This is the perfect time for a new floral fragrance as we move towards the spring season! Dior Addict Rosy Glow edp is a new fragrance from Dior; just in time for spring! Love!

Rosy Glow from the Dior Addict collection combines fragrance notes of Damascus Rose, Lychee and caramel. It’s a sweet floral which borders on gourmand. I love how the fragrance is long lasting. One spray will last the full day. Love that!

Dior introduced three new fragrances in the Dior Addict edp collection. Rosy Glow is a sweet floral; Purple Glow is a fruity floral and Peachy Glow is also a fruity floral. Of the three, I prefer Rose, so I chose Rosy Glow for the spring season.

The 1-ounce bottle is priced under $100, it can also make a fabulous Valentine’s Day gift!

If you love sweet rose fragrances, this is for you!

Thanks for stopping by!

Chanel no. 19 edp review

Who doesn’t love a classic scent? I have owned Chanel no. 19 edp for several years now, and it is a classic floral eau de parfum which isn’t sticky or sweet; it’s a green floral.

Why is my bottle so full you ask? Well . . .I may own a few too many bottles of perfume, so it does not get sprayed very often; but I am trying to change that and wear it more often. I really do love the scent for days when I want a floral but not a floral fragrance which rivals a gourmand.

Chanel no. 19 edp mixes green galbanum, powdery iris, rose, ylang-ylang, lily of the valley and a white musk base. Since this is an eau de parfum formula, I find the fragrance lasts all day. Love that!

This is not a strong or overpowering scent. You can wear Chanel no. 19 edp to the office, the theater, and anywhere you are in tight quarters and want to smell nice but not offensive. I would describe it as an everyday perfume which can be worn in any season or weather. Love!

So, if you are looking for a daily eau de parfum, Chanel no. 19 edp is a perfect option!

Thanks for stopping by,

XOXO

Diptyque Citronnelle summer body spray review

diptyque citronelle candle and body spray review

OK, raise your hand if you get eaten alive by bugs. My hand is way up! I cannot tell you how annoying it is to be the magnet of a group for mosquitoes and more.

I don’t mind spraying myself with bug spray if I am going camping or hiking, but if I am eating al fresco or going to an outdoor event, I don’t want to be smelly and sticky! Yuck! So, while I love using my bug repellant bracelets for hiking and camping, I want to use something more discreet for a party, patio dining, and the like.

So, when I spotted this Citronelle summer body spray from Diptyque, I was thrilled! It is a non-sticky, perfume-like bug spray! Love that! I can apply it just like I would any EDT or EDP and it works like a charm. I feel like this summer body spray works even better than just putting a candle on the table.

Speaking of candles, Diptyque makes a Citronelle candle too! Love it! Of course, it has the sweet smell of citronella but it looks quite chic in comparison to the typical bug repelling candle. It really does work too. Yay!

In case you are wondering what the summer body spray smells like, well, it smells like a floral citronella candle. It smells a thousand times better than bug spray, in my opinion. That being said, people will guess what you are wearing; not in a bad way. It does smell good! After all, it is Diptyque!

I will rate Diptyque Citronelle summer body spray five out of five stars! Love!

Thanks for stopping by!

XOXO
