Advantages: Very sweet

Disadvantages: Too sweet !

The Natural Collection Sprays from Boots come in a number of different aromas - this review refers specifically to their 'Strawberry' body spray.

I was given this for Christmas about three years ago, and it was part of a shower / bath crème set and it was so cute.

It comes in a clear see-through bottle and the pinky red liquid did look like something straight out from the chemistry lab. This is actually a really nice spray - but only to be used in small amounts and only occasionally...

It has a gorgeous sweet strawberry smell and really wins you over when you first open the bottle to try it. It was a long time since I had worn strawberry body spray and I now remember why. It was a good thing that I was given this during the holidays and I still had the following few days off, I decided to give the bottle of spray a try...


After a couple of hours, the sweetness of it was beginning to irritate me. Perhaps, To be fair the spray did make me feel more girly, and frighteningly, does have some intoxicating effects (psychologically !) however when you're in your late 20s, you do not want to be acting like an immature foolish school girl (no I was not drunk) and I did wonder why I felt a little nostalgic about this.


It is a big taboo especially when you have to be marching into work in an expensive dark suit, all done up smart and sophisticated - only to walk past some of your colleagues to give them a whiff of this... not very professional.

I suppose, the good thing about it is, particularly when it represents us girls in our sweet innocent years.
To be fair this is a lovely strawberry body spray, but more suitable for little girls and for those of us who still love it of course.
It is very easy to over do it with the bottle - perhaps they should somehow program the spray to release less of the perfume. The aroma tends to linger on forever, so a little does go a long way. I have tried a few others from the same range in the past so this is actually true with the whole of Boots' Natural Collection.


At £1.99 for a 150ml bottle, you can't really ask for any better as it lasts for ages.

Summary: A little goes a long way.
