Chance Chanel Eau Splendide edp review

Chanel has a fabulous new fragrance, and I am here for it! I haven’t worn a fruity floral perfume in quite some time, so this new fragrance one from Chanel is incredibly amazing to have been able to capture my attention. Love!

Chanel Chance Eau Splendide edp is a not-too-sweet fruity floral with top notes of raspberry, rose and violet. The heart of the fragrance is rose geranium with a base of powdery iris, musk and cedar. I always love how smooth a fragrance is with musk as a base. It balances the fruit and florals, keeping them from getting sticky sweet. This is a beautiful blend of notes, balanced perfectly. I am in love!

If you are looking for the perfect warm weather fragrance, or a fabulous gift, you have found the perfect eau de parfum! I plan to wear Chanel Chance Eau Splendide edp everyday this spring and summer. Love it!

Pima Air and Space Museum

Have you been to the Pima Air and Space Museum in Tucson, AZ? If not, I highly recommend visiting! This museum is huge! It is jam-packed with airplanes from every type of air travel imaginable, as well as NASA artifacts and displays. It is truly amazing, and you can easily spend an entire day here.

We were excited to see Kennedy and Johnson’s Air Force One as well as other historically significant aircraft. It was also fun to see a TWA plane! I am old enough to remember flying on TWA, so that was fun.

What I wore to the Pima Air and Space Museum:

What to expect: There will be a lot of walking, so wear comfortable walking shoes. A large portion of the museum is outside, so check the weather, wear sunscreen, bring a hat and sunglasses. It gets hot and bright out there. Keep drinking water, especially if it’s hot. This is a great museum for families and adults alike. It is really interesting, educational, and fun! There is also a restaurant inside where you can get sandwiches, burgers, etc.

So, next time you are in the Tucson AZ area, be sure to check out Pima Air and Space Museum!

Thanks for stopping by,

XOXO
