We love our girl crush, Ariana Grande so much that we asked one of our readers, Hayley Jade Brooke, to test Ari and Frankie by Ariana Grande – blindfolded! – and tell us what she thought of them. Here’s what she said…
Hayley Jade Brooke, blogger from London
ARI by Ariana Grande
Notes: sparkling fruits, musk, marshmallow
‘This is an instant energy boost. Just smelling it woke me up! It’s fruity and floral with a fizz. For me, it’s a day perfume and not for the evening. I’d wear it on holiday to the beach or when travelling. It’s really feminine, and as I have extra-girly taste, it suits me perfectly. It smells mostly of raspberry and lime, but it also makes me feel I’ve just walked into a sweet shop. It’s young and fun, and really makes me daydream of summer.’
FRANKIE by Ariana Grande
Notes: pear, apricot, wild orchid, sandalwood, sugar crystals
‘Oh, this is so fresh – wow! I’d wear it for a lunch or dinner with friends. It screams elegance, but it’s preppy, too, so I’m guessing this is a young fragrance. At first, I smell sweet fruits. Is it apricot or peach? After smelling it for a few minutes, it’s more musky and seductive. It’s taking me to a beach party in Marbella. I love it – it’s the type of perfume I’d smell on a friend and immediately go out and buy.’
