NEW Paco Rabanne Olympea Intense EDP

I don't normally write a complete review on a fragrance, but I feel like I need to with this one. As soon as I smelt the New Paco Rabanne Olympea Intense EDP I just thought 'OH MY GOODNESS, THIS SMELLS AMAZING' so I just had to share it with you. I really wish there was smellivision because I'm sure you would love it too. For me, I did like the original Olympea, but I LOVE the NEW one.

Paco Rabanne Olympea Intense is such more bolder, sexier and just a much more intense fragrance. I love the scent, however when I actually spray it onto my skin, I cannot smell it, but other people can. This does actually mean that it suits your skin, which I think is really cool. Fragrance is so special, because it does change on everyones skin, it warms to your skin and your PH changes the scent. When I first sprayed this onto my skin, I had 5 people ask me what it was, and for me, this doesn't happen. People just don't ask what I'm wearing, so I was very shocked that people were actually complimenting me.


Woody, Oriental Fragrance
Ingredients: 


Salty Vanilla, Amber Accord, Orange blossom white pepper, cedarwood, white amber and grapefruit flower. 
You get that burst of salty vanilla, which gives it that sweetness, whilst the orange blossom and white pepper give it that edginess and then you have the white amber and cedarwood which give it that warm deeper base. 

The fragrance comes in 3 different sizes.      


30ml - £46
50ml - £62
80ml - £80


If you loved the original Olympea, then you have to go into store and smell this one. I just love that it lasts longer, not because it's more concentrated, it is still an Eau De Parfum, but its more of an intense scent and I've been getting a lot of compliments with wearing it. I think its a gorgeous spring/summer fragrance too, I think thats the sweetness from the salty vanilla. I'm a massive fan of sweet scents, that are also woody, so this one really made for me, haha.

3 Perfect Female Fragrances for Valentines Gifts

Personally for me, I am not a huge fan of Valentines day this is because I think that everyday you should show that you love someone not just one day of the year. This doesn't mean I expect a bunch of flowers every single day, even though that does sound nice.



Anyway, if you are a guy reading this then *high five* to you for reading a girls blog... But seriously, heres three fragrances which I love and would be perfect for Valentines day. I think fragrance is such a lovely gift, because it's a personal option for the recipient. I know that it's hard for someone to pick some fragrances for the opposite sex, you don't know where to start, you don't know if they will like it and you just don't want to waste your money on something. (Tip - if you do buy someone a fragrance and you really aren't sure if they will like it, don't let them open the packaging, just go into a shop with them and test it with the tester - on the skin. Then if they don't like it, you can return it).

Chanel Coco Mademosielle EDP




This fragrance is just my favourite smell in the entire world, I don't know anyone that doesn't like the smell of this, it's just gorgeous. Chanel is such a luxury brand, and you know when you buy Chanel you are getting quality and your loved one will love you for it!

It comes in three different sizes:

30ml - £49
50ml - £68
100ml - £96

Top Notes: Orange, Mandarin Orange, Orange Blosson and Beragmot
Middle Notes: Mimosa, Jasmine, Turkish Rose and Ylang-Ylang
Base Notes: Tonka Bean, Patchouli, Opoponax, Vanilla, Vetiver and White Musk

Marc Jacobs Decadence EDP


This is a new fragrance, I think that its very different to Marc Jacobs normal floral fragrances such as daisy. This is a bit more woody to me, and I prefer it a lot. Marc Jacobs is known for his fine fragrances, they are very popular and very beautiful.

It comes in three different sizes:

30ml - £48.50
50ml - £59
100ml - £86

Notes: Italian Plum, Saffron and Iris, Bulgarian Rose, Sambac jasmine and Orris Root

The bottle design is inspired by one of Marc Jacobs iconic bags.

Paco Rabanne Olympia EDP




This was launched in August 2015. It represents the female version of Paco Rabanne Invictus for men. This perfume just reminds me of an angel or something gorgeous like that, jus the bottle and the packaging of the box. I believe you can't go wrong with this fragrances.

It comes in three different sizes:

30ml - £40
50ml - £54
80ml - £59.50

Top Notes: Sparkling Green Mandarin, Aquatic Notes of Water Jasmine and Fiery Ginger Lily
Middle Notes: Salted Vanilla
Base Notes: Sandalwood, Cashmere and Ambergris


I hope this helped you, or you found it interesting to find out what is actually in these fragrances with all the different notes. Hope you have a lovely Valentines day, even if you are happy and single on the sofa with a fat takeaway - enjoy! Lots & lots of love
