To be completely honest, Clarins has stayed pretty much under my radar for the past couple of years. It wasn’t a company which I though much about, relegating it as a brand geared more towards the more ‘mature’ client.

I would like to say how wrong I was. I have gone 0 – 60 with Clarins, from owning absolutely nothing to grabbing everything from lipgloss to body wash in a three month period. The products are super-high quality and way-luxurious!

I was lucky enough to get sent the 100ml bottle of Eau Dynamisante to sample and review, and I have to say – another score for Clarins. The unisex scent is described as featuring the essential oils of lemon, Patchouli, Ginseng and White Tea and it’s a fresh, pretty, and unusual choice.

I thought I would test it under some hard circumstances – an eight hour Dubai-London flight; and I have to say, the scent stayed with me for hours, and I’m pretty sure it’s the reason I didn’t have to carry my hand luggage off the plane!

The 100ml bottle retails for £29 from www.clarins.co.uk and here (US)
