Gwen Stefani: Harajuku Lovers Gwen, Eau de Toilette

Coconut is one of those smells I can never decide whether I love or hate. To be honest it's the same with anything that tastes of coconut too. On a girl's holiday to Portugal last year my mate rejected all of her own clothes in favour of mine and left them all smelling of the Bodyshop's coconut perfume. And I thought it actually smelt quite nice (which was just as well) and reflected that although many people use coconut body creams I hadn't noticed many people actually smelling of coconut perfume. Anyway I promptly forgot all about this until a few months ago when I walked past the Gwen Stefani range of perfumes. Firstly they made me feel about twelve years old because ...  Read the complete review

I have for many years been searching for a strong coconut fragranced perfume as it's one of my favourite scents and immediately transports me in my mind to a sun drenched tropical beach..... Up until recently, I feared I'd never fill that "coconutless" void in my life..... Late July this year, my precious daughter set off on her first holiday abroad with her boyfriend scary time for Mum! Couldn't visit Spain or Greece could she Noooo, had to be Egypt! That was the longest week of my life, I can tell you. Anyways she arrived back safely with my threats still ringing in her ears, "no arguing whilst away, don't fall out" I kept imaging ...  Read the complete review

I don't think that I've ever written a review on a perfume before but this is one of my faves so will give it a whirl. Well the fragrance market seems to be flooded with celeb endorsed perfumes of late, every celeb has got one or two out and most of the sell well, fans of the people will probably want to at least try the scent. I can't say I'm a huge fan of Gwen Steffani but I think she's a great singer/songwriter and admire her unique sense of style. When I heard she had bought out her own scent I wasn't really surprised but I was interested into what they smelt and looked like. Anybody familiar with Gwn Stefani and her work will know that ...  Read the complete review

Much as I'm trying to save money, summertime DOES call for a different, lighter scent than the rest of the year, and as I like to wear perfume everyday I decided it was time I splashed out on something for the coming season. I have been eyeing up the Harajuku Lovers perfumes for a long time, and had read a couple of reviews here and there, but was yet to actually smell one. I just loved the kawaii design and knew if they were designed by Gwen Stefani they would promise to be fresh, different and fun. Sniffing the tester bottles in Boots, there were a few I really liked, but G is the most different, and to me just screams "summer", and ...  Read the complete review

A friend at work had this perfume bottle with her the other day and I just thought it was so cute i had to go and take a look next time I was in Boots. I usually stick to 2 different perfumes but love trying new ones out and switching occasionally, but most of all i admit i was just drawn to the doll on the bottle! I had some difficulty trying to explain which perfume i wanted to test out (as they were all behind the counter and I couldn't see whether they actually had these ones) as i couldn't remember or pronounce the name! I would have thought saying Gwen Stefani's new perfumes with the dolls on the bottles would have been enough for the sales assistant but ...  Read the complete review
