Hello! Hope you're all keeping well on this peculiar Wednesday evening. As I write, the snow is falling fast outside. I'm thankful to be inside with the fire on keeping me cosy and the kettle boiling on repeat! Tea any one?!
I usually like to write on a Wednesday evening. We're over the hump of the working week, the end is in sight and people tend to be in better form. Of course I could be wrong but that's the way I like to look at it.
I wanted to keep this Wednesday's post light and breezy, and what better way to do that than talking about perfume?!
I think with perfume it's either a feast or a famine. You're either down to your last precious drop of your favourite scent, or else you've been gifted a few bottles around the same time and have nearly too many to choose from! Of course we all would prefer the latter situation. That's kind of the situation I'm in at the minute. Don't get me wrong I have three on the go, hardly swimming in a big tub of perfume but I actually can't remember the last time I was in this situation. Sur lookit, I'm not complaining. Here are three of the perfumes I'm using at the minute and also a few of my favourites, you know - those ones you always give yourself a quick squirt of in the airport.
1. Jo Malone Earl Grey and Cucumber
Of course Jo Malone had to feature on this list. This beauty came into my life last November when I casually mentioned to my mother as we were strolling down Shop Street (Galway) that I had run out of perfume. I said I wanted to get a Jo Malone one but wasn't sure which scent. She kindly insisted on buying it for me. In to Brown Thomas we marched and straight over to the Jo Malone Counter. The girl was like, 'So are you looking for a fresh, citrus, or fruity smell?' I had no idea. I just smelled them all. We left with a citrus scent - Earl Grey and Cucumber in a 30 ml bottle for €54.00.
2. Jenny Glow Pomegranate Noir
I got this as a Secret Santa present from one of the girls at Christmas. I use it as my work perfume and I love it! It really is difficult to distinguish the difference between this and Jo Malone's Pomegranate Noir. There is a huge difference in price though. Jenny Glow's version retails at just €7.45 for an 80 ml bottle.
3. Daisy Dream by Marc Jacobs
This is the most recent addition to the collection. I received this as a gift recently. A 50 ml bottle costs €54.00 in duty free. It's a fresh and light perfume and I just love the bottle!
4. Gucci Flora by Gucci Gorgeous
This is my duty free quick squirt and run! I really don't know why I've never bought it. Perhaps I will when the above three run out. It has a beautiful floral scent and is plain and simply just divine.

5. Victor and Rolf Flower Bomb
I had this perfume before but alas, all good things come to an end. It's a floral scent as suggested by it's title. It's one of those scents that everyone loves! A 50 ml bottle will set you back €90.00
