Avril Lavigne's Forbidden Rose Perfume Review

An article about Avril Lavigne\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\'s perfume.

Avril Lavigne is a pop star, actress, and her latest venture includes lending her name to the long list of celebrities who have their own fragrances. When I heard that Avril was coming out with her fragrance "Forbidden Rose", I got very excited. For many years, I have been on a search for the best rose perfume. Sadly, Avril's attempt did not make the cut. In fact, it might have made my list of worst fragrances.

The bottle, however, is lovely. The bottle's shape reminds me a bit of a star. The bottle is purple with a silver ring for people with small fingers or who might be very young can wear. The bottle's top is appropriately a black rose. So, as far as the packaging and the bottle, it adds loveliness to my night stand. For me, the bottle will be the greatest asset. The bottle is a cross between edgy and beautiful much like Avril Lavigne herself.

The smell of the perfume is very disappointing to me. After reading and hearing numerous positive reviews, I was sure that it would be on my favorites list. I will be completely honest, I hate this smell. It reminds me of bathroom air fresher. If it were used primarily for that purpose, I guess I would not view it as terrible. As a fragrance, I do not want to smell like that day or night. I sprayed it on my hand to review the smell, and at this moment I am praying it soon fades away.

I got the 1.7 OZ bottle which I think will last me a decade. It retailed for about $40. The price and size might vary in range depending on where you buy the perfume. I got the Eau De Parfum which is a step below the strongest version. I wish that I had not bought this perfume, but lesson learned. I just assumed that I would like it without even smelling it first. I will never make that mistake again.

Avril Lavigne is an interesting artist with catchy songs but maybe for me she should stick to her day job this time. I am yet to smell her other perfume, I might like that one better. Everyone's taste are different, so make sure you smell it before you decide to love or hate the perfume.

The rose at least for me should have stayed forbidden.
