What do you get me if you need to get me a present? A bottle of fragrance of course. That’s how I got my hands on a bottle of Hugo Dark Blue by Hugo Boss.

Here’s everything you need to know, including that crucial smell test.

That can be woody, fresh, citrus, floral and more. But there’s another way fragrances can be categories, that is by colour.

A blue fragrance is quite a popular term, but what does it mean.
I’m going to go into what is a blue fragrance, and what are the best blue fragrances you can buy right now.
These are the scents that will have you smelling amazing!

One of my favourite shows on Amazon is back for 2024, it’s Clarkson’s Farm series 3.
It feels like such a long time ago since the first series, but here we are, now into the 3rd instalment of the series. It was released on Friday 3rd May where 4 episodes have been dropped on Amazon Prime Video, with 4 more coming next Friday, 10th May.
If you like the show you’ll know what to expect, but here’s some info from episode 1 of series 3 with no big spoilers. As Amazon say, It’s The Pig One.

There have been a few more in between, and I have owned a some of them. Here’s a look at what I own, and everything you need to know about them.
