Ghost Sweetheart Forever EDT, 50ml - £38.00
Ghost describe Sweetheart Forever as a captivating 'floriental' fragrance and that description is so on point. It is an 'Oriental Floral' fragrance with top notes of cassis, orange and lychee; middle notes of rose and white flowers and woody and oriental base notes (patchouli and vanilla). The EDT is floral and woody with a soft flowery accent as well. It is a very feminine and romantic scent and suitable for all ages. I like the fact that it is not overpowering; rather a clean and uplifting scent that is easy to wear. The lasting power is also good - around 5-6 hours for me which is not at all bad for an EDT, I feel. Overall, a lovely and refreshing Summer scent that would also make a lovely V-Day gift.
You can purchase the EDT from Boots. It is also available in a 30ml bottle which is priced at £27.00.
