Sigh...airport's DFS no longer carry the perfume 'glamourous' by Ralph Lauren. Called Isetan counter and was informed that the perfume was already discontinued in the Singapore market since last year. Guess the only way to get it is from the States or UK. URGH! *cry 2 buckets of tears*
Review on 'Glamourous' - written by daylelisahall on 13/02/07 - Rating: (5 of 5 possible stars)
Advantages: gorgeous smell, lasts a long time
Disadvantages: more expensive than most other perfumes
As anyone who had read my other reviews will know, I am a huge perfume fan. It is very hard for me to name an exact favourite as I have so many but Ralph Lauren - Glamourous is definitely on my top ten list. Packaging Ralph Lauren Glamourous comes in a gold square box which is quite appealing to the eye. The bottle itself is round, with a flat top lid (the lid is round so its fits on the nozzle but it has a flat top to it). There is a small diamonte enclosed within the lid which is quite fittingly glamourous for a perfume bottle. The bottle itself is clear which is handy as you are able to see how much scent you have left. The lid is gold and matches the colour of the box. The Price - I find that Ralph Lauren perfumes tend to me more expensive than some other on the market. A 100ml bottle will cost you £56 and a 50ml would cost you £46. I am forever looking on eBay for cheap perfumes and I have to admit that you can't really seem to get this perfume much cheaper than the above prices. The Smell - according to Ralph Lauren this perfume contains rich florals, tuberose, clementine, calla lily and vetiver although I am not sure what any of them are, I can tell you, that this perfume smells divine. Its most definitely a feminine fragrance but without being too sickly sweet or flowery. It is very distinctive and once you have smelt it, you would certainly recognise it again. I would describe the scent as almost romantic, sweet without being too sweet and not as flowery as you would imagine it to be from the ingredients list. It is also quite a refreshing smell. Does The Scent Last - This is another reason why I like Ralph Lauren fragrances, they certainly have staying power. I can wear this all day and can definitely smell it at the end of the day. The scent is relatively strong when you first put it on (although not unpleasantly so) and the scent fades slightly throughout the last leaving you with a nice sweet feminine smell at the end of the day. Summary - I would definitely recommend this perfume to all girlie girls as its certainly quite feminine. Saying that, I do not consider myself to be a girlie girl and I love the fragrance too. Although this perfume has lots of flowers in the ingredients, I would definitely not say that it's a flowery smelling fragrance. It it sweet and a little bit spicy. The only downside to the perfume is the price.
Summary: Certainly makes you feel Glamourous
