I thought I?d let you know about a trendy little perfume, actually quite a little treasure that I have recently discovered.

Here goes, designed for the modern female, a deep blend of seductive scents, that gives you the feeling of freedom, there?s not many people that have it, it?s a young, vibrant, fashionable and fruity?? Am I selling it to you yet?


***AVAILABI 6;ITY ***
I purchased mine at Boots a 30ml parfum vaporisateur for the total sum of £23.00, although I have seen it available at discount perfume shops and over the internet at prices round about £5 lower. A definite bargain and money well spent.


***PRICE***
So all you guys, let me reassure you there is no need to start panicking, if your lady is demanding this little beauty, it?s not going to cost you am arm and a leg, and ladies the fella?s may be more easily swayed into buying you this little treat, at this reasonable price.
Boots currently have a Christmas gift package of Eau de parfum spray 50ml and Body lotion 200ml for £33.00
Ultra Violet Eau De Parfum Spray 50ml - £33
Ultra Violet Eau De Parfum Spray 30ml - £23
Ultra Violet Body Lotion 200ml - £22
So the Boots Christmas special is a very good buy, and is being added to my wish list this year.


***PACKAGIN 1;***
The 30ml Eau De Parfum Vaporisateur comes in a vibrant, metallic purple box (imagine the purple chocolate foil wrapping, well that?s the look) about 3.5 inches in height (about 9.5cm) and has a white band running centrally through the purple. On the top of the box the Paco Rabanne logo is embossed into the box.

The white band contains the name ?ULTRA 
6;
;IOLET?. About one third of the way down the box the ?Paco Rabanne? logo is printed in silver type, with a description of what is in the box imprinted below.

Overall, you could not fail to miss this box on a visit to your local perfume counter, it?s bright, attractive and I?ve still
not let you know what?s inside??.


***BOTTLE DESIGN***
Ooh Err Missus. This is a bit of an unusual one to try describing but I?ll give it a go.
It?s a clear glass ball, well more of an oval shape. And has a soft flexible piece of clear rubber in the middle, this compresses when the perfume is sprayed.

There is a solid silver metallic top, which doesn?t come off, you just twist to stop it spraying. Twist again and then push down on the rubber to spray and wallah!!! The ?Ultra Violet? name is written vertically across the metal top.


***PERFUME***
The perfume, you guessed it is a violet or lilac colour, but completely clear and visible through. It goes on lightly and doesn?t feel sticky or too moist and the bottles design manages to give a good all round spray. The perfume dries quickly and seems to be absorbed into the skin well. I personally have not had any irritation to it, so another thumbs up there.

Also the perfume lasts, one or two sprays before you go out and you smell adorable all night, the men circle you like prey all night and then you turn into a beautiful princess, yes and if you believe that well?????????????? It is long lasting and see?s the whole night through!


***SMELL***
Delicious, the smell is quite strong, don?t worry it is not too overpowering. It?s enigmatic and sensuous. Now I will admit I am not to good at identifying particular smells,
so if
I get it wrong sorry. It reminded me of the sensual oil fragrances that you can buy such as Sandal wood and it also has an oriental smell to it, but I can not quite place my finger on that. There was also a very light hint of vanilla, and I guess violets.

It?s more appropriate for evening wear, as it would be a little too much for the office, and your male colleagues may be swooning at your feet.


Ignore this bit if you want??.
***INGREDIE 8;TS***
Although completely useless as I guess
most of you who buy this wi
ll not be drinking or eating it, therefore you are not really bothered what?s in it, BUT I am going to tell you anyway???

Alcohol (well I guess there is some of us that may be divulging in a little bit of the swigging from the old perfume bottle, lol)

Fragrance (Parfum) ? You?d never have guessed?

Water (Aqua) ? wonder what that is????
Benzophenon-2 ? I have no idea what that is, but doesn?t sound edible!

Violet ? Guess that is where the name comes from!

Red 33 (CI 17200) ? Again doesn?t sound edible

There you go just in case you really wanted to know what you may be allergic to, or what is going to make you sick when you drink the perfume, or kiss it from your beloved?s neck, orrr


But it comes with a waning??
*CAUTION* ? This product is flammable! O.k, so it?s not suitable on bonfire night!!!


***RECOMMEN 8;ATION***
I would not hesitate to recommend Ultra Violet to anyone, well perhaps my granny might give it a miss.
10/10 for Ultra Voilet!



Thanks for the read, Stacie x
