Rituals is one of my favorite bath and body brands. So, when they contacted me about reviewing their Happy Mist in Organic Mandarin & Yuzu, light bed and body perfume, I was thrilled! After all, what in the world is “light bed and body perfume?”

I love fragrance, in the form of perfume. I also love home fragrance, but all in one? I was not really sure what to expect. I was thrilled when I found Rituals Happy Mist in Organic Mandarin & Yuzu light bed and body perfume worked as a beautiful, light citrus body fragrance and also worked well as an air freshener for the bed. Love that!

Since Rituals Happy Mist in Organic Mandarin & Yuzu light bed and body perfume is safe on textiles, hence the designation “bed perfume,” It is OK to spray on after getting dressed; or even when wearing crisp, white clothing! Ritual Happy Mist in Organic Mandarin & Yuzu light bed and body perfume is made to be sprayed on both the body and fabric. This means that is will not stain textiles (fabric) and does not contain alcohol. This added benefit makes it ideal for sensitive skin. Love that!

The Mandarin & Yuzu scent is fresh and pretty. I am looking forward to trying more products by Rituals in this fragrance group. I am also looking forward to trying more light bed and body perfume from Rituals!

If you have been following along lately, you may already know I am a huge fan of Agraria home fragrance. I have Agraria AirEssence Diffuser’s in my home already, so I really wanted to try one of Agraria’s candles in order to experience more of Agraria’s home fragrance products. I love burning scented candles in the cool, late-fall, and winter weather. There is something warm and comforting about a candle in cold weather. Since one of my favorite fragrances to wear is orange, I thought it would be amazing to scent my home with an orange laced candle.

I was thrilled when I received my Bitter Orange scented candle from Agraria. Not only did the candle smell amazing, it was housed in a beautiful woven crystal jar. I love the idea of a formal candle and I decided to display it in my formal living room with a crystal turtle, and next to one of my kids baby pictures. Not only did the candle look amazing on my end table, it filled the room with a fabulous, bitter orange scent. Love that! 

Although I tend to wear citrus scents in the warm, summer months, there was something warm and inviting about the Bitter Orange scent from the Agraria candle which fit perfectly into the cool weather. 

This beautiful candle is housed in woven crystal with a silver-plated cap. The cap features Agraria’s crest stamped onto the top. Agraria’s Bitter Orange candle in woven crystal not only looks amazing in my home, it smells amazing too. I cannot wait to fill my home with more candles from Agraria! I also plan to pick up a few to give out as Christmas gifts this year. Perfection!

Pipers Perfumery

Piper’s Perfumery is a new fragrance line which just launched in September 2014. Piper’s Perfumery collection of fragrance mists offer both a whimsical and romantic fragrance experience perfect for the fall 2014 season. Inspired by the “girl-next-door” who is easy-going and carefree, Piper’s Perfumery fragrance mists are lighthearted and easy to wear everyday.

“Sheer Blue” by Piper’s Perfumery is a fresh, citrus fragrance which is perfect for the moderate to warm weather we are experiencing this fall season. In addition to the citrus top, “Sheer Blue” offers a citrus floral fragrance experience with a slightly warm base; perfect for when the evening fog rolls in over the mountains. I adore the fresh yet warm fragrance experience “Sheer Blue” by Piper’s Perfumery offers for a daily fragrance this autumn season.

Top Notes: Crisp Apple, Bright Bergamot, Lemon Zest

Middle Notes: Bluebell, Sheer Jasmine, delicate Rose

Base Notes: White Amber, Blonde Woods, Musk

“Eye Candy” is a sweet, inviting scent which is just as irresistible as your favorite jelly beans or ice cream. This fruity gourmand fragrance is ideal for moderate to cool weather and will take you from fall into winter and back into spring with ease.

As a gourmand fan, I love the candy sweet scent which is smooth, without being sticky.

Top Notes: Sweet Strawberry, Raspberry

Middle Notes: Pink Macaroon, Sugar Cane, Cotton Candy

Base Notes: Whipped Vanilla Bean

Piper’s Perfumery fragrance mists are easy to wear daily and can be applied lightly with once spray, or heavier with multiple sprays; allowing you to experience the fragrance with the depth you prefer. In addition to “Sheer Blue and “Eye Candy,” Piper’s Perfumery also offers five additional scent which are “Sea Salt & Rosewater,” “Naughty & Nice,” “Delicate French Vanilla,” “Love Spark” and “Moroccan Dream.” I am looking forward to testing out these additional scents!

Piper’s Perfumery fragrance mists can be found at Walmart Stores. To learn more about Piper’s Perfumery, please “like” them on Facebook.
