Esme Perfume Pendant Review

As you would expect at Perfume Fairy, we’re big fans of all things perfume which is why we were excited to hear from a company called Esme Jewellery who offered to send us one of their perfume pendants to try out.
If you’re anything like me then a single application of perfume is not enough, and I often like to to-up throughout the day. But that usually means carrying a heavy perfume bottle or mini perfume atomiser around with me in my handbag. Sometimes however, I just like to be hands-free but still like to have some perfume with me and that’s when an Esme perfume pendant is ideal. This egg-shaped pendant’s party trick is that it opens up to reveal a small roll-on perfume applicator inside.
So, what were my thoughts on trying out a pendant for myself? Well, I am not used to wearing necklaces in this style so was a bit unsure to start with but, once I found a blouse to match, I was good to go and loved it! It really did feel like a little gift around my neck!
For me, everything about receiving a product in the post is important, from the packaging to the contents, and this little package really did deliver. It arrived neatly and securely packed in a gorgeous little box.
First impressions were good in terms of overall quality. It was smaller than I expected it to be, but smaller in a good way. Anything bigger would feel obtrusive. The necklace is silver, a good length, feels sturdy and looks trendy. The jewelled egg pendant is just beautiful and the little Swarovski crystals are what make it really special. I had the black one and just loved it. I think you do have to choose the right blouse / top to complement it but when you do, it looks great.
Receiving a complement is always a treat and I’ve received a few while wearing my pendant – ladies commenting on how unique it was, how elegant, with a gorgeous little sparkle – and that was before they even realised what was inside.
Of course, the purpose of the necklace is a secret little place to hold some perfume. It’s a good idea although the amount of perfume it holds is quite small (4 or 5 sprays from a bottle), so it’s definitely more useful for topping-up rather than initial application. If you’re going out straight from the office or need a quick top-up before an important dinner/meeting then it’s perfect.
Filling up the roll-on using the included funnel lid was easy enough although I did find that once filled, I had to give it a little shake to get it applying properly but other than that I had no problems.
So would I recommend the Esme perfume pendant? In a word, yes. It’s great for any perfume lover and thanks to it’s good looks, quality finish and perfect presentation, would make an ideal and novel gift.
