Fragrance Friday – Bobbi’s Party

Fragrance Friday – Bobbi’s Party

Yay for Friday! How are you guys celebrating the start of the weekend? Im celebrating by wearing Bobbi’s Party, Eau de Parfum from Bobbi Brown. I’ve reviewed this fragrance before and I still absolutely love it! It’s actually the ideal in-between-seasons kind of fragrance for a day like today, when it’s technically “Autumn” but feels a bit like late Spring outside! If you’re a regular here on StyleScoop, you’ll know that I have an obsession with fragrances and that I also have quite a few in my little collection. I’d say at least 50 bottles. None of them smell anything like Bobbi’s Party. It’s a long lasting scent so a little goes a long way! Love, love, love it! Perfect for day or night, Bobbi’s Party reminds me of jasmine, and features a rich bouquet of violet leaves, rose petals and sandalwood that add to it’s sophistication. The bottle is plain and simple to match this fuss free, unique fragrance. If I had to sum it up, I’d say Bobbi’s Party reminds me a bit of champagne – so, I guess the name is perfectly suited after all!
