Favorite perfume

Yeap, my new favorite fragrance.
Giogio Armani Acqua di Gioia


I've been wanting to buy this fragrance since last year November in airport, but only decided that I had to get one. Now if you're a girl you know what I mean. Whenever you walk pass a perfume store, you spray some random scents onto your wrist. If there was a particular scent that makes you smile the whole day each time you spray it, thats the right one for you. And if you keep thinking of that scent no matter which other scent you spray, time to get the one you're missing.

Sounds a little silly now, but I love sniffing myself nowwwwww!

Top Notes
Amalfi Lemon Mint

Middle Notes
jasmine Pink Pepper peony

Base Notes
French labdanum Virginia cedar Sugar


Yaya whatever I know that's supposed to be the right notes for this perfume, but this is what I smelled, and I don't really care for the original notes. And if you're getting the perfume based on the advert, don't bother, this perfume doesn't smell like ocean and jungle or whatever. Its pure happiness. So the model's smile is true. :D

When I first spray it on me, all I smell was mango. Seriously, a very sweet and warm scent of mango. I'm not a fan of eating mango though, so not to worry if you hate it too. You'll love this scent. Seriously.Then some weak citrus scent which I supposed came from the amalfi lemon. As for the middle note, a little bit of jasmine, red pepper but not defined. I didn't really smell much peony, but it doesn't make a difference to me. As for the base note, YEAH! Sugar. A strong strong strong sugar scent sums up the entire perfume.

I don't know if it is just me or what, but I feel so happy when I smell this perfume. It feels like I'm eating some sinful brown sugar cake with lots of mango topping + wipped creams etc without gaining weight. :P And not to mention how this makes me happy. Just like how you'd feel like after high sugar intake. High.

Yet this perfume is not a wild girl type of fragrance. Its girly, its sophisticated, its relaxing, its simple, its true.

The most common complain about this perfume is the lack of depth. But come on, why must smell like you're in deep thought/you're a difficult person. Well its not bad to have a perfume of depth but its not a bad thing to enjoy simplicity at times too. This perfume makes you happy. Anything with too much depth in it makes you think and stuff so there goes the happiness. No clash.

alright bye
