L'eau De Sonia Rykiel (blue)

This is one of my StrawberryNET haul (as what you guys already know). What drove me to include this in my shopping cart back then is that this is one brand that i haven't heard of...hehe...not a good deciding reason huh?

It's just that i haven't even seen this in any of our local mall...or is it just that i don't linger that much on the perfumery section..?...Who knows?....But nevertheless...this is the first fragrance that i brought unsniffed.

Im actually contemplating if i actually like this or not...hmmmm.....
Okay,ill just put my thoughts into this post...

As soon as i took it out of the box, the scent of 'new stuff' just permeated the air around me. I uncapped it & i thought that it smells nice. But when i sprayed it on my wrist to test it out, i was surprised when the first thought that entered my head is 'newly varnished furniture'....

oh,man! I don't mind woody scent...but this is way toooooooooooooooo woody... I feel like im a furniture that has been washed over by varnish. I asked my mom to smell it & that's also what she said....

I guess everybody have smelled new furniture & it does smell nice...but for a person to smell like a furniture..i guess that won't do for me... There were lots of details on the internet about the fragrance involved on it..but i dont think it correctly describes it. So ill just put it in a simple phrase "a woody 'new furniture' fragrance"..lol..

It does smell nice as what i said, but just not for me...If one person like woody scents then i guess they'll like this one. I guess i prefer smelling like a real girl... :-P

So now, im still contemplating what im gonna do with it. I just sprayed it on my wrist once & that's just about it. I eventually gift wrapped it so i don't have anything to give for emergency situations..lol...i have something ready....but for now i really don't know what i'll do with it...im thinking of selling it on Ebay though..but im still not sure...

The bottle is WAY cute! I'm sorry you're not a fan, though. You could always swap it away if you're a member of makeupalley or give it to a family member or friend.
