to tell them.
As for the diffuser, we placed this in our bathroom. Making for an even more relaxing time whilst showering or having a soothing bath before bed. Again, the smell was strong and we loved how much it filled up the room.
With smells like this floating around my home, impressing many, I was eager to try them on my body next. Gifting my mum the lavender scented shore based soap, I tried the maple and cinnamon scented creation.
Like Christmas in a soap bar, it made my whole body feel gorgeous and the smell stayed on strong enough that I didn’t need to wear my perfume on the day I used it. My mum had a similar experience, yet she used the soap more at night time to help her unwind before bed. A successful task in fact.
Both of use were amazed at the quality and smells of all the products. When it comes to Christmas, we always enjoy a toiletry and these deliver something luxurious but at a great price. Starting from around £9 and going up to around £42, they can seem pricy, yet they are totally worth it. I would happily gift these to my nearest and dearest. Especially my mum, who seemed a whole lot calmer after her experience with the soap.
Take a look at their website lovelies to find more smells and products. The Sicily one is definitely on my wish-list next, as my family are from there. Bring it on!
