I tend to get samples from Latest in Beauty once a month and for £1.50 for 3 samples I don't think it is too bad. Over the months I have had a mixture of creams and potions, so I was surprised to see the most recent selections to choose from contains perfume. I naturally jumped at the chance to try these, the problem being two of the ones I wanted to choose were in the same selection bath, so I will have to try the other one next month.
The choices I made were, Lady Gaga's fame, Kim Kardashians latest offering whose name I can't see on the box and original Hugo for men. The latter I know and love how it smells on men, I purely want to convince my hubby it is the right one for him. I am using the subtle approach on him here.
I haven't tried the Kadashian perfume yet as it is the one I am least keen on trying. I did however break open the Lady Gaga Fame the moment it was in my sticky little mitts. The reason being it was recommend by a fellow blogger Fee at http://www.makeupsavvy.co.uk . So far I have found we share a similar taste in perfume as it was her who recommended the Laura Mercier set I have fallen in love with. I used one spray on my wrist and waited. Granted in the sample size I can't see the black to clear affect I have heard so much about, but the scent was so enchanting I was not bothered. I tried one spray one at 10 am it is now half 6 and it is still going strong. I don't know the best way to describe the aroma, except to say it is like that old school smell, you used to smell when you went in to department stores as a child. It says it based on belladonna, semen and blood, well that doesn't not give it justice. It is along the scents of channel 5 although this one agrees with me.
Unsurprisingly like all my choices in perfume it is at the higher end of celebrity prices. But it so doesn't smell like a lot of the celebrity fragrances which can be cheap and short living on the skin. This is a quality scent and worth the price at around the £30 mark for a small bottle, as a little goes a long way.
