BEAUTY // Elizabeth and James: Nirvana

Season's greetings!
I'm one of those people who finds a perfume they like and rarely gets anything else. I like having a signature scent that I wear every day. It's just the finishing touch. Unfortunately, I ran out of my favourite Lacoste Touch of Pink whilst in Van and to get a bottle of that in Canada costs an absolute fortune! I decided, upon the suggestion of one of the lovely girls in Sephora, to try a perfume I could only get out there. I ended up settling on the Nirvana fragrances and I am in love.

For me, it was love at first smell. The white edition is a really light, crisp scent which is pretty unique. It smells very similar to a high-end perfume that Sephora sell but is 1/3 of the price. It wears really well, and for quite a long time, which is fab for me where perfumes tend to last about 2 hours before fading completely. 

The black edition is much heavier but still is a suitable daytime perfume if you have the confidence to pull it off. It is darker, muskier and incredibly sexy. It has replaced my Valentino Rock & Rose Couture for the foreseeable future, that's for sure. 

Due to the cost of perfumes in Canada being pretty darn ridiculous (the full size 90 ml was $90 and oil around $50) I ended up getting both rollerballs because I couldn't choose just one. If I had unlimited money I'd have gotten the gorgeous Christmas gift sets which included the perfume and oil for $75 but that's a lot of money to spend (although I really wish I had done it now!). If you have a chance to smell these perfumes definitely pop into your local Sephora. They are absolutely stunning with fantastic staying power. I doubt I'll be straying away from them any time soon.

Have you tried Nirvana? What are your thoughts? Let me know!
