I can’t imagine that a day will ever come that this blogger is not a huge fan of Lavanila Laboratories and their 100% natural scents. As I write this review of their Coconut Vanilla scent, an email just arrived to inform me of their new Fresh Vanilla Lemon collection… and I am already drooling in anticipation!

Fragrance and Perfume
212 Glam by Carolina Herrera
I don’t like to dwell too much on packaging, but the packaging for Carolina Herrera’s limited-edition 212 Glam fragrance is AMAZING so I have to at least make some mention of it. The outer casing is 50/50 metallic and clear jewel-toned red, and inside rests a two-sided fragrance container that looks almost like a time released pill! Each end of the capsule is a vial of perfume! [Read more…] about 212 Glam by Carolina Herrera
The Coach Holiday Fragrance Lineup!
Giving the gift of fragrance can be tricky, but this time of year is when you get to redeem those GCs, return unwanted sweaters, and select your own gifts!
I adore the Coach fragrance lineup from the holiday season, and if I had a GC to spend (and hadn’t already received product samples) these gleaming metallic limited edition bottles would be my splurge! [Read more…] about The Coach Holiday Fragrance Lineup!
Forever Red
Shopping with your children when they are young boys is a brief and painful experience. When it comes to browsing in Bath & Body Works, the task is a bit more relaxed and enjoyable. My boys smell every single candle, and one of the shops near my home even has a sink where they can lather up with anti-bacterial soap. They end up with clean hands, I end up with an opportunity to shop. Win, win!
Naturally I was captivated when I stumbled upon a Forever Red display while wandering about with my youngest. The red bottles lured me the way a bright light lures a moth. Sadly, I only discovered the scent when my son was already bored, so we headed out before I had time to play. [Read more…] about Forever Red
Donna Karan Woman
At my age, I’ve had the delightful opportunity to see trends come, go, and then come again. Fragrance is a great example of this. When I was coming of age in the 80s, popular fragrances were seductive and mature. Even as a 14-year-old, I was dipping into brands intended for much older women! And nothing… nothing… smelled like a cookie, or a candy, or food of any kind! [Read more…] about Donna Karan Woman
