LaVanila Vanilla Coconut EDP review

lavanilla coconut fragrance summer perfume lavanilla coconut vanilla review

Two of my favorite fragrance notes of all time are vanilla and coconut. I love vanilla in fragrance during all four seasons of the year. I love the sweet scent, and the warm, cozy vibe vanilla gives off. Another favorite note of mine is coconut. I love coconut during the summer. I associate coconut with an exotic beach, relaxation, pool parties; and everything fabulous about the summer season. This is why I HAD to get my hands on LaVanila Vanilla Coconut eau de parfum.

LaVanila Vanilla Coconut EDP is a dream come true. This sweet scent is ideal for summer. Not only does it offer the warm fragrance of cozy vanilla, it has the coconut scent which is ubiquitous with summer. Love that!

LaVanila fragrances are simple scents. They offer a vanilla heart mixed with one other dominant note. Vanilla Coconut is no different. The notes LaVanila combined to create Vanilla Coconut are:

Notes: Creamy Coconut, Tahitian Tiare Flower, Madagascar Vanilla.

This combination creates a long lasting, vanilla-coconut combination which is easy to wear on a daily basis during the hot summer months. Perfection!

There are many reasons, besides a fabulous scent, to love LaVanila. They happen to create healthy fragrances which infuse organic sugar cane alcohol, botanicals, and antioxidants. Since fragrance is absorbed into the skin, this is huge! After all, who wants strange chemicals getting absorbed into your skin! Ew!

I have found myself wearing LaVanila Vanilla Coconut EDP almost everyday! It is perfect for hot weather, and all of the summer activities which go along with it! I definitely want to test out more from LaVanila.

I rate LaVanila Vanilla Coconut edp five out of five stars!

Escada has a beautiful new, limited edition fragrance for summer 2015; Turquoise Summer EDT. Escada Turquoise Summer eau de toilette is a light, fruity gourmand fragrance. 

Turquoise Summer by Escada starts off with a sweet, fruity scent which is laced with a light, vanilla sheen. After about twenty minutes, the fragrance settles into a fruity bouquet with smooth, sweet undertones. As the day goes on, Escada Turquoise Summer EDT takes on a sweet, floral scent which ends with a woody base. The EDT mixture is light; lasting about three quarters of a day.

Top Notes: Strawberry, Raspberry, Blackcurrant

Escada Turquoise Summer EDT is a fabulous fragrance for the warm summer months. The sweet, fruity gourmand scent works perfectly in warm, and hot weather. The light composition lends itself well to being worn in tight quarters, such as the office, or theater.

I rate Escada Turquoise Summer eau de toilette, five out of five stars.

Gucci Guilty pour homme after shave review

gucci guilty after shave fathers day gift idea

After-Shave c/o Gucci. Gucci Guilty pour homme after-shave.

Gucci Guilty pour homme after-shave is a classic scent from Gucci for men. The after-shave itself instantly calms the skin after an electric shave, or manual shave. In addition to calm skin, the fragrance experience is crisp, warm, and everything a man should smell like. Love that!

Top notes: zesty lemon, cool lavender, spicy pink pepper.

Middle notes: orange blossom

Base notes: patchouli, cedar, sandalwood, and amber

Gucci Guilty pour homme after-shave offers a warm citrus fragrance experience which ends the day with a warm, woody base. The light, spicy zing from pink pepper combines with lemon and orange blossom to create the ideal fragrance experience for moderate to warm weather. It is refreshing and warm; all at the same time!

I tested out Gucci Guilty pour homme after-shave on my husband. It calmed his skin after he shaved with an electric razor. The overall fragrance experience throughout the day was refreshing, crisp, warm, and inviting. Loved it!

Gucci Guilty pour homme after-shave will make a great gift for Father’s Day, or any upcoming, gift-giving occasion! Five out of five stars 😉
