First Impression- Beautiful by Estee Lauder

Okay, well I'm not going to lie, this is a big disappointment for me, I was very excited to try this new fragrance by Estee Lauder, since I loved Sensuous Nude, the recent fragrance I tried from their company. But the moment this scent made it's way up my nostrils, I was ready to puke, which is a first for me. I swore if you would have blind folded me and told me this was an Estee Lauder perfume, I would have not believed you. If you any of have ever had washed your hands with "Dial" soap and then smelled your hands right after, but that is what first came to mind when I took the first whiff, after carefully smelling it a few more times without gagging, I noticed a sort of herbal hint of smell, but it is so overpowered by the "Dial" smell that you probably will not get to pick it up.

First impression- Chance by Chanel

Hello everyone! Hope you guys are having a great weekend, I have another first impression for the fragrance, Chance by Chanel. I have a lot of respect for Chanel, from their trendy clothing line to their gorgeous cosmetic line (everytime I swatch anything from Chanel at sephora, I am mesmerized) to their wonderful fragrances, which with a single spray, can make any girl feel elegant. Which pains me to say that I was not impressed with this fragrance. When taking the first whiff, it smelled like a generic body spray. This fragrance gives a sweet and flowery scent, but it's subtle. The notes for this fragrance are: patchouli, musk, vetiver, orris, vanilla and jasmine. For a brand as elite as Chanel, for them to put out a fragrance that smells like something you could probably find at bath & body works, makes me want to say "really?"

First impression- pure DKNY vanilla

Hello! I hope everyone is having a good week, I have for you another perfume first impression, this one is for another DKNY fragrance, this is a little tricky because I could have sworn the packaging said pureDKNY Vanilla, but when I look for more information on this product, it comes up as just "pureDKNY" So, I'm going to just call it as it was called on the sample packaging. I will be honest, in my mind I already wanted to hate this perfume just because it said vanilla. It's very hard for me to find a vanilla scent that doesn't overpower all the note in fragrances. So, when I first took a whiff of this, I was extremely surprised and shocked. It's a very subtle flowery vanilla scent the style for this fragrance :Simple. Calm. Authentic, which I could agree with, it's very laid back, not in your face.
The notes for this are:Vanilla, Dew-Drop Petal, Lotus Flower, Bulgarian Rose, Jasmine, Freesia, Lush Orchid, White Amber, Creamy Sandalwood.

I could see myself wearing this perfume, the scents seems like something I would enjoy wearing and the bottle could look good on any table or bathroom counter. You can find this perfume at Sephora and Sephora.com and a 1.0 oz bottle of this will run you 45$. I hope this was helpful, if you have any questions, please leave them in a comment below and I will answer them as quickly possible.
Thanks for reading!
