To this day I can't believe that I'm still religiously writing this blog lol. Oh, by the way this is just going to be something random. To be honest, I started this blog just to have fun, I wanna learn how to blog, as you know... I'm pretty much, always curious about how things work. And somewhat I enjoy writing, not necessarily anything poetry, just work my fingers above the keyboard really. So, I just scrolled to my oldest post and it was in 2010! Like, what? Has it been five years already? Even I'm amazed. So I guess I've turned this blog into a reviewing blog slash personal diary. As random as it sounds, to be honest I'd like to thank my younger self. Regardless whether anyone reads it. I used to write diaries when I was a preteen-teenager (I wonder where those diaries are now? Hmm... I think they're in the attic, and probably will be rediscovered years from now, I hope I won't faint of embarrassment rereading them, lol), not everyday , but just on

If you're a perfume junkie like I am, curiosity becomes your frenemy. Sure it’s fun smelling all there is out there and be surprised with all the possibilities of smell perfume offers you. But sometimes you just got too caught up with the reviews and well, you either buy blind them or get their cheap dupes or fakes! I've been there to be honest and I am not proud! If I could give you any advice is, DON'T buy the dupes! Even if the bottles look dazzling, you're curious bla-bla-bla, just don’t. Based on personal experience, having around 8 bottles (most of them are 100ml) perfume dupes, make a great room decoration, but that’s all there is to it! Do I wear them? Only a few times after I buy them, but as long as I can remember I’ve let them sit on my vanity for as long as they can. Why don’t I just wear them? Good question! 1. They don’t last, 2. They don't smell like the original (of course they don’t), 3. It never feels the same like wearing the original ones, 4

This perfume became a hit since its release in 2004. Aside of it being by Britney Spears' , I have to say that as a celebrity this perfume, this fragrance doesn't disappoint. According to Fragantica: 'The composition is based on the notes of white flowers surrounded with vanilla and musk nuances. It opens with fresh lotus, mouthwatering pear and magnolia. The intensive floral heart is composed of tuberose, jasmine and pink cyclamen. The sensual base is composed of musk, vanilla and precious woods' Curious is a girly, fruity-sweet, fun, fresh, clean, happy and a young smelling scent. It has a fruity-floral sweetness (no citrus) to it which is quite nice and throughout wearing it, it's not cloying. To my nose, the noticeable notes are jasmine and pear. And as it tones down the vanilla, musk and woody notes starts to settle in. As far as I can say, it's got this 'typical celebrity scent' (I don't know but I guess celebs are into sweet scents),
