It's arrived; Burberry Body sample!

I got in from a pretty dull day at work yesterday to some excitement in the form of the Burberry Body sample!  I had waited quite a while to receive this after signing up to it thanks to a heads up from http://fleurdeforce.blogspot.com/ and I was actually beginning to think it was a hoax and that I would never actually receive it. I am so dramatic.
  I was also slightly disappointed that it was only a 4.5ml bottle rather than the 30ml that it said it would be but hey beggars can't be choosers =/ And the bottle is gorgeous, I would feel so classy whipping this out of my not so fancy Primarni bag and dabbing (there is a stopper rather than a spray pump) onto my wrists.
 Now, for the smell.  Am not actually quite sure if my vocabulary shall allow me to describe a scent to you in its full glory so here goes. . . When I first sniffed this scent from the bottle all I could smell was sweet sophistication but once applied and allowed to settle it turns quite musky but it's right in the middle of sweet and musky so a bit like a musky peach? That actually sounds more like something rotting in the fruit bowl.  It is very long lasting and so far everyone that has had a sniff has enjoyed!  The smallest bottle which is 30ml actually retails at £45 so no wonder they didn't give us a 30ml body but I would definitely recommend that you go out and have a whiff of this new perfume because it is really beautiful and anything that makes you even slightly comparable to Rosie Huntington-Whiteley has got to be good!  


Let me know if you have any lush perfumes you could recommend to me because I'm becoming a bit of a perfume whore lately; 3 perfumes in one month? Must. Stop.
