We are even closer to Christmas and I can’t wait because it means I also get two weeks off from work. Over the last three days, I got two perfume samples and one full size perfume from the Paris Perfumes advent calendar.

Day 19 had a perfume sample of the Number 77, inspired by Armani’s Stronger With You, a men’s perfume. It was nice, but kind of forgettable. I used it because my husband doesn’t like to experiment with perfumes and I pulled it off because it’s not that strong of a scent.

Day 20 had the last full size perfume in the calendar. It was a 50 ml bottle of the Number 462, inspired by Armani’s My Way. It’s one of those ”rich smelling” perfumes, if you know what I mean. Top notes are bergamot and orange blossom, middle notes are jasmine and tuberose and base notes are cedar and white musk. It’s a nice floral perfume with a hint of woody notes which makes it great for everyday wear, for the office, you know the kind of perfume that is discreet enough that it doesn’t bother others but it’s still present enough so that it leaves a trace of perfume around you.

Day 21 had a sample of the Number 548, inspired by Ariana Grande’s Cloud. It’s a sweet, a gourmand smell with coconut and orchid notes and I do have to say I love it. I want to get the full size of this because apparently now I’m into gourmand perfumes.

The last three days of the advent calendar I know are two more samples and a room diffuser, so I’m curious to see what scent we will get for Christmas Eve.
