"It is stylish, sexy & uplifting. The price is always great for the quality & I hope that Amazon continues to find stockists so I can continue to wear my favourite scent for years to come!"
However, the longevity was criticised by one shopper in a three-star review that read: "Nice fragrance but it doesn't have the staying power I was hoping for. It is not a heavy scent & is nice for the summer."
But another happy shopper added: "I love the flowery fragrance of the perfume; I have used it several times over the years. It is long-lasting."

Corrie star on toll of role - 'It's taken me a long time to have thick skin'
Thrown into the spotlight in Coronation Street as Lauren Bolton, Cait Fitton reflected on the toll her soap role has had as she admits she sometimes struggles with the fame. She's been a regular face on the cobbles since 2022, but Cait Fitton admits that she's had to prepare herself for the tougher aspects of soap fame. Cait Fitton has recently teased that peace on the cobbles won't last long for her Coronation Street alter ego, Lauren Bolton. 'She's at a really stable point of her life. She has a job at the Rovers behind the bar and she's learning the craft,' Cait says, 'She's trying to build relationships. That's where the party comes in.' What begins as a chance to let loose quickly spirals into disaster for Lauren. The chaos kicks off when Aadi (Adam Hussain), nudged by Bernie (Jane Hazlegrove), throws a midsummer party. Lauren turns up alongside Summer, Nina and Brody. But things take a dark turn when Brody, played by Ryan Mulvey, starts dealing LSD at the party. 'Lauren doesn't even know what is going on,' Cait says, 'She has anxiety over whether or not she should even be there because she doesn't know anybody apart from Betsy. She seems out of place, though she tries her best to fit in.' Then, she accidentally takes the drug. 'She has a traumatic experience with it,' Cait says, 'We see a side of her that we haven't seen for months. Her trauma is going to affect her future. It's going to be a rollercoaster. Everybody at that party - their lives are going to be changed. I don't know how she'll go through it.' Disney+ drops to £1.99 in rare deal Netflix and Amazon can't beat Cait says she enjoys the intensity of her soap scenes. But while she's thriving as Lauren, Cait acknowledges the emotional toll her role can take. 'It's taken me a long time to have thick skin, it's not an overnight process,' she says. 'We are normal people outside of filming, but everyone sees the characters as actual people. That can be really hard, especially with Lauren, who is a complex character.' she's lost her boyfriend and confidant Max Turner, played by Paddy Bever, after his arrest and imprisonment for arson. 'It's been really hard without Paddy,' Cait says. 'My journey started with him and his time ended with me. It was strange to wrap my head around doing scenes without him. I miss working with Paddy.' Still, the pair remain close. 'I am in touch with him,' she says, 'We're both very busy, but we do catch up. We are in need of an in-person catch-up soon.' In Paddy's absence, Lauren's found a new on-screen ally in Betsy Swain, played by Sydney Martin - and Cait couldn't be more grateful. 'Sydney has a beautiful aura to be around,' says Cait. 'She's so positive and the best person to go to for advice. I had that with Paddy but being with a girl who is the same age as you is different. We clicked straight away. We're always looking for each other at work. She's like my home.' The pair share creative moments together - they've even lined up a pottery date. But Cait has also benefitted from the support of multiple other co-stars, from Roy Cropper actor David Neilson to Alison King, aka Carla Connor.

Youtuber gets kicked out of famous Glasgow takeaway while trying to crown city's 'worst dish'
Konstantin, known as Kon, has nearly 1.4 million subscribers on the platform and has previously worked with stars like the Sidemen and KSI. A Youtuber got kicked out of one Glasgow's most famous takeaways after taking to the streets to crown the city's "worst-rated dish". Konstantin, known as Kon, has nearly 1.4 million subscribers on the platform and has previously worked with stars like the Sidemen and KSI. Earlier this month he shared the video entitled "I Tried Glasgow's WORST RATED Takeaways". The social media star and a friend headed out to order the dishes customers have complained about most in online reviews. The duo then said they would decide for themselves which of the city's takeaways offered the worst rated food in a bid to find their "unlucky winner of Glasgow's worst dish". The clip, which since being posted on June 3 has over 70k views, sees the pair head to some surprisingly well-known and popular spots, including Blue Lagoon and Chunky Chicken on Sauchiehall Street. Giving each a fair pop with the meals, the pair offer some fair scores and only really criticise the service at a poorly-rated KFC (with an average 2.8 stars) over a misunderstanding to do with the water. Heading to the Blue Lagoon at Central Station, they try the chips and new sausage éclair - which Kon says has TikTok viral potential - and describe the chips as "mid", while the pair aren't impressed by the deep-fried Mars Bar but that seems to be more to do with the concept than the dish itself. They mainly complained about the pricing at the city centre fave in the end. In fact, across the board, Kon stated he was surprised that none of the restaurants they tried were anywhere near as bad as the impression given by some of the reviews they'd come across online. Konstantin said: "I thought, oh yeah there'd be more like foods that are going to be gross, they're going to be disappointing, but everything has just been like bang average."

He may have spoken too soon, however, as the music video producer then went on to really dislike the pizza from a local Indian, which you can see in the video above. After trying out food from a poorly-rated Chinese while sitting at a bus stop in Govan – which they were actually surprised by and gave a good review to – they headed to the now famous Best Kebab in the city centre. Appearing to be closed at 4pm, they had to wait until night time to go back for their kebabs. However, after being stared down by who they believed was the owner, they end up in an altercation - and after they beat a hasty retreat, they gave it zero stars as they weren't able to actually buy any food.
