Bobbi
Bobbi Brown (1998)

Argh! Lost my whole review because basenotes wouldn't let me submit without thumbs which I forgot to do. So here is a summarised version: Jasmine - mmm - became obsessed. Bought it after waiting for them to get some more in. Wore it more. Green. That's OK but something emerging that I find unwearable (like Marc Jacobs Daisy horrible element but nowhere near as bad). Went off it, could have probably kept and worn without being sick but it didn't seem as unique as I thought at first so gave it to my aunt who should enjoy it.

I struggle to think of this as a perfume - it's more of a splash. Fresh, a little leafy and green, a little powdery, and not quite... finished. It's lovely if you can't make up your mind, or are not a fan of complex or heavy perfumes. The bottle design and the colour of the fragrance match what it smells like very well. (And as for the comment of her make-up line being "nothing special" - could not disagree more. Bobbi's make-up line is superb capsule range of products that suit everyone and the colours are designed to make you look like yourself, but better. For wild colours and fun stuff, you've got to accessorise with other brands, just like you'd buy your little black dress from one range and the jewellery from another).

I'm a little confused with this one. It started bright and perky with its citrus notes, then became quite edgy and made me questioned whether I should like it or not, before finally resting to a gorgeous scent that is powdery, incredibly long lasting and well, pleasant.

It's nice. Nothing special. Sort of like the feeling you get with her make-up line.
