This is my favourite L’Occitane scent and I think that it’s perfect for Mother’s Day because it’s fresh, refreshing, but still floral with a slightly musky base. The notes include fresh citrus fruit and velvety peach, rose, peony, lily of the valley and a hint of white musk. Pivoine Delicate is a limited edition of [...]
L’Eau de Chloe Review
This year, the flanker to the 2008 Chloe is one that’s gotten tons of buzz and has been eagerly awaited by perfume-lovers. What had me waiting to reach for it was the fact that the new juice has 22% rosewater in it, which would give a definitely lightness and freshness to the perfume. Luckily, L’Eau [...]
New Perfume: Burberry Brit Summer Edition
The latest from Burberry is a flanker to their Burberry Brit fragrance. The scent is lighter and more sparkling than the original, making it just right for layering in the summer. Notes include: pear, lime, and green tea, with middle notes being sugared almond and white peony. The base notes are musks, amber, and mahogany wood. The [...]
Marc Jacobs Splash 2012 – Tropical
You may not agree, but I’m glad that Marc Jacobs now has the Splash fragrances in a smaller size. In the past years, I found that no matter how much I loved the smell of the Splash (Cucumber, and Rain were winners for me), I just couldn’t use up the whole bottle in the summer [...]
Viktor and Rolf Spicebomb Review
With the immense success of Flowerbomb (which didn’t smell like flowers), this spring, Viktor and Rolf have launched a new scent for men called Spicebomb. I’ll cut to the chase and say that it doesn’t smell like spices, but it does stay true to the spirit of Flowerbomb. The notes for Spicebomb include bergamot and [...]

New Nine West Love Fury
Love Fury is the new perfume by Nine West, one of my favourite shoe stores. I was surprised that they were coming wout with a perfume, but if Jimmy Choo can do it then so can they! The perfume opens with mandarin and red berries (definitely more fruity and sweet rather thing just being fresh), [...]

Of course, it being spring there are notes of bergamot and citrus to open the scent. The middle notes are cherry blossom and green tea which are light and fragrant [...]
Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfum by Jimmy Choo
Latest this March is Jimmy Choo Eau de Parfum by Jimmy Choo. What perfume has to do with shoes, I have no clue, but I suppose it’s an aspirational lifestyle they’re selling. If you can’t afford the shoes, get the perfume, and you’ll almost be as stylist as Carrie on Sex and the City. I [...]
