Hi girls
If you don't know I can tell you that for one and a half year ago I didn't own any perfumes. The reason for this is that my father is very allergic and gets problems with his breathing being in a room with a person wearing perfume or maybe only washed her clothes with a perfumed product - and if he has this problems he gets really angry and gets very unpleasant. I take perfume allergies very seriously and as long as I visited home once per week I kept away from it to spare him. One and a half year ago I moved far away from home and now see my father few times a year. I wanted to experience what was so amazing about scents as I've always lived in a neutral home for that matter, and I got hooked cause smells are amazing. If I want to visit my parent I don't use anything with perfume in it for a week before, then he will not have a problem, but it means that every visit I really have to plan.
This don't mean anything to me right now as it's going to be a long time before I see him again because of a argument.

My style in perfumes at winter is sweet spices, warm, powdery, some flowers, but I despise soapy scents
All are eau de parfum and common brands, mostly because I can't afford expensive perfumes and are so greedy that I don't want one quality perfume but want a quantity of nice perfumes, so I have a scent for every mood. And I like small sizes, don't need a 50 ml perfume either cause I will never use it up because I use all so frequently. That said my five picks for this blogpost is not all I wore this winter at all, but they are my winter recommendations:)
My favorite perfumes of the wintertime is:
The Body Shop "Brazil Nut" and "Chocomania", Avril Lavigne "Wild Rose", Mariah Carey "M", Naomi Campbell "At Night".
The cozy one:
The Body Shop "Brazil Nut" - this is a really warm scent amazing as it sounds, but it does make you feel warm and cozy almost like burned almonds they sell on the street in Denmark every winter. I actually bought this just before fall and even for summer when it is warm this is a really pleasant smell I think. I was crazy about this in the fall, I almost didn't use anything else. Do you live close to a body shop and don't know this scent you must hurry! It smells nutty and natural but its a nice scent I smell on me all day on my wrists, but because it is so natural I don't find the scent overpowering at any point. This is really one of my all time favorites. And cheap<3
The eatable one:
The Body Shop "Chocomania" - This smells of chocolate but on me the smell changes a bit and fades much away. What I like about it is when I put in on, then it is very nice but i wish it lasted longer as the scent smells first. It don't smell quite as natural as "Brazil nut", and it has an undertone of something else I don't really find that pleasant, maybe actually a little strong citrus. I wish it was more balmy. Something I have found to be a fact for The Body Shop is that theirs perfume lines can smell different in the products, for an example I always find their Body Butters with more obvious perfume scents instead of the scent clean. I also own a Lip Butter and a Beautifying Oil with the chocomania scent, and the Beautifying Oil smells just as I wanted this to. But I didn't wanted to put a product with another purpose than perfume in this post, just wanted to point this fact out. I do like the scent and the perfume of this range. For the summer I will buy the coconut and maybe the raspberry and vanilla.
The sweet one:
Avril Lavigne "Wild Rose" - is not a rose scent if you ask me, if it was I would not like it:) This is more of a sweet candy scent with a little citrus but still balmy and pleasant in my opinion. I actually have two of these 15 ml bottles, one at home and one at my boyfriends home, and the bottle there is almost half empty, so i use this a lot. This is one of the perfumes I for some time meant was a possible signature perfume for me. It works well with my skin, lasts a good while. Besides that the bottle is my favorite perfume bottle, some may find it stupid but I love it.
You can read about the notes here
The individual one:
Naomi Campbell "At Night" - This is a perfume that smells amazing from the bottle but on me smells very different on my skin, but still totally amazing. I have no idea how I should describe this. First when sprayed it has citrus scents but that changes and it gets more and more sweet and balmy, a little soapy but in a clean and simple way, and then it lays flat on the skin for many hours in a very subtle, simple and still sweet, balmy way but maybe also a little flowers. It smells sweeter from the bottle than on my skin but its a really pleasant day perfume in my head. If you think of buying this i recommend to try a tester on your hand and test it the whole day to experience it before buy. I also can link to the notes here but I don't agree in the notes placing chosen by people, but the company's note pyramid is what I experience more or less.

The next two perfumes is the first ones I've ever bought. It was at a sale and both was in boxes without any tester, so I gambled because of the great offer and got both for 200 DKK. Happily I liked them very much:P
The sexy one:
Mariah Carey "M" - This is a strong scent compared to the others, it don't look like I used it much but i did, with this scent you just only needs two sprays. It is smokey and sexy and at the same time has some sweetness and balmy over it. I've not used this a long time, maybe because it is what I will call a night scent and i never bring it if I'm going somewhere later because I'm stupid, but it is great and I love it.
The individual one:
Naomi Campbell "At Night" - This is a perfume that smells amazing from the bottle but on me smells very different on my skin, but still totally amazing. I have no idea how I should describe this. First when sprayed it has citrus scents but that changes and it gets more and more sweet and balmy, a little soapy but in a clean and simple way, and then it lays flat on the skin for many hours in a very subtle, simple and still sweet, balmy way but maybe also a little flowers.
