'Our Moment' a fragrance by One Direction...here are my thoughts about it.

'Our Moment' EDP 30ml $49.00 50ml $59.00 100ml $79.00 available from Myer from 26th August.

Ok ok settle down, put your undies back on One Direction have released a perfume....It was inevitable right?!
The campaign is an adorable black and white spoof of traditional fragrances and the bottle is so hideously cute it hurts. But I know you're all like 'Nella what does its smell like?' Here are the notes that the fragrance people told me are in 'Our Moment':

Top: Pink Grapefruit, Wild Berries & Red Currants
Mid: Jasmine Petals, Fresh Freesia & Frangipani
Dry: Creamy Musk, Sheer Woods & White Patchouli

So basically everything teenage girls love, if I was a 13 year old girl I would be spraying it on every 10 minutes and I would have thought it ruled my 13 year old girl world so hard. 'Our Moment' smells like teenage girls should without that sickly cheap lollie smell that some celebrity fragrances have. It is quite intensely fake floral but settles to a softer vanilla musk when it dries on the skin.

Would I wear 'Our Moment'......YES! Not everyday but during summer to the beach on a casual day it would be perfect nothing too intense. I am obsessed with the bottle though, pink tulle and a crown, its so cute, I hate it, I love it.

If you are a mother of a teenage girl who is begging for this perfume and you are scared your house is going to end up smelling so sickly sweet it gives everyone a headache, then fear not 'Our Moment' is subtle enough to not turn the whole house into smelling like a bath bomb.

If you love Diptyque Duelle, then you are not going to be into 'Our Moment' but if you like Marc Jacobs Daisy or Ellie Saab then I think you might have found your new favourite fragrance.

Bored of my review? Sorry here is a GIF of Harry and Zayn almost making out:

So anyway I was invited to the launch of 'Our Moment' and Michaela and I were VERY excited to pose with the life size 1D cut outs after 2 or 5 glasses of champagne....

Thank you to Sarah and Platnium MC Pr for inviting me to the launch.

Celebrity Fragrance : Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday

\

With the constant onslaught of gimmicky celebrity fragrances being launched recently - Lady Gaga's Fame the first black perfume?! Even Snooki has one. I have only just seen Nicki Minaj's newest offering 'Pink Friday' and as Nicki said “My fans are going to spaz out when they see this.” - I am totally spazzing out.

The bottle is completely incredible, I am assuming you take the wig off and the spray pump is underneath, this is cringingly cool. Also the actual liquid looks to be pink, take that Lady Gaga! Nicki describe 'Pink Friday' as “a celebration of my life at this moment; it is a reflection of me as a creator, and an expression of me as a woman,” LOL!

Because I haven't yet smelt 'Pink Friday' I will just regurgitate Nicki's description 'Fruit, vanilla and musk' hmmmmmm sounds sickenly sweet like most other celebrity fragrances.

With her own MAC Viva Glam lipstick and a collaboration with OPI (both of which I love!)  Nicki's fragrance is certainly not her first foray into the beauty industry and let's not hope it's her last.

I have no idea when 'Pink Friday' will launch in Australia but I am sure there will be a huge OTT stand to match the bottle in every major department store around Australia very soon.
