I (hysterically) told you all in yesterday's blather about the fact I'd gotten a gift of a bespoke Roja Dove fragrance at the launch of Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit facial wash and scrub. Roja had been brought over by the brand to talk about the uplifting qualities of citrus notes, given that there's a grapefruit scent in the products, and at the end, we were all presented with a beautiful, custom-created and extremely limited edition bottle of beautifully-packaged perfume created by Dove - one of the world's most respected perfumers - as a gift.
You can't put a price on something like this, because it is quite literally priceless. This citrussy white floral will never be created again and was developed for that one occasion, and that occasion only. For me, that's just mind-blowing. So when Daiseeboo asked on the blather "did they give you a spare for one lucky Beaut.ie reader?", it was bursting out of me to shout YES!
BECAUSE THEY HAVE.
A close-up of the fragrance
Yup, one of you lucky, lucky girls will bag a goody bag that contains:

- this unique Roja Dove scent. Very simply, this is a white floral with citrus accords. It is beautiful (very very much to my taste) and develops equally beautifully, having fantastic longevity
- a copy of his book, The Essence of Perfume
- the two Neutrogena products, Neutrogena Pink Grapefruit facial wash and scrub
Here's a shot of the new Neutrogena range and we'll be telling you more about it shortly: at €5.49 each, these are blemish- and spot-clearing products that are aimed at teenagers and 20-somethings. Salicylic acid and the brand's proprietary Microclear technology firstly unclog pores and then help prevent spots from forming. We'll be locating a spot-monster and putting these to a test, never fear.
