Of all the beauty items I love, perfume is one of the ones I can’t live without. It can instantly lift your mood, boost your confidence and give you a hit of nostalgia all in one quick spray, and it can instantly make you feel put together, even if you’re wearing the same jumper for the third day in a row.
Of all the perfumes I’ve owned and tried in my time as a beauty writer, some of my all-time favourites hail from Liberty. The brand’s LBTY fragrance line contains five different perfumes, and there’s two in particular that I will never stop buying – and they currently have more than £30 off in an early Black Friday sale.

Usually each fragrance will set you back £225, but right now they’re discounted to £191.25, saving you £33.75. Whilst they are a splurge (they’re a luxury line, after all) they’re more than worth their money as one tiny spray will quite literally last you all day. I’ve spritzed one on in the morning and still been able to smell it by the time I got into bed without needing a single top up, so you know a 100ml bottle is going to last you forever.
Everything from the scent to the packaging looks, feels and smells expensive, with the perfume bottles themselves housed in a gorgeous square glass bottle with a top covered in a signature Liberty print which inspired the perfumes’ various scents. In fact the boxes they come in are so pretty I’ve kept those too!
My two favourite scents from the brand are Hera Reigns and Vine Thief, both of which have quite different but distinctive scents.
Hera Reigns

Faith Richardson)Touted as “a scent for the opulent yet adventurous spirit”, this perfume is spicy, musky and floral, and the perfect choice if you like fragrances that don’t smell too sweet or feminine. It settles on your skin nicely and changes throughout the day, and has a lovely warmth to it that feels luxurious. I prefer this for evenings, as it feels more sultry and smokey.
Top Notes: Pink pepper
Heart Notes: Jasmine, gardenia
Dry Down: Cypriol, olibanum, oud natureprint, wood leather
Vine Thief
Image:
Faith Richardson)Perfect for adding a little luxury to your daytime, Vine Thief is a “scent for the enchanting and indulgent”. It’s slightly lighter and sweeter than Hera Reigns, and has much brighter, fresher notes that each come into play at different points throughout the day. It very much gives a rich mysterious auntie vibe, and I love it.
Top Notes: Strawberry liquor, orris absolute
Heart Notes: Labdanum, leather accord, clearwood
Dry Down: Skin musk, vanilla, condensed milk
