Glittery scents

This winter holiday season, shimmering powder in a nice bottle with an atomizer seems to be quite the trend. Personally, I LOVE it. A bottle with an atomizer looks so pretty and cute!

I already saw two different ones in my local stores. Here's one from Catrice, which retails for only €4,99. So even if you don't like shimmer powder, the price is low enough to simply buy it for the bottle. It looks nice as decoration on your make-up table.


Of course, also high-end brands have released a shimmer powder in an atomizer bottle. Here's two examples. L'Or Celeste by Givenchy, and Vol de Nuit by Guerlain. I love them, so chique!
In addition, these high-end brands have also added a fragrance to the powder.



Do you like them as much as I do?
I'm going to check out my local drugstore tomorrow, to see if they restocked the Catrice Shimmering Powder. I wanted to buy iy today, but sadly it was sold out. They usually restock on Tuesdays, so let's hope for that!



Anyhow, since I mentioned fragrances: I'm quite obsessed with them. I have managed to control myself and not buy any fragrance so far (can't spend money at the moment), but I do go to the perfumery store all the time to try out some. I'm the worst!

The ones I like most so far are:
- Chanel Coco Mademoiselle
- Miss Dior Chérie
- Lancôme Trésor in Love
- Nina by Nina Ricci

There is a special winter edition of the Nina Ricci fragrance, called Snow Princess. It looks very appealing to me, because the bottle resembles a pearl apple with golden leaves. And I happen to love gold and pearls.


I haven't found this edition in the store yet, but the fragrance is said to be similar to the original one, which I love. So far, this one seems to be the most afforable one, so I might get myself a bottle of it. Whether it will be the Snow Princess edition, or the original Nina.

Which is your favorite fragrance for this season?


Love, Nonette
