This is the first time I share my blog as a beauty blog, so I could call myself as a "so-called" beauty blogger, right? Wow, this status sounds unfamiliar with my personality, but I still love making myself better and better everyday.
Moreover, I really apologize in advanced on not making my blog fabulous, because my purpose is practice English writing. Please forgive my selfishness; however, all of you - my beloved friend- fell free to have a look at my reviews and give me your honest comments; therefore, this is a win-win situation. I will appreciate all of them (your comments).
Thank you for your attention! Now, let's begin!
The star of today is a drugstore perfume which is obviously affordable: Yves Rocher Moment de Bonhuer - Eau de parfume (We can search its images on Google easily)
Here are my personal comments:
1. Price
In Viet Nam, it will cost more than 1 million VND if we buy it in the showroom. Frankly, I have no idea about that unacceptable price for a medium-quality drugstore perfume, so it is not a wise decision to buy things in showrooms in Viet Nam.
What is my solution? - I bought it, no, actually, I discovered it from an online shop. Aha! It is another long story which I feel no hesitation to share it with you guys...maybe later.
Briefly, I bought it for 500 000 VND (What a deal!!!)
2. Packaging
Well, it is simple, and... that's it. The theme is white, and there is a kind or rose printed in the front of the box while in the back, there are a description, ingredients and the company's address (which are all) in France, so that I cannot describe detailedly to you. So...sorry!!!
Now, we will move to the bottle.
My perfume is the largest size - 50ml (1.7 oz), so its shape is vertically rectangle literally. If you buy the 30ml bottle, the shape may be a square.
From my point of view, the bottle doesn't look cheap at all. In fact, I was amazed at its design. Let me explain: The bottle has 2 colours pink and green. The former is seen at the top while the latter is at the bottom which create a very miracle feeling to me. However, the cap is a disappointment which is completely loose and weak.
3. Smell
This is the bottom line for everyone when we choose a perfume.
Before discuss about it, I would like to inform that my tropical city's climate is so humid that local residents frequently get sweat which may cause many drawbacks when they use fragrance. In other words, I have a love-hare relationship with this perfume.
Now, let's move into the smell!
I know! There is no point describing a smell because only I've smell it. Speaking of that, I want to say that I've read so much wonderful reviews about perfume but none of them are persuasive. Therefore, after reading this review, I strongly suggest going straight to the showroom experiencing the smell yourself. There is no hurt to do such a practical thing.
The smell is 100% lovely: it feels not childish, or old at all. It is just a safe choice for everyone. However, this perfume is not suitable for women who want to be sexy, strong and attractive; instead, a young and lively girl will love this perfume, especially for daytime.
The main note of this is rose which is of course the signal of women ^^
BUT.....hold on... we've not finised yet!
4. Overall
PROS
I love the smell and I think you will love it, too
The price is affordable so you can give it a shot
I've heard through grapevine that this is a dupe of Chloe perfume (I've not tried the latter yet)
CONS
The smell is not long lasting
The bottle is too big to bring with me
The cap disappoints me
Overall, I used to love this perfume and give all my heart to it, but now,to some extent, I just like it.
Score: 6/10
Repurchase: no ... there are still some with better quality.
Thanks for reading! I hope you feel it entertaining.
