Viktor and Rolf Bon Bon Review

I have been lusting after this perfume for a long time. The day I got my hands on a bottle of my very own was a good day! I love the scent of this fragrance which in very simple terms I smell like a big caramel lolly! This fragrance is very sweet and has beautiful caramel notes throughout. I have the EDP and find it doesn't tend to last on my skin as well as EDT products tend to. After 4-6 hours there is only a little bit of fragrance left and I find myself topping it up with another spray or two just to get the full bodied scent back. Because of this I can see I'm going to go through it very quickly (just as well I got the 90ml bottle). The packaging is nice and sleek and the bottle is beautiful. I am obsessed with bows and even though I know the bottle is supposed to look like a Bon Bon to me it looks like a massive beautiful bow is sitting on my vanity and I love it!

All girls will fall in love with a specific perfume more than once in their life, whether it is the icon who released the perfume, the bottle or purely the beautiful scent it leaves you for the day.

Well, I've always been a girl to own a few perfumes at once. I tend to collect them, and buy them purely for the bottle. But never have I become so excited about a perfume that I needed it RIGHT NOW!

Firstly, the bottle... I actually always thought the bottle was meant to be a bow which is perfect for me, I'm a bow obsessed girl. I got so excited I had to go try it, the first smell directly from the bottle had me dreamy, all I could smell was freshly baked caramels. I tried in on instantly and left it on for the day, I was in love. Move over all my other perfumes, it was all about Viktor & Rolf's latest scent.

A few months went by and everytime I walked past I always gave myself the sneaky spray, till we were doing some Christmas Shopping & they had the Christmas Packs for Sale for my dream fragrance, my partner didn't even need to ask me. Straight to the counter it went, the box was beautiful and I still have it in my bedroom. I was told the box & the bottle was to resemble a giant french toffee, but my reviews still make it a beautiful bow. I have worn this beauty everyday since, if you love sweet perfumes that smell fruity you will LOVE this scent.

Oh and they say... She who wears Bonbon, dresses herself in perfume whilst creating her own story. She is empowered, beautiful and complete.

I like really sweet and youthful perfumes rather than mature ones. I think this is a good in between for a slightly more sophisticated perfume but one that is also sweet, fun and easy to wear. It lasts for a good amount of time and isn't overpowering. The top notes are a little sharp for my liking but I like how the caramel scent becomes more noticeable as you wear it.

I knew after reading a blog about its official launch overseas that I had to have it.

Well if the sweet name and the cute bow shaped bottle hasn't already sold you on this perfume... then the fragrance will. And no doubt you will have guessed the main note to this fragrance just from the name alone.

You will be asking what everyone who buys perfume wants to know... what does it smell like, does it last and is it worth all that money? The answer to the latter in my opinion is YES! and here is why

The packing is stylish and cute The first hit of the perfumes base notes is mild sweet citrus and vanilla Mid tones, are just as soft and sweet but more caramel and peach Top notes soft sweet caramel, amber... makes me feel like sipping on champagne.

Lasting power... Oh yes, it lasts, and last... but it isn't heavy, nor over-powering (ok that is not permission to bath in it though), happily re-spritz if you feel the need before you head out for a night on the town after work (for instance).

The bottle as I mentioned before is a cute magenta bow, but the bottles are larger and heavier than you might anticipate so I recommend the smallest bottle being the 30ml for ease of holding and applying (feels very natural to hold one handed and apply with no difficulty).
