Revlon Parfumerie Polish!

I don't know about you but I love winter. Layering jackets and scarfs, the crisp leaves on the ground and occasionally the sprinkling of snow which then means curling up in front of an open fire with a cup of chai tea! Or at least thats what my winters were like before I moved up to Sydney, my chances of snow have been squashed into a big fat zero but that doesn't mean I can't still indulge in my winter rituals. One of which includes investing in a couple of new winter-esque nail polishes, so when I saw that Revlon had launched a Parfumerie line of polishes I knew that I needed to try them out. 

 

I decided to go with Wintermint and Wild Violets, both beautiful shades. Wintermint is an almost mermaid like green with teal and gold specks floating through. Although it brings back those childhood memories of cheap glitzy polish that came for free with your coveted magazines, there is definitely an air of elegance about Watermint. I think it's because the glittery tones are perfectly matched with minty polish and the gold specks just add another layer of sophistication! The fact that it smells like peppermint chocolates is just an added bonus. I would often get a whiff of it throughout the day and wonder where that gorgeous smell was coming from! It is a truly delightful polish.

 On the other hand Wild Violets is a really gorgeous deep purple but the smell is just a little off. Almost like something my Nanna would wear on a special occasion that has the odour of musty cupboard mixed with potpourri. Having said that it's not to overpowering and is definitely bearable, just don't get your fingers to close to your nose! Smell aside it is a very wearable polish with just the right amount of sparkle! The durability of the Parfumerie range is around 5ish days with a good topcoat! I've got my eye on a few other shades from the collection which are more spring-ey so I'll let you know how they go once they find their way to my eagerly awaiting hands!

What is your favourite shade of nail polish? Or are you as indecisive as me and have different colours for different seasons?
