• Thymes Agave Nectar Body Wash & Hand Lotion Review

  Date: 2011.12.13 | Category: body products | Response: 2

  Thymes is a personal and home fragrance line located in Minneapolis. For years, I’ve loved their home fragrances. After reading about Agave Nectar Bubble Bath in Allure’s Best of Beauty*, I knew it was time to try Thymes’ body line.

  

  I’m not usually attracted to citrus fragrances so the description of Agave Nectar didn’t jump out at me. The scent itself does. Agave Nectar surprises me with how good it is. It’s a juicy ruby red grapefruit. It’s tart but not overly sulfuric… Continue reading | 2 Comments

  It’s December! And I think this is the perfect time to start burning holiday candles. AND December 1st is World AIDS Day. I’ve been burning Sir Elton John’s Holiday Candle by NEST.

  Mainstream Monday – Sniffing A Popular Perfume

  Fragrances like these are the fragrances that turn people into judgmental fragrance snobs. This fragrance is a synthetic mess, a fragrance with no thoughts or feelings. It’s obvious that it was only made to be sold to brides that wanted their husband in a “matchy-matchy” fragrance on their wedding day. And it makes people snobs because all of the marketing works. Wow, I didn’t mean to sound so bitter…

• Lostmarch Din Dan EDT Fragrance Video Review

  Date: 2011.08.28 | Category: fragrance, video reviews | Response: 5

  If light lemony fragrances are your thing, then you need to try niche line, Lostmarc’h Din Dan. Din Dan is a refreshing herbal lemonade fragrance with a playful name that is fun to say. Unfortunately, the fragrance doesn’t wear very long on me at all.

  

  Din Dan opens up as a pretty floral lemonade. It’s tart with a little bit of sweet, not too sweet, but sweeter than regular ‘ole lemon juice. It’s like a tall glass of iced lemonade with a sprig… Continue reading | 5 Comments

• Anya’s Garden Light Natural Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.07.19 | Category: fragrance | Response: 8

  

  If you read EauMG regularly, you know I don’t really care for citrus perfumes. They don’t hold my attention. I tend to like more old-fashioned eau de cologne masculines because they last longer on my skin. So, I didn’t know what to expect when sampling Anya’s Garden Light. Here I am, a person that likes “heavy” fragrances and I don’t like citrus. Well, maybe I do like citrus and I’ve tried all of the “wrong” ones. I’m impressed with Anya’s Garden Light. This is a… Continue reading | 8 Comments
