Jazmin Sarai Solar’1 Perfume Review

Jazmin Sarai Solar'1 perfume review

Jazmin Sarai is an indie perfume house that focuses on “immersive experiences”. So, it’s a brand that likes to connect scent to visual and auditory arts.

Nateeva Bahamas perfume review

The Beach Eaus – A month of beach and ocean inspired perfumes.

Sarah Horowitz Perfect Coconut Milk EDP & Perfume Oil Review

Sarah Horowitz Coconut Milk perfume review

The Beach Eaus – A month of beach and ocean inspired perfumes.

The month isn’t over yet so you better believe I’m still going to talk about coconut perfumes. Beach perfumes don’t have to smell like coconuts and coconut perfumes don’t have to smell like the beach. But, let’s be real, when most of us see the word “coconut” in a perfume’s name or in its note list, we are expecting something that smells beach-y.

Sarah Horowitz is… Continue reading
