Escada Joyful eau de parfum review

Escada Joyful eau de parfum is a beautiful, sweet floral which offers a pink peony fragrance experience laced with fruit. This sweet floral is ideal for right now, and into the spring season. The floral combination lends itself well to moderate to warm weather; the perfect fragrance for spring!

Escada Joyful edp starts off with a floral zing surrounded by a slight black current scent. After about twenty minutes, Escada Joyful eau de parfum settles into a sweet floral which offers light to medium strength throughout the day. 

Top notes: Blackcurrant Sorbet, Melon, Mandarin

Middle notes: Violet Leaves, Pink Peony, Dewy Magnolia, Nectarine

Base notes: Honeycomb, Florymoss, Sandalwood

I love wearing Escada Joyful eau de parfum right now as our spring weather arrives here in the San Francisco Bay Area. The sweet floral scent is ideal with our 50-70 degree weather; and will continue to be ideal as we head toward summer. Love that!

Laura Mercier Golden Honey Musk review

If you have been following my blog for awhile, you already know I am a huge fan of Laura Mercier’s bath products. Laura Mercier’s honey bath collection is a luxurious line of bubble baths which offer moisturizing properties and warm fragrances. Laura Mercier’s line of souffle body creme is equally luxurious; offering warm fragrances and vitamin-packed moisture. Love that!

For the 2014 holiday season, Laura Mercier is offering a beautiful gift box with both the Golden Honey Musk honey and Golden Honey Musk souffle body creme together as a duet. Love it! These beautiful smelling skin care products would normally cost $53 when purchased separately, but as a duet, they are priced at only $50. Perfect holiday gift!

Laura Mercier’s Golden Honey Musk Duet is a limited edition gift set for the holiday 2014 season. I love the idea of giving someone two of my favorite fragrant, skin care products in a pretty box. Golden Honey Musk is such a beautiful scent which is warm and ideal for the winter months. It makes the perfect gift!

I give both products in Laura Mercier’s Golden Honey Musk duet five out of five stars. I’m in love with this gift set!

Rituals Happy Mist Organic Mandarin & Yuzu light bed and body perfume review

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!
