Fragrance Frolics...

Published on Thursday 6th September 2007

After a lot of deliberation I have finally bought myself a new fragrance.

Really not a big deal I hear you say but for literally months I ‘ve been dithering and dathering about this scent. I knew I liked it but for some reason I couldn’t quite make myself buy it. I’m really not one to normally have this problem (in fact it’s usually quite the opposite).

Perhaps it was because I usually go for something a bit fresher or perhaps I was a bit reluctant to smell like a celebrity (or everyone else for that matter – the original fragrance from which this derives is a big seller). In fact I’ve just read that celebrity fragrances now account for over 20% of the market!

Anyway I finally caved in and ordered myself a bottle of Stella In Two and it dropped through my letterbox a few days ago.

On hearing the parcel hitting the floor I’m usually little (yes 5’1 – on a good day) Miss Excitable but this time I was a bit more apprehensive...

I spritzed myself head to toe (and my boyfriend in the eye- oops!) and although it was quite heavy at first it quickly adapted to my skin and now I think I might be a lifelong fan.

So for all you ladies out there who can’t decide whether to go for something new or not, take my advice and be brave. But if you too fall for a celebrity scent, be careful who choose. There are many out there, that when asked, you mightn’t want to claim to be wearing...
