Korres Vanilla Cinnamon Shower Gel

Airports are where you come and go, and do a bit of shopping, obviously. I already spoke about my first purchase at Rhodes airport, but that perfume wasn't the only Korres item I bought. A shower gel that smells like Christmas in a bottle has to be something that I own in my life so I bought it.

As the name of this shower gel suggests it smells like cinnamon and vanilla (€10,80/250ml). Now I love these spicy festive scents. Especially when it's that time of the year, but any day is an appropriate moment to get that bottle out of the cupboard and take a hot relaxing cinnamony bath or shower. 
For a bath I don't find the scent that strong. Maybe if you squeeze the entire bottle in the tub that it will actually smell like a cinnamon stick, but I think that's a bit of a waist. And as the product is meant for showers I am not that surprised that this product works way better for showers than for baths. It does give the most amazing bubbles though!

After showering with this gel my entire skin smells like cinnamon and I love it. As I said before, I just love the scent all year round and if you are the same you will definitely fall head over heels in love with this. Not a massive fan of festive ginger cinnamon scents? No worry because Korres have a lot of other fruity scent too that I can't wait to try.

Korres Vanilla / Freesia / Lychee EDT

When my holiday to Greece came to an end I was really sad. Although flying still excites me, the return flight wasn't as fun as the week before. To make myself feel a bit better I always go and have a look in the airport shops. I already bought a huge bar of chocolate and a Korres Shower Gel but on my way to get a healthy juice I spotted another beauty store. I was actually looking for a cleanser from Clinique, but since that was nowhere to be seen I was stuck at the Korres counter, again. This time my eye fell on their perfumes. I took a whiff of all the scents and immediately fell in love with their Vanilla, Freesia and Lychee scent (€39,00/50ml). Since Korres is a Greek brand and it was tax free I bought it in a whim and together with my juice I felt a bit better about going to the cold, rainy Netherlands. At least I would smell nice.

The perfume comes in a pretty colourful box. It has a very chique bottle and a white lid. In my opinion black would've made it even better, but I have to leave some room for improvement right? And honestly for something that smells that good I don't care what it looks like.

There is a thing about the scent that I can't describe. It has that warm feeling that my Lancôme La Vie Est Belle and Chanel Coco Mademoiselle also have. A few spritzes and I will smell it the entire day. Even when I have nothing to wear and I am in a rush and basically just grab whatever is on the floor -I know so bad!- I still smell the Eau de Toilette on my clothes.

In the end I have nothing bad to say about this gorgeous perfume. It might not be your thing but scents are personal after all. Sometimes you like something and sometimes you don't. For me this will definitely be a reason to come back to Greece. I can get it here as well, but it's cheaper in Greece and I finally have a good excuse to book another trip to that sunny country.
