Revlon Parfumerie Apricot Nectar Scented Nail Polish Review

The Revlon Parfumerie nail polishes have recently hit the shelves in Australia. They are something a little different as they are scented nail polishes and to be honest I haven't come across any drugstore scented polishes before. The range itself is very extensive and contains three categories; the Fruits & Florals, Sweets & Spices and the Freshes. I found it very difficult to pick only two to buy but eventually I decided and Apricot Nectar is one of the lucky ones that got to come home with me.

Apricot Nectar is from the Fruits & Florals section of the range and is a very pretty orange based peach creme that somehow manages to be a pastel bordering on neon.Does that even make sense? I found the first coat to be quite streaky but a second coat seemed to fix most of the problems. Next time I will probably go for three coats though because the drying time of this polish is so great that an extra coat is no worries.

When I was painting my nails the polish smelt very sweet and a bit fruity. The scent continued to hang around once my nails dried, even after washing. After a day of wearing the polish the scent is less noticeable. From reading other blogs I decided not to wear a top coat (as I had read that this might interfere with the whole scent thing). Without a top coat you can get 2-3 days of wear before tip wear starts to appear, which is pretty decent. Colour me impressed!

Apricot Nectar is a beautiful peachy orange creme polish with a good formula (although a little streaky), good drying time and is accompanied by a yummy sweet fruit scent that lasts days. Overall I really love this polish and can see myself wearing a lot.
