The 2012 List – Best & Worst Perfumes

December 28, 2012

2012 has been an insanely busy year for me. I’ve made some rather “big”, perhaps even drastic changes in my life and I’ve had a huge shift of priorities. This year has been a contemplative one for me. I’ve always said that half the problem with life is figuring out what you want. 2012 has been the year where I’ve realized what I want. 2013 is the year it happens.

January 16, 2011

Bond No. 9 New York Oud

Bond No. 9 is launching a new oud perfume this February, New York Oud, composed by Laurent Le Guernec. New York Oud is described as an “expectation defying oud”. (wow) This unisex oud is “modernized and urbanized” and won’t have an Old World oud/incense feel.

New York Oud also contains a 30 percent… Continue reading | 6 Comments

NEW: LUSH 9 to 5 Cleansing Lotion

August 25, 2010

LUSH 9 to 5 Cleansing LotionLUSH has launched 9 to 5 Cleansing Lotion, a makeup removing liquid lotion. This lotion is contains nourishing almond oil and moisturizing Vitamin A. It is also enriched with Singaporean orchid oil. This gives the cleanser a luxurious tropical floral fragrance. It’s like powdery ylang-ylang and spicy orchids. Like all makeup removing lotions, you apply it to the skin and then “wipe” it off with a damp cotton pad. I’m kind of stoked by this product because it makes me think of Dolly Parton (the name and… Continue reading | 8 Comments
