Seven Deadly Scents
Ok, so not deadly. But definitely sexy!
Whenever the Captain and I (who celebrated a birthday yesterday– happy birthday, baby!) go away, we have a "tradition" of getting a new scent. I never realized how very significant this was until weeks after our trip. I can smell my clothes, hair accessories, or the scent itself, and I am transported back in time. I can literally see, feel and experience everything I did on that trip. It’s very nostalgic for me.
I wondered if other luxelings were like that– and what day would you want to remember more than your wedding day? I’m not a big fan of scenting your event (as I saw suggested horrifically by one wedding glossy); I think it can have adverse reactions. However, I am all about scenting you. Your signature wedding scent should be all about YOU. Your personality, your inner diva, your wedding day, your love for your honey, and everything you want all of that to embody.
In Miami, we were able to scope out some new scents that j’adore! They really are beautiful…
I have loved Lolita Lempicka for years. For one, the little bottle is just too darn cute. A sweet little apple
The scent is so light and sweet, and it’s not too overbearing, but subtle enough to be succulent.
Description:
Once upon a time in the mystical, magical, fairytale world of Lolita Lempicka, she conjured up the intoxicating sweet fragrance of Liquorice Flower, the floral notes of Iris Amarena a dash of violet and finished with hints of Vanilla, Musk and Patchouli…casting this spell on women, Lolita brought out their innermost femininity, strength and confidence ….take a step in to the wondrous world of Lolita Lempicka… and smell like a dream…
My first trip to Jamaica was Miami Glow, and I loved it! Then I smelled Live Luxe, and swooned! It’s fabulous! It’s sexy, it’s bold, and fresh. It contains pear, peach, amethyst freesia, muguet petals, musk, and amber.
Right next to Live Luxe was Deseo. The Captain adored this one! The bottle is pretty– and if your man likes it, then honey, you know you must get it! It has notes of watery bamboo leaves, garden yuzu, Sicilian bergamot, freesia, star jasmine, pink geranium flower, orange blossom, french mimosa, warm amber, oak moss, sensual musks, creamy sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli, and mineral accord.
Apparently, it was inspired by a walk in Jennifer’s garden right before a thunderstorm. You can even get a free sample at www.jenniferlopezbeauty.com
