I purchased this fragrance back in 2005 I believe, when it was released as a limited production fragrance. Consequently it was quite expensive I seem to remember. However, with two months I ws back down theshopping buy another bottle, as I was worried that it would promptly be discontinued. Indeed finding this fragrance is high street stores is near to impossible. Your best bet is to search the Internet, whre you will also be able to find the most competitive price.

~~THE PACKAGING~~

From a distance, or across the counter, the packaging to Forever and Ever looks a little tacky in my opinion. It shows a picture of a young women, with a stylish look to her, surrounded by flashes of pink, white and yellow. It is the pink colour that stands out the most and makes this box eye-catching. Upon closer inspection of the box, you realise that there is actually quite a lot of detail and the box actually looks quite good. It is eye-catching and I was taken in by the striking colours. The box is of average height and width.

~~THE BOTTLE~~

When you remove the bottle from the box the first thing you'll notice is that it is not clear. This is one of my biggest pet pevs when it comes to fragrancies. I like to be able to clearly monitor how much remains of my fragrance, thus knowing when to replace. With this bottle you are forced to guess by the weight. Something that cn be a little tricky.

Instead of being clear it is coloured light pink, with flowers and petals on it, giving it a very autuminal feel.

~~THE SMELL~~

The top notes are of Ivy leaves, Freesia petals and Water jasmine. The middle notes are of Rose, Almond blossoms and Geranium. While the base notes are of Vanilla, Musk and Ambrette seeds. The result is a gorgeous fragrance that'll keep you feeling fresh and young. It is a fresh floral smell, that is well suited to summer days. It definitely is a summer time fragrance. I probably wouldn't wear it in spring or winter, but maybe the autume months.

I love to wearing this fragrance during the day time, but it is not well suited to night time wear, such as night clubbing, or going to the pub, etc.

~~OVERALL OPINION~~

Anyone could enjoy this fragrance. Its like the smell of summer fields, captured in a bottle. I recommend it for day time use only, but you may disagree.

I award i four out of five Dooyoo stars
