• NEST Moss & Mint Candle and Diffuser Review

  Date: 2011.08.30 | Category: home scents | Response: 5

  

  NEST Moss and Mint reminds me of Persian food and that’s one of the many reasons that I love it. It’s like mint tea, greens and floral waters. It’s a beautiful scent for the home or body. And it’s one of my favorites for the summer.

  The fragrance is so refreshing. It’s very “green” with herbal and cooling mint and little dainty “forest floor” florals. Should I call those floorals? It smells fresh and it really is perfect for the home… Continue reading | 5 Comments

• 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

• Annick Goutal Mandragore EDT Fragrance Review

  Date: 2011.07.07 | Category: fragrance | Response: 9

  

  Mandragore (French for mandrake) is one of my favorite summer scents. This perfume is fresh, spicy, and woodsy. This scent is based on the mystical/mythical mandrake, a howling killer, some serious symbolism and folklore here. The “idea” alone of this fragrance could hook me, luckily the fragrance did too.

  At first the fragrance is very citrusy thanks to a heavy hand of bergamot. Bergamot is a note used in most fragrances and is “generic” at times. It isn’t in this blend.  It’s zesty, bubbly, green, and fresh. In the beginning… Continue reading | 9 Comments

  Mainstream Monday – Sniffing a Popular Perfume

  Dear CAHS,

  Oh, Chanel Allure Homme Sport, what an unfortunate name! You’ll never attract any snobby perfume lover with a name like that! And to make matters even worse, you’re not Allure Homme Sport EDT, you’re even sportier and “fresher” with the title Allure Homme Sport Cologne Sport! Fans of classic Chanel perfumes will never try you. And those wanting a typical “sporty” American fragrance won’t like you either. And you have “homme” in your title

  Mainstream Monday – Sniffing A Popular Perfume

  Yves Rocher Thé Vert/Green Tea Eau de Cologne is one of those energizing citrus scents done in that screechy super clean and fresh 1990′s style. Thé Vert is lemony, unisex green floral that reminds me of other “green tea” fragrances.

  Thé Vert is mainly bergamot and lemon and orange “zest”. I detect a hint of cool mint and a… Continue reading | 4 Comments
