  • Is This A Snow Fairy Scented Air Freshener Spray?

    The fragrance Snow Fairy by LUSH, is such a popular scent. It’s been the centre of many duped products including Treacle Moon’s Frosted Candy Angel Shower and Bath Gel. What I haven’t found much of is this scent in home fragrance products on the high street. Surely it would make sense for your home to get the chance to smell like this and not just the body? So when I spotted Airpure’s Ice Queen Air Freshener Spray I had to see if it was similar in smell. So what is it like?

    Packaging

    I quite like how Airpure package their air freshener sprays. This is quite short and chunky in regards to it’s canister. The spray function is a big trigger lever which makes using this very easy and simple. Most of this is coloured pink, which already is quite eye catching. Other than that it’s very practical but simple in design.

    Fragrance

    This smells pretty much like the packaging says it smells of, which is bubblegum, pear drops and candy floss. I would probably say the pear drop side is the thing that comes through more. But overall this just smells like a mix of sugary, fruity sweets without being sickly.

    Strength & longevity

    Spraying this, it comes out at as medium in strength. Anything stronger I think would be too heady. It lingers quite well and longevity is very similar to other brands of room sprays I’ve used before. It doesn’t last forever, but does provide a short term burst of fragrance. Great when used against smells you don’t want to smell, so overall a decent home fragrance product.

    Price

    £1.25 for 250ml from Home Bargains. Fair price, not expensive and considering this is a dupe, I actually think is good value. You can also buy this online direct from Airpure for £1.49.

    Does it smell like Snow Fairy?

    I think it does! It’s not identical but similar, as it has the key notes of Snow Fairy. If you love Snow Fairy as a scent, you will enjoy this!

    As a product it does what its supposed to do which is provide fragrance, and it does it well. The fact it smells similar to Snow Fairy means if you like that scent from LUSH or you like sweet scents, definitely worth a buy!

  • Glade’s Limited Edition Festive Honey & Chocolate Aerosol

    Each season has scents that’s associated to them. Spring scents seem to be light florals and fresh and clean smells. Summer is fruity and tropical. But autumn and winter scents are the types of fragrances that give a room or home an invisible hug. One of the newer home fragrance products I’ve picked up recently has been Glade’s Limited Edition Festive Honey & Chocolate Aerosol from Home Bargains. Was this a good buy or disappointing?

    Packaging

    This aerosol/room spray comes in the typical cylinder, tall, room spray canister most products like this come in. What actually caught my attention of this product was the label on this. Very autumnal colours in browns and gold, with a great illustration of the actual fragrance. You look at it and you can imagine what the scent smells like and you really want to try it out.

    Fragrance

    This is the best bit! There’s definitely a hit of honey in this, mixed in with spices that gives it warmth and depth. There’s also some form of woody notes in this making sure that that the sweetness of this scent isn’t sickly. Is there chocolate in this? A little. I get that sort of chocolate-esq note to it, but it’s not the dominant part. Overall, this is beautiful. Cosy, warming and a very perfume like fragrance rather than a room spray.

    Strength & longevity

    When I first used this the hit of fragrance was there. What I didn’t like was this doesn’t linger. I want it to linger and be long lasting. The kind of fragrance this is it starts off well but doesn’t stick around. So strength could be better but longevity even more so.

    Cost

    Only £1.49 for 300ml which is a decent price for a well known home fragrance brand.

    Despite the fact I would love this to be punchier I still would buy this again! The scent is impressive. And if I want to smell it more I will just spray more! Could it be better? Yes. But do I love it? Yes! So if you love this type of fragrance for your home, I would recommend it. It’s affordable, it also comes in other forms such as a candle, and it’s perfect for this time of year.
