Diptyque is one of my favourite luxury beauty brands, both for the beautiful packaging and unique scents. I tend to go for the more floral, sweet fragrances like Flowerbomb by Viktor and Rolf and Miss Dior by Dior but when I discovered this Tam Dao fragrance by Diptyque it opened a whole new world of fragrance notes that I had never experienced before. This eau de parfum by Diptyque has notes of citrus, sweet lime, coriander and ginger, making it a real woody fragrance, you certainly have to be in the right mood to wear this scent! It has a uniqueness about it which is what I like. Luxury beauty brands do come with a price tag so this fragrance is £80 for 100ml but it does last for ages and it is the sort of bottle you would keep on your dressing table even when it is empty.

A weekend spent in the lovely hometown of Manchester began by discovering this incredible fragrance by YSL. Black Opium Eau De Toilette launched in August 2015 and I’ve always been intrigued by this fragrance but never actually tried it. As you may have guessed I own a lot of perfume, so as soon as one had finished I was ready for a new one! This fragrance blends notes of black currant, pear, orange blossom, coffee and white musk making an addictive scent that lasts all day. The bottle is coated in glitter and pink diamon-dust, the perfect dressing table fragrance. It is the type of bottle that you would keep when you have finished the fragrance! 

You can find YSL Black Opium Eau De Toilette here for £53.50.
