About this deal

The top accords are champagne, pink pepper and apricot blossom. Pink passion flower, marigold and white freesia are located in the heart, while the base notes include ambergris, musk and cashmere wood.

The scent is a sparkling floral bouquet that attracts with its juicy notes. It is signed by perfumer Pascal Gaurin. The one and only unpleasant thing I've experienced with this otherwise beautiful fragrance is that you can only use that much of it. I did the mistake of going for too many sprays, and I ended up being hit with an overbearing musky base that doesn't seem to work well with my skin chemistry. Therefore, a little goes a long way.Prescriptions must be written on an Authority Prescription Form, and the approval number must be noted on the prescription. Pharmacists cannot dispense the item as a pharmaceutical benefit unless it has been approved by Medicare Australia (indicated by the presence of the approval number).

I'm usually relatively sensitive to freesia as it's quite heady and super-sweet...and there's minimal sweetness here. Passion flower is also very distinctive - Think "Hypnose" - where it's done *beautifully*, or even "Incredible Things". I get none in "Floral Rush". Wrapped underneath the angelica is the guava, which adds a great deal of sweetness. The sweetness from guava is pretty much the heart of this perfume. The flowers are only barely present. Good thing that there is still a little bit of the angelica in the heart that cuts through the would've-been cloying sweetness. How many more of the Sephora "try me" coffrets will I be buying? (Well, perhaps if they start producing them for L'Artisan Parfumeur, which is now apparently a part of their line-up...) On their face, the coffrets a great deal: you pay less than the cost of a bottle of perfume for a box which contains ten or so samples, and you receive a voucher to exchange for the bottle of perfume which you have in effect paid for up front. In other words, the samples are free.

I am glad I am not the only one who finds this dried down like Fancy Love. If you like Fancy Love, Taylor Swift or Elizabeth Arden Fifth Avenue Style or Burberry you may like this. There is a hint of the original princess in here but only slightly. When I first smelt this I thought it was very pretty and a nice combination of the original Princess mixed with some sweet fruit but then it just dried down to a creamy white floral. If only it stayed the way it was when first sprayed it would have been a nice summer alternative to Princess. I too broke mine trying to get it out of the box the square bottle and the huge lid fit so tight into the gift set that as I tried to pull it out the lid came off and broke the spray nozzle. I have to leave it at home now I cannot take it with me because it leaks everywhere. It doesn't last long on me so it is a pain in that respect. Overall it is a nice perfume but a little musky and non descriptor it could have been better but somehow it just misses the point I am not sure what Vera was trying to achieve with this? Some of my friends received this fragrance from their boyfriends for Valentine's Day this year. I say that's a sweet and thoughtful move, but I'm glad my boyfriend didn't follow in the same suit. I received a bottle of Givenchy Ysatis instead. Feminine and classy, yet a little sexy and romantic. Honestly, it smells expensive to me. If I was going on a romantic trip to Italy, this is what I would wear. You can definitely gift these to your loved ones as they are available in 8 different variants with cute names:

Most certainly an underrated perfume. The bottle design is super eye catching and it was the primary reason why I bothered testing it out in the first place. Fragrance lasts longer on damp skin and blooms when worn on moisturized skin. Apply your fragrance right out of the shower while your skin is clean and warm. Your pores are open and can soak up the fragrance. As your skin warms up during the day, the scent of perfume gets released slowly.I'm also not going to lie - I kinda having fun with the bottle. It's just girly, goofy, and a bit enchanting. Love the colours, too. Some drugs may have Authority Required (Streamlined) status which does not require an explicit approval from Medicare, instead the doctor can use the Authority code found in the published Schedule for a given drug/indication.

So, it doesn't really smell like Heavenly. If I scrunch my nose and really use my imagination, I could see how it might be slightly similar. But this is not nearly as warm or sweet or powdery. I wear this to the gym to reduce my stink-factor, and after a run on the treadmill, I smell my forearms (a relatively safe place to smell after knowing you're drenched in sweat) - and it's amazing. You get a deep, intoxicating floral musk. I *assume* the prettiness is from the lotus flower and tuberose; the intoxication is from the musk, and the deeper turn is from the sandalwood. This aroma is quite prominent on my skin for some time before the fragrance turns into a more pinkish direction which is all about magnolia and some nondescript floral sweetness.Overall, scent is kinda disappointing (I want the really girly, fruity aspect), but I'll use up my bottle for that base note period. The only factors that I dislike about this perfume is the price which even with the sales that come and go, I believe its not priced right. Also, as much as I adore the bottle, it isnt very travel friendly, in fear of the cap breaking or the bottle shatter in my bag, I decide not to take this perfume with me for touch ups when im on the go. Lastly, I felt a little deceived when found out how little the 30ml bottle was, compared to how HUUGE the box it came in.
