• Comptoir Sud Pacifique Aqua Motu EDP Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.08.24 | Category: fragrance | Response: 4

  

  Comptoir Sud Pacifique Aqua Motu EDT is a clean, aquatic marine fragrance. It is described as a “light, clean, and breezy” fragrance. It is. I usually hate clean, aquatic fragrances. However, for this fume genre Aqua Motu is tolerable for an ocean-fresh-seabreeze genre, but I don’t go out of my way to wear it and I’d never buy it. It was launched in the early 90′s when all of the aquatic fragrances for men AND women were the… Continue reading | 4 Comments

• i Profumi di Firenze Limone di Sicilia EDP Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.08.17 | Category: fragrance | Response: 8

  

  When life hands you lemons…you make a niche perfume. Or at least that is what i Profumi di Firenze did.

  If you want a fragrance that smells exactly like Lemonheads, here you go. I don’t mean this in a negative way. Hey, even Lemonheads have real lemon juice in them! Limone di Sicilia smells sour but a little sweet just like lemon candies. However, with time Limone di Sicilia intensifies and really does remind me EXACTLY of lemon peel. And… Continue reading | 8 Comments

  Sometimes I want to smell like Hawaiian Tropic and coconut rum. And I’m not the only one. People associate these smells with vacations and vacations are usually relaxing. And most of us are usually stressed. Enjoying “beach” scents is basically aromatherapy. It usually improves our mood, making us feel relaxed. And since I’m not getting a tropical beach vacation any time soon, thank goodness for these fragrances:

  It’s the summer of patchouli. Imagine 13 amazing, talented perfumers creating a fragrance with 25% patchouli and 100% natural keeping their project secret, numbered only, sending these out for fragrance experts and celebrities (yeah, Kim Novak, seriously) to sniff and rank. I’m giving a big thanks to Monica Sky Miller. She coordinated this huge sensory event, Summer of Patchouli Love 2011, Perfume Pharmer & The Patch Test Bunnies.

• C.O. Bigelow Lemon & Orange Blossom Body Splash

  Date: 2011.06.11 | Category: fragrance | Response: 7

  

  In preperation for summer, I purchased C.O. Bigelow Lemon & Orange Blossom Body Splash on a whim. It was cheap, marked down, and I couldn’t resist. Sniffing it in the bottle, I thought it smelled good. Neroli isn’t an easy ingredient to mess up, right?

  Here’s the deal. C.O. Bigelow didn’t mess up neroli. They didn’t mess up Lemon & Orange Blossom. It smells good. It’s a refreshing melody of tart citrus and citrus blossoms. I really do like it… Continue reading | 7 Comments
