She praises its sweet, fruity, floral, boozy and woody notes, versatility, and ability to attract compliments, particularly as a date scent. Sephora is offering 20% off selected sizes, bringing the price to £22.40, although the fragrance may not suit people who avoid sweet scents.

Cheaper alternatives from Wisdom and Dr Dent’s are also highlighted at Boots and Amazon.

A discounted Kayali Vanilla 28 All Over Body Spray at Sephora is receiving strong praise from shoppers for its rich vanilla scent, affordability compared with the perfume version, and suitability for layering.

A reviewer tests the OK! Beauty Box Effortless Everyday Edit, finding it strong value at £8.99 and particularly praising the Delilah lip liner, the Warda hyaluronic acid serum, and the Commodity Milk Orchid fragrance.

While the tinted lip balm is less suited to the reviewer’s preferences, the overall selection is described as ideal for summer use and worth the price.
