Melvita Nectar de Roses Body Collection

Melvita have got an amazing collection due to launch called the Nectar de Roses Body Collection and if like me you love the scent of fresh roses, then this is right up your street. 

Melvita Nectar de Roses Body Collection

The range combines three wild roses, including wild rose extract, a new active ingredient that's known to activate skin hydration by increasing aquaporin synthesis to stimulate moisture circulation. There are four products within the range and I have been using them all for the last few months and I have to say, the scent is just stunning.

Nectar de Roses Rose Petal Shower Gel(£13) is a beautiful fresh scented gel, which is not too thick in texture but is one which does transform into a foam and is incredibly hydrating and moisturising on the skin.  When combined with the Nectar de Roses Hydrating Body Veil (£15) the scent is one which lingers on the skin. The body veil is enriched with rose floral water to provide intense hydration for up to 24 hours. As a formula it is really luxurious when applied to the skin, as soon as it comes into contact, it absorbs leaving behind a lovely rose scent, one which I associate with freshly cut roses, it is just divine.

You can never have too many balms and the Nectar de Roses (£10) is a balm everyone needs. As multi-purpose balm it can be applied to dry skin, cuticles, lip and even the ends of your hair. It is balm that melts on contact with your fingers, the pot within which it comes, is so cute and dainty that there is just enough room for two fingers to swipe the balm for using. I adore this balm, the rose scent isn't as strong as it is within the other products within this range, but it is there.

The final item in this range is the stunning Rose Sauvages Eau de Toilette (£36). This perfume combines the three wild roses rosa canina, rose gallica and rose mosqueta with woody base notes of the leaves and it is a beautiful floral scent which reminds me slightly of Johnson's Baby Lotion at a first sniff but as it settles on the skin, the scent of the three roses come to life and make for such a perfect spring fragrance which is light, not overly heavy and dominating but one which is long lasting.

For me this is a collection for everyone of all ages. It is purse friendly and just stunning and if you are looking for a little something for Valentines Day that combines the scent of roses rather than buying the roses, well this ticks all the boxes.
