Fragrance Review : Justin Bieber Girlfriend

Fragrance Review : Justin Bieber Girlfriend

UK National Release Date: 20th August 2012
The Perfume shop Release Date: 5th August 2012

One of the perks of my job is that I often get to smell fragrances before
they are released and yesterday I was lucky enough to smell the new Justin Bieber Girlfriend.

His first fragrance 'Someday' was released last year and to be honest I am not a fan. It is very heavy and smells like sweets, characteristics that may appeal to some but not me. I was pleasantly surprised by the latest addition to the Bieber franchise, its a definite improvement.

Top notes of the new scent include Apricot and Orange blossom, I warn you now if you do not like the smell of apricot you will not like this perfume it is a very prominent note! Heart notes include Pear and Mandarin and base notes are comprised of vanilla and musk. My first impression was that the fragrance smelt like a tin of peaches in syrup. It is a lot lighter than his debut scent which is a big plus for me but it is still very sweet and fruity.

I would recommend 'Girlfriend' to young girls looking for their first fragrance as the sweet notes are more likely to appeal to a young nose. Fans of DKNY Be Delicious and Boss Orange may also like this scent. It Only comes in EDP (Eau de parfum) and starts at £24 RRP for a 30ml coming in at about £1 more than his first scent. It is available in three different sizes 30ml, 50ml and 100ml.

This is not one I am going to rush out to buy and I hate the bottle (its like a plastic slinky) but it is defiantly an improvement on his first scent. Hope you have found this review useful,
