Yesterday I received an online purchase I had made from Boots
In the parcel was a tiny phial of perfume , a brand called Mui mui.
Of course I sprayed instantly, what an error.
First, it is so wonderful I wish I had kept it for a special occasion but of course I didn’t know it would be love at first smell.
Second, I made the mistake of googling the price .
It cost more, even for the 30ml than I spend on food for myself for 2/3 weeks and no way could I justify spending that much on scent.
However I do know what I shall be smelling of when the Premium Bonds come up with the Million in a couple of weeks.

You may find a smell-alike on Perfume Parlour, though if it’s new they may not have a copy yet.

Bought myself a 7.5ml tiny bottle of this to try and broke the lid/stopper on the first use so it's stood with a toothpick in the top. To stop it evaporating and because I could hardly smell it I've been 'splashing it all over', applied the last of it today and my husband says 'Ooh that's a nice smell' typical of him to notice it when I run out 🙄
