Secret Scent Box – August 2021

Perfume is a very personal thing, and it can be both difficult and expensive figuring out what kind you like. If you enjoy discovering and wearing scent, the Secret Scent Box is the terrific way to try out a huge range of different perfumes. Every month you get three 5ml bottles though the letterbox, plus guidance notes.

Inside the box, which fits through the letterbox, you have your three little spray vials plus scent note cards for each one.

Dolce & Gabbana – Pour Femme

This is a classic that was first launched in the 90s. With fruity and sweet top and middle notes, plus a warm base of the vanilla, it’s a truly feminine scent that remains fresh and young. It’s a pleasure to wear and works at any time of the year.

Moschino – Pink Bouquet

I think the pink name of this fragrance is perfect, as smelling it does indeed bring to mind pinkness! While there are floral notes I think it’s fruitiness, almost candy sweetness that really is the strongest thing. It’s a fun scent, but I think it’s mostly suitable for young women.

Vyrao – I Am Verdant

This brand new perfume is billed as unisex, though I think it errs slightly more on the masculine side. Though that’s not a bad thing, and it can certainly be worm by women. It’s intensely green in fragrance, the bergamot comes though strongly with a spicy freshness with a tiny hint of citrus. After a time it becomes slightly softer and you get a hint of the floral base notes, but overall this is a real zingy and energetic blend.

 

Our score: 9.8/ 10

I don't think I could choose a favourite between the Vyrao and the D&G. They are completely contrasting and can be worn in such different ways, but I really like having the option between sweet and fresh depending on mood. I'm less keen on the Moschino, as I find it a little bit to sweet and girly, but it's still nice to have the opportunity to see how it develops. I certainly wouldn't have considered something like the Vyrao before, but having discovered it I'm really very pleased. This is the best thing about Secret Scent, because it really opens up your experience with fragrances.
