• Huitieme Art Manguier Metisse EDP Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.11.02 | Category: fragrance | Response: 2

  

  Huitieme Art perfumes only contain 2-3 accords and is based on “phyto-perfumery”. You can read more about that and then some at Ça Fleure Bon. One thing is for sure with this line, they trip me up. I feel like I smell them on “rewind”, especially Manguier Métisse.

  Manguier Métisse opens as a sweet mango lassi: sweet, tart, creamy. The mango lassi is perfumed but this time not by a splash of rosewater. Manguier Metisse has a heavy dose of… Continue reading | 2 Comments

• Providence Perfumes Lei Flower EDP Natural Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.09.22 | Category: fragrance | Response: 8

  

  Providence Perfume Lei Flower is a tropical gourmand that is 100% naturally delicious.

  Lei Flower opens up “juicy” almost like cherry, cherry-almond. It’s so juicy and fruity at this stage. And I love it for this.  It gets sweet like honey, but it isn’t honey. It’s a mix of the ripe fruits, sticky, carmalized sugar, and coconut flakes.Yeah, it’s delicious. There are florals but they come across more like dried fruits, like dehydrated slices of bananas and plantains. Lei Flower reminds me… Continue reading | 8 Comments

  Yves Rocher Jardins du Monde Polynesian Tiare Flower Shower Gel is a fragrant, tropical floral shower gel. I know that most of the U.S. is ready for fall since the summer was so hot and abusive. I’m not ready for fall. I still want summer since we didn’t really have a… Continue reading | 2 Comments

• Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier Fleur des Comores EDT Fragrance Review

  Date: 2011.09.08 | Category: fragrance | Response: 6

  

  Maitre Parfumeu et Gantier Fleur des Comores is a tropical custard of banana-like white florals, overripe fruits and creamy vanilla. It’s more than another gourmand fruity-floral. This fragrance captures the realness of black currant and passionfruit, adding a musky-fruit atmosphere that makes this fragrance enjoyable.

  At the very top, I get heady white florals that smell like true-to-life orange blossoms skewed by ylang-ylang headiness. Magically, Fleur de Comores becomes a musky black currant ripening on the plant. I get the leaves and… Continue reading | 6 Comments

• EauMG’s 2011 Beach Fragrance Guide

  Date: 2011.07.17 | Category: fragrance | Response: 8

  

  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:
