| Elizabeth Arden Splendor Eau de Parfum Review |
Most of you know I have been using Jo Malone Nectarine Blossom and Honey* (£44) since the beginning of the year and I still love it to pieces even though there is not much left. Enter my amazing Nan (Nani to me) who kindly threw this fragrance, Elizabeth Arden Splendor* ($21), my way. My Nani is always giving me things, making me things, force-feeding me and I could not love her more for it. The truth is with anything someone you love, like really love, gives you you're going to love it anyway but this fragrance is giving me life. Do you know why? Because it is massive, a whopping 125ml of product at your disposal compared to the measly 30ml you get for a £44 Jo Malone bottle of scent. For just £13 you can have this gorgeous Elizabeth Arden fragrance in your life for many many years. I have been wearing it every single day and the scent is completely my cup of tea. Not as fresh and light as the Jo Malone's NB + Honey* but with similar notes and increased longevity. I feel like I am walking in a cloud of freesias which is prevented from being too girly with base notes of amber and sandalwood. It makes a great summer scent, suitable for the evening too. I love wearing it at all hours to be honest. For a bit more information:
Top Notes: sweet pea, water lily and freesia
Middle Notes: magnolia, champagne and musk
Base Notes: amber, rosewood and sandalwood
The perfume was created in 1998 and has since been discontinued but is widely available on a range of different outlets.
Superdrug for £13 and
Fragrance Direct* for $21 are just two of them. Every time I catch sight of the stunning blue cardboard box I smile as it
makes me think of my Nani and she's literally the cutest human being alive. I would love to know what scent you have been reaching for lately. This has been my go-to and a nice follow-up from
the Jo Malone fragrance* as it is still
fresh and feminine without being too floral. Hope you are having amazing week. Take care.
What fragrance are you loving right now?
Love ❤
Kiran

I know, she is the best! Thank you for reading Siobhân x
DeleteI don't really get along with EA perfumes, most are too heavy for my liking and I find the perfumes smell dated if that makes any sense?
ReplyDeleteShireen⎜Reflection of Sanity
It does and I feel the same way about their makeup as well. That's why I have never actually gone out and purchased anything from their brand myself. This was such a pleasant surprise for me x
DeleteI don't do well with perfumes, I'm really sensitive to smell. Glad you enjoy this one, and your Nan sounds wonderful! http://www.mrsqbeauty.com
