DKNY Fragrance pureDKNY Verbena

I was given this as a sample and when I sniffed the opening I thought I would like this. It smelled faintly like aftershave with a floral touch. But when I actually applied it, the smell was overwhelming and stuck unpleasantly in my nose. There are some overwhelming smells that I can handle and even like, but they are strongly sweet and not sharp floral scents. Which is what this is.

So now I know I'm not a huge fan of verbena, at least not in large quantities! (The actual wear time on this was about half a work day- I was afraid that because I didn't like it that it would last forever, but it didn't!)

Lise Watier Vent du Sud Fragrance

I was given this as a sample from Shopper's Drug Mart and I just love it! It's a little bit heavy but I like that about it. I also really like that it's both fresh and sweet. And not fruit sweet but vanilla sweet. The one downfall was that it only lasted a few of hours before fading away.

Unfortunately when I was applying it the second day of trying it out I spilled the rest of my sample! My tablecloth smells amazing but I'm still sad!
