River Island London Perfume Review

Hey guys, today I am reviewing the River Island London perfume. This is a pretty inexpensive perfume and only costs €13/£10 for 30ml. I have to say straight off the bat that I'm not crazy about the scent. I got it as a present and it's a little too sweet for my taste. It's a very girly scent but it a bit overpoweringly sweet and fruity.

I like the simple packaging of this perfume though; a purple bottle with round black top. I also really like the name because I love London. It's one of my favourite places so I have absolutely no complaints about the name. It seems to last quiet a long time too and isn't one of those perfumes that fades away in the first hour of wearing it. The only thing that's getting me is the scent,it's just not for me. Although, I'm not in love with the scent of this perfume, lots of other people seem to like it, including members of my family and other beauty bloggers online so I would recommend trying a sample in the shop to see what you make of it. Just because I don't like it doesn't mean that you won't either.

River Island describes this perfume as "sweet and cheeky". They then go on to say,"you won’t resist this forbidden delight that gathers a mouthwatering fruity cocktail on top accompanied by addictive gourmand notes on the drydown. It is cool, effortless and a real statement fragrance for our chic girl." If that sounds like something you would like then make sure to pop into your nearest River Island to see if they have it, or if you are a rebel, who will risk getting a scent that you mightn't like, then you can order it here on River Island's website. 

I hope you enjoyed this post!! If you did, make sure to save it on Bloglovin or give it a +1 on Google Plus. Have you ever tried this perfume before or any of the other River Island perfumes? Let me know in the comment section below!

Zara Woman Cherry Perfume Review

Hey guys! How are you all? Today, I've decided to do a quick review of the Zara Women Cherry perfume that that I got for free as a half used tester a while ago. I thought that I might as well tell you about it because Zara perfumes are pretty cheap and usually only range from €10-€25. I'm not in love with this scent but I do like it I will wear it until it's gone, probably on and off as I wear my other perfumes as well. 

This perfume is quite light and sweet smelling. The top notes are cherry and plum, the middle notes are pear and mandarin orange, and the base notes are vanilla and sandalwood. I'm not crazy about fruity scents but I think the vanilla and sandalwood saved it for me,  because I love vanilla scents, even though their is only a hint of it in this perfume. A lot of the other Zara perfumes that I've tried last quite long, but because this one is so light and fresh, I feel it fades away quite quickly. Overall, this wouldn't be my favourite Zara perfume and it doesn't last all day but it's quite nice as something light to spritz on throughout the day to keep you smelling sweet. 

I hope you liked this post. Have you ever tried any of the Zara perfumes before? If so, which one? What did you think of it? Leave a comment below.
