I always love Uves Saint Laurent perfumes and this perfume is no different. I absolutely love like this perfume! Packaging The bottle is not a regular shape for a perfume bottle but nevertheless is very well designed. As this perfume is very feminine the packaging echoes this. The bottle itself with the perfume in appears pink witha chunky goldd swivel top and gold writing on the bottle itself. The bottle can't be really placed upright on a table as it is irregularly shaped yet it still is designed and packaged well really pretty looking with a gold top. Scent This perfume is very feminine and is perfect to wear in the day as ...  Read the complete review

As you may or may not know, I recently spent a week sunning myself on the French Riviera. I had an amazing time - sun, sea, sand (well, pebbles, but at least I didn't get sandy knickers), cheap alcohol (have equipped myself with some Absinthe - ooh I'm so classy!!), and of course, perfume!

Despite this first impression, I decided to spray my wrist for testing and was pleasantly surprised. The most outstanding ingredient of "Baby Doll" is grapefruit, mixed with other fruity scents like red currant, peach and rhubarb. It also contains the sweet-smelling oil of roses and freesias, balanced with a spicy hint – but only a hint – of ginger, ...  Read the complete review

A beautiful distinctive fragrance from YSL. This perfume has lovely heady fruit notes and is sweet. Notes: Grapefruit, sweet tones of jasmine and vanilla. The main impression is of a sweet grapefruit that does not change notably with the drydown. Application: best used sparingly as the sweet grapefruit is very strong. You are likely to hear compliments if you put on more than two puffs, but it gets overwhelming very quickly. Definitely one for the evenings. Bottle: Distinctive design. However does not stand on its own and the applicator can be a little flimsy and break apart with use. Conclusion: beautiful distinctive ...  Read the complete review
