I got a sample of this delicious scent in one of my fave magazines a while ago... I'm a total magazine freak, haha. :) So here's a review of this Oriental Floral, beautiful smelling perfume. It's new in South Africa, big drum roll please!
ELIE SAAB LE PARFUM
Radiant, voluptuous, addictive
The top note opens on a sun-kissed, radiant orange blossom, as an ode to light.
The middle note develops into a jasmine absolute, a legendary flower in perfumery, imparting voluptuousness and elegance to the fragrance. It combines with a pure, modern patchouli heart.
The base note unfolds into a cedar woody accord adding character and a lingering trail, while the honey rose envelops the composition in a beautifully addictive note...
Sounds great hey, well this is a review from their website... Personally I think it's a very grownup, spicy smell, something that I wouldn't actually wear myself, as I'm more of a gourmand girl... (I love perfumes that smell good enough to eat, like my old fave, 5th Avenue.)
However the smell does last for the whole day and becomes more softer, actually very lovely, reminding me of luxurious upper class ladies... And yes I felt very expensive the whole day. Expect to pay around R675.00 for a 50 ml

Turning 28
I still feel like a girl and behave like one too... :) haha Growing up, um with all the everyday stresses and responsibilities...well sometimes it's just not the party that I hoped for. Can you relate? However, with age comes wisdom and acceptance, acceptance being what I like most about getting older. I feel more free to be me and to express my whimsical self. At 28 I still have so many dreams and goals inside of me, things I want to do and achieve. Life is just such a beautiful journey!
