Advantages: Smells great, lasts all day, the bottle lasts for ages - even the 40ml, comes in a nice box

Disadvantages: None

My friend is obessed with this perfume, and she got me a 40ml bottle for my birthday (she's too nice lol!) as she wanted me to try it.

Packaging and Appearance

Jimmy Choo eau de parfum comes in a pink box with snakeskin printed on and the Jimmy Choo logo on the front of the box. I love the snakeskin cover, it reminds me of a Jimmy Choo bag! On the front of the box is of course the Jimmy Choo logo along with the volume of perfume (40ml, 60ml or 100ml) and on the base of the box is an ingredients list. The bottle is round with dimples and around the neck of the bottle is the Jimmy Choo logo again, and the bottle has a cubed black lid. The perfume is pinky-peach in colour.

The notes in this perfume are:

HEART NOTES - Tiger Orchard
BASE NOTES - Toffee, Indonesian Patchouli

When I first sprayed this perfume it was very strong and sweet, and at first I thought it was sickly, but as the day went on the smell leveled out and became less sweet. When the perfume is fresh on it is also very fruity and zingy, which detracts from the sweetness a bit. This is quite heavy and strong, so this is the perfect night-time perfume - it's too heavy for daytime, but you could wear it for the daytime if you wanted to, it's just that I think it is more of an evening scent. Because the perfume was so strong, I only needed one spray for it to be noticable, and best of all, it lasts all day/night, so I didn't need to re-apply, so my 40ml bottle will last for ages!

Value

A 40ml bottle of Jimmy Choo is £39, a 60ml bottle is £49, and an 100ml bottle is £68 from most shops. These are all good prices for a perfume, but to save yourself money you should only get the 40ml bottle, after all it will last for ages.

Summary: A great perfume - too good to be true!
