• Pacifica Mediterranean Fig Solid Perfume Review

  Date: 2009.12.22 | Category: Beauty Best Under $10, fragrance | Response: 2

  

  I love a fig fragrance. They are what I “collect”. Sometimes I find myself purchasing less-than-perfect-figs just because I can’t help it. And I love a fig fragrance that actually smells wonderful and retails for under $10. So, what I am saying is that I love Pacifica Mediterranean Fig Solid Perfume. It is a must have for the fig lover. And even a must have for those wanting a simple scent. I see why this is one of Pacifica’s #1 sellers.

  The tin is adorable. I love the almost Marimekko… Continue reading | 2 Comments

• Crazylibellule & The Poppies Les Garçonnes Pompon Gardenia Fragrance Review

  Date: 2009.10.20 | Category: fragrance, vintage | Response: 5

  

  So far, I am really loving Les Garçonnes fragrance collection. Pompon Gardenia is an amazing heady white floral blend with sweet lime. This is one of my favorite white florals ever. I love a super feminine white floral and this is a winner with its blend of gardenia, lilies, and lime.

  I assume that the inspiration for Pompon Gardenia was François Pompon, a 20′s era sculptor and Rodin’s assistant. I’ve always remembered him for his sleek chouettes. But, it could just be pompon as a fashion accessory. I don’t know… Continue reading | 5 Comments

• Melissa Flagg Hazel's Solid Perfume Review

  Date: 2009.09.20 | Category: fragrance | Response: 2

  

  I love Melissa Flagg fragrances. Many of them are super floral and super feminine. I have tried the perfume oil roll-ons and I am impressed with their portability paired with long-wear. Since I am a sucker for solid fragrances, I was so delighted to see that the line includes solid perfumes. The texture is divine. It is rich, not greasy, harder than most. It feels just like real shea butter because the base is shea and cocoa butter. This means it is never greasy and with the warmth of your touch it evens… Continue reading | 2 Comments

• L'Occitane The Bergamote Solid Perfume Fragrance Review

  Date: 2009.06.29 | Category: Beauty Best Under $10, fragrance | Response: 3

  

  I picked up this limited edition L’Occitane Thé Bergamote solid fragrance because the price was right at $9. Plus, I love solid fragrances and Earl Grey tea. The fragrance itself is very, very simple. It claims to have luminous citrus from Italy and black tea leaves.” It is very heavy on the citrus, which is a bergamot. I love bergamot essence. And this is a pretty nice and simple bergamot with a tiny bit of grapefruit. The black tea leaves are there, just not as much as the citrus. This smells more of… Continue reading | 3 Comments

• New Crazylibellule & The Poppies Les Garconnes Fragrance: Dedicated To The Flapper

  Date: 2009.06.21 | Category: fragrance, vintage | Response: 0

  

  I must say that I haven’t sniffed any of these yet but I know that I want them all. Sometimes a company just “gets” me. I get branded and I can’t help it. This is what I’ve been “into” for quite sometime, why don’t they just stamp a French bulldog on the package and pair it with some violet mints and a stereoscope and you have consumer me. I am a sucker for this stuff. I may have long hair but I do flaunt 20′s turbans and head wear. I love the elegance… Continue reading
