Rated 5 out of 5 by from No1 all the way. I have a great story for this perfume. I got a few samples of this perfume from the very beginning i absolutely love it. I live in Nottingham. I knew that the Liz Earle company were opening in John Lewis in Nottingham at some point. So every time I went to town I would get my husband to park in the Victoria Centre car park near the entrance to the John Lewis lifts. We would go straight to the beauty floor so I could look. 👀 On the first time we don’t go straight to John Lewis to look 👀. Liz Earle was open. lol just my luck. So while we were in WHSMITHS I was standing near a lady. Then all of a sudden I could smell Liz Earle. I looked at my husband and said. “I can smell Liz Earle, we need to go to John Lewis now” So we did. Yep it was all there the wonderful smells that the Liz Earle products make. I bought a few items then I was given samples of the no1 perfume. It’s beautiful. To me the No1 perfume is the absolute mixture of all the products that you make. We have an autistic child. Things can get a little tense when you live with and autistic person. When I start to get trigger because of my son behaviour. I take myself out of the way spray No1 and sit for 10 to 15 minutes quietly and just breath. It truly helps with that. I love all products from the Liz Earle company. Bar 1 and that the lip balm. It’s not the texture it’s the taste. That’s not for me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Brighten your day I have bought this perfume regularly since it was first produced by Liz Earle. It is such a lovely refreshing mixture of floral and citrus scents. Every morning it brightens my day and lifts my spirits. It has a light fragrance that warms gently on your skin and is a beautiful way to start a day.

What is the shelf life on the perfumes, unopened and open?.

Asked by: Ma126
I keep perfume in its box and in the dark/ cool. I have found this particular fragrance has lasted well once opened and continues to smell amazing for a year or more. I’ve usually finished the bottle by then so it may be much longer. I can’t comment on how long it last unopened.

Do you do fragrance samples to purchase before buying a full sized bottle as I find perfumes very hard to buy!

Asked by: Katherine Nicholls
Hi, thanks for getting in touch. Unfortunately, we don't have samples of our Botanical Essence to send to customers. We used to have 2ml vials, but they were getting damaged in transit, so we have stopped including these with our customers orders. You will find our counters in all large Boots and John Lewis stores, where an advisor will allow you to try any products at the counter, and may be able to provide you with a small sample. You will also find a brief description of our Botanical Essence here on our website https://www.lizearle.com/content/find-your-perfect-botanical-essence.html Alternatively, it may help you to know, that we have a generous 60 day returns policy should you find any products unsuitable and need to return them to us for a refund https://www.lizearle.com/help-centre/customer-centre/returns-and-refunds/returns-and-refunds.html We hope this information helps - The Customer Care Centre Team

Is this the new No 1 perfume with different ingredients? 

Asked by: Chris17
Hi there, thanks for getting in touch. We have maintained the current botanicals within our fragrance so that the finish of the scent you know and love remains unchanged. However, we have needed to tweak the parfum of Botanical Essence™ No.1 slightly to comply to updated European regulations. We do have a great 60 day returns policy, should you find any products you purchase with us direct, unsuitable. We hope this information helps however, should you require any further assistance with this, we would ask you to kindly contact our Customer Centre by calling 01983 813913, or email naturallyactive@lizearle.com - The Liz Earle Customer Centre Team
