My top three fragrances

There is no way I could choose a favourite out of these three amazing scents! Starting from the left I have chosen Sarah Jessica Parker's NYC, Gwen Stefani's Harajuku lovers in LOVE and Lady Gaga's Fame.
I get a little weird when it comes to perfume because I feel as though I would be wasting it on an everyday occassion, yet I know I should be getting use out of them and smelling good!

The Sarah Jessica Parker scent is definitely a winner for me. It was a gift from my hunky hunky boyfriend which I got to pick out from David Jones. If I recall he spent a decent $75ish on this but I believe you can now find it for a much lower price. I actually saw it in a pack at priceline for $20 with a moisturiser and shower gel or something similar. Which I couldn't believe! It has a very cute bottle, with lots of random prints (floral, zebra, tartan etc). I will do my best to describe the scent because obviously it's a tricky task. Pretty much any scent I buy will be a sweet one. So keep that in mind. This one is definitely an evening scent and for a long time was my go-to going out fragrance. To be honest this one is particularly hard to describe other than to say it is really sweet and feminine. I'm sorry! It is relatively long lasting but you wont still smell it when you get home from a day or night out.

Harajuku Lovers LOVE was my first real fragrance. Before this I was onto the cheap body sprays that all teenagers at one point had something to do with. This amazing scent can be found around the $50 + mark. Depending on where you are shopping. It comes in a sweet little bottle with a plastic Japanese doll on the top. I am up to my second big bottle of this and I also have one of the smaller sizes. I always get compliments when I am wearing this one, so obviously it is a bit of a crowd pleaser. Once again I struggle to describe the scent. Perhaps this one is a bit florally? I have just become so accustomed to this that when I smell I think "hmm that smells like harajuku lovers!" haha which is quite unhelpful. Unfortunately I am not really a fan of another part of this collection, BABY. Which literally smells like baby powder. I kind of only put that one on if I am going to work out or just down to the shops.

Lastly Lady Gaga's fame is a great new addition to my fragrance family. I got this for Christmas when I went to the boxing day sales. Every year my father lets me pick a few must have pieces at the sales and this year it was one of them! I believe it was around the $75 dollar mark. But with the sale I also got (for the same price) an additional small, handbag friendly roll on pen that I can take around with me for touch-ups on the go! I was thrilled. I didn't notice this special and we went to the register to pay and the very busy lady informed me of the deal. Which she didn't have to do, so thankyou fragrance counter lady! It also came with a temporary tattoo... but that didn't really appeal to me lol. So obviously this fragrance is well known for its very edgy black liquid. Which yes, is what got me to smell it in the first place haha. This one I do have a good way to describe. I would probably use the word sherbet.

Anywho, I hope this wasn't too long and boring.
Happy scent hunting!
