Hey guys! Haven't done a perfume review in a while, so here we go... my favourite Estee Lauder perfume and one of my all-time favourites in general, Sensuous Nude!
This is by far the softest, prettiest fragrance I can think of. Here's the jargon from the Estee Lauder website:
"A new dimension in sensuality for today's woman. Modern, intimate and feminine, like a second skin.
Wrap yourself in the sensuality of sultry Woods and Musks, delicate Muguet, Sicilian Bergamot and Baie Rose.
Modern sensuality is natural, comfortable, effortless. The intimacy of touch and bare skin is one of life's most exquisitely sensorial experiences and a fragrance so personal and warm, it seems like one with your own skin.
Sensuous Nude reveals an exciting new dimension of your sensuality.
Modern Notes: Sicilian Bergamot , Baie Rose, Mandarin , Black Pepper
Feminine Notes: Jasmine Petals, Muguet, Coconut Water, Honey, Musk
Intimate Notes: Melted Woods NaturePrint®, Sandalwood, Amber, Musk, Heliotrope, Vanilla".
For once, this perfume jargon is actually pretty spot on (I always find perfume descriptions a bit off!) It truly is a warm, inviting, lovely fragrance - like a snuggly jumper in front of a cosy fire. It is sweet, like vanilla, but musky and woody too. You can smell the pretty, feminine highlights along with the warmer depths of the musk.
I decided a long time ago that this would be my wedding fragrance. It's beautiful, classy and warm, inoffensive yet sexy and feminine. It works perfectly no matter what the season, so it's good any time of year. The bottle is simple and sophisticated, and the scent wears incredibly well. This is the type of fragrance both women AND men love. It's strong, but not overpowering - a few sprays and you're good to go. It's the type of scent that leaves a beautiful, subtle trail wherever you go.
I can't describe how much I bloody love this perfume - so get yourself down to Boots, spritz some on and see for yourself. I've never met anyone who didn't like it - and I always get compliments when I wear it! Melissa x
