The slimming student

My name is Alice, and I'm a student at Aberystwyth University. I've recently joined slimming world in order to lose the weight I have gained since attending, and to offer my own experience and recipes to others like me. I'm also looking for any way of saving money on the things I love, and these will also be shared on this blog.

Discovery Club 7 review

My Fragrance shop Discovery club box arrived a couple of days ago, and I am ecstatic about this box. This quarter there are 7 fragrances, 5 for women and 2 for men.

The boxes are a subscription service, one that you can cancel any time, and costs only a fiver. There is always at least 5 fragrances, and I have loved the 3 boxes I received so far. Anyway, onto box 7!

The fragrances:

Female:
Prada Candy Florale - 1.5ml, £2.13 (based on 30ml bottle at the fragrance shop)
Agent Provocateur Fatale - 2ml, £2.33 (based on 30ml bottle at the fragrance shop)
Givenchy Dahlia Divin - 1ml, £1.48 (based on 30ml bottle at the fragrance shop)
Paco Rabanne Lady Million Eau My Gold - 1.5ml, £1.33 (based on 50ml bottle at the fragrance shop)
Ghost Eclipse - 2ml, £1.63 (based on 30ml bottle at the fragrance shop)

Male:
Lacoste Live - 2ml, £1.42 (based on 40ml bottle at the fragrance shop)
Givenchy Gentlemen Only Intense - 1ml, £0.94 (based on 50ml bottle at the fragrance shop)

That's £11.26 of perfume for the £5 subscription price, so I'm certainly happy, and some of my favourite perfumes were included. Alongside that, as always, they have included a £5 off voucher for each of the perfumes except for the Gentlemen Only Intense, which has a £10 voucher.

I'm a lover of Ghost, their enchanted bloom perfume is my current everyday scent, and so a chance to not only have a sample of Eclipse, but a fairly large one, is fantastic. It's a delicious scent and one I was already thinking about purchasing.
All of the other samples are interesting, Eau My Gold is a new favourite and the Fatale looks like it's going to be a fantastic one.

As for the male samples, they've been thrown into my gift/boyfriend box. I'm using these samples, specifically the ones I don't like, as add on gifts to birthday presents and such if they seem like ones my friends like. It's become a little calling card for my gifts, and everything I give now smells fantastic.

I am going to be documenting all of my perfume samples, and will possibly be reviewing each of these in the future, on another page. I have a large selection of perfume samples, from the one-use samples you find in magazines to the 1-2ml samples from this service and others.
