So...at the beginning of the week I was prancing around in London and I was, as you usually tend to be when you go into a store, bombarded by perfumes and sales assistants desperately trying to sell them. I have, for some time now, been looking into buying a new scent for the season. That something something to wear as autumn makes its way. I had been stumped with Marc Jacobs and couldn’t figure which of his perfumes I liked the best. The problem is that in my opinion they all smell relatively the same. But then I walked past the Lancôme counter and a gentleman clad in the usual black offered a sample of Lancôme’s newly launched perfume Tresor Midnight Rose. To begin I thought I was far too sweet and pulled a face as I walked away. I put the sample in my bag and forgo about it. Later on in the week I opened my bag and thought ‘wow, what is that smell?!’ The perfume had changed overnight and smelt delicious like summer. I think with the sun shining madly these past couple of days, it’s done nothing but improved how I feel towards the perfume. It has improved it enough for me to go and buy it. To give you an example of how it smells, it smells an awful lot like Paco Robane Lady Million, but a lot more sweet and muskier. If you smell it carefully you’ll smell the raspberries, the blackcurrants, the vanilla, the rose and the jasmine. It’s really quite a wonderful perfume but it really needs to be applied lightly (having said that, I've been spraying it all over like a mad person. It is my new obsession). x
