L de Lolita Lempicka

L de Lolita Lempicka was launched in 2006 and the fragrance was created by perfumer Maurice Roucel. The bottle was designed by Sylvie de France. From the perfume ad and the aquamarine, pebble heart shaped bottle with the golden net, this perfume reminds me a lot of the deep blue ocean and mermaids. Even though I have an affinity for mermaids, I'm not too fond of aquatic scent, which is why I steer clear from this perfume for years, thinking it as another harsh clean scent.  The only reason why I got this is because of the bottle, it's been discontinued for years and I wanted to get this before it's gone. So imagine my surprise when I first tried it on. Instead of being bombarded with screechy and sharp aquatic scent, I was left with a delicious oriental vanilla scent that conjures images of Christmas baking. I immediately regret not getting a full bottle of this years before it's been discontinued, lol. Top Notes Bitter orange,   Bergamot

Poison By Christian Dior

I remember hating the scent of Poison during the 90s, where people seems to gravitate towards strong, assertive scents. It's one of those scents that in my opinion requires a larger than life personality to pull it off. 

Poison by the House of Christian Dior was launched in 1985, during the age of bold, flamboyant but totally rad style of the 80s.
  1. Top Notes
  2. Heart Notes
    • Carnation, 
    • Jasmine,
    •  African Orange Flower, Tuberose, 
    • Opoponax, 
    • Cinnamon, Incense,  Rose, 
    • White Honey
  3. Base notes
    • Vetiver, Musk, 
    • Sandalwood, Virginia 
    • Cedar, Amber, 
    • Vanilla, 
    • Heliotrope


Deadly and potent, this is a scent that announces your presence before you even step into a room. With it's monster sillage, Poison seems to be a fitting name for it. It's a scent that people tend to either love or hate. Not for the faint hearted, Poison is strong and heavy. A heady scent of dark opulent fruits, white florals and spicy incense, with a smokey undertone. 


As it dries down, it mellows into a lovely, soft, musky scent that seems to last forever on skin. A classic scent that's truly unique, perfect for making a bold statement, but never overdo it by dousing yourself liberately with this, as others might accidently get 'poisoned' 😉
