Review: Tom Ford Santal Blush Perfume

Last week I received Tom Ford's Santal Blush perfume as a very special present. I didn't think I would ever own a bottle of Tom Ford perfume, just because of the sheer ridiculous price tag. I always detour round the Tom Ford perfume counter to have a spritz when I'm walking through Duty Free, but that was always enough for me, knowing I'd never want to part with so much cash for a perfume. So I'm still a bit shell-shocked at being the owner of such an item! When I first tested it out earlier on this year, I thought it was the most perfect fragrance, and now that I actually own it, I still think its such a unique and gorgeous scent.

The Tom Ford website describes this perfume as 'Mesmerizing, Exotic and Mysterious' - I'd definitely agree with 'Exotic' because of its mixture of Sandalwood and Eastern Spices with Florals. It has a strong smell, but not too heavy or overpowering, like I find some Tom Ford perfumes to be. I think this perfume will work well in both summer and winter due to the combination of floral and spice. So far, I have only needed to spray once onto my neck and I have found that to be enough to last me the day. Using it so sparingly will hopefully mean the bottle lasts a long time too!! The colour of the perfume and shape of the bottle bottle, also look great on my dressing table.
