I am a notorious perfume hoarder and had racked up quite the collection over the years! However, I decided that enough was enough and I had to either throw out or give away several of my older bottles that I hadn't used in a while. I actually haven't purchased any new fragrances in a while as I couldn't really justify spending the money when I really needed to use up some of the ones I already owned!
I generally tend to gravitate towards quite sweet, fruity and floral scents so most of these perfumes fall into that category.
So this is what my perfume collection now looks like (after a major overhaul):

My top 3 "go-to" fragrances right now are:
Coco Mademoiselle - Chanel
My all time favourite perfume! There is something so luxurious about Chanel perfume and you just feel amazing when you wear it.
This scent is a bit more "grown up" and "sophisticated" compared to those I usually go for but definitely still has a hint of that fresh, "girlyness" that I adore!
I love to wear this when I'm going somewhere where I want to look and feel my best! I could probably wear this perfume every single day and never tire of the amazing scent!
It can be a little on the pricey side but in my opinion it is definitely worth it if you ever feel like treating yourself as it does smell incredible and it is also pretty long-lasting.
Daisy Eau So Fresh - Marc Jacobs
I am not a huge fan of the original 'Daisy' scent but Marc Jacobs have recently relaunched and put a little spin on it and have come out with a few new 'Daisy' fragrances. This one is by far my favourite! I think it was originally limited edition but it's been out for a while and is definitely still available right now!
This scent is perfect for spring and summer- It's so fresh, charming and pretty and it instantly uplifts my mood whenever I spray it! Not to mention the bottle, like most MJ perfumes, is adorable!
Just Pink - Next (I bought this scent a quite a while ago and i think they may have changed it as I cannot find the one that I have on the Next site. Mines is a 30ml eau de toilette.)
Next is a UK clothing (and home) company. It's line of fragrances are great if your looking for something new but don't really want to splash the cash! This was one of the first fragrances I ever owned as my mum used to shop here quite a lot. To this day I still adore it! It's very fresh and floral and I always find myself reaching for it. I always take this perfume with me on trips or whenever I go away somewhere as I find it's just a really easy little bottle to travel with and a little definitely goes a long way with this perfume!
I do believe Next change up the packaging on their perfumes quite a lot as every bottle of this I've owned over the years has been different but the smell has always remained amazing and that's the main thing.
Heat Rush - Beyoncé
Celebrity fragrances aren't usually my thing as when I was younger I used to buy them a lot and usually because I liked the person and not so much the fragrance. But I guess that's how they get you! This perfume I purchase because I love both the scent and the celebrity endorser equally.
Beyoncé is one of my biggest idols. She is amazing. I don't even need to go any further.
This perfume smells good enough to eat! It's kind of hard to describe the scent but I'll give it a go: It's very fruity and sweet but there is definitely a hint of something vibrant and (dare I say?) sexy about it. I love to take this on holiday when I go abroad or wear it when it's really warm and sunny outside as I feel it just fits that mould perfectly! For instance this was the perfect perfume for when I was holidaying in the Caribbean!
The only problem, for me, is that I don't love the bottle! I like to keep my most used perfumes out on my desk but I'm just not a lover of this bottle and it doesn't really match my room but that's just me being nit picky!
(You are now most likely aware that I am not so great at describing perfume scents! This is why I've included links to where you can buy these perfumes as these sites will definitely give you more "professional" descriptions if you are interested.)
As I mentioned above, it's been a while since I last purchased a new fragrance and I'm thinking of treating myself to a new one soon so I would love it if you could leave any recommendations down in the comments! I'd really like to hear some of your favourite fragrances or even any you think I might like :).
