Perfume of the Week: Pivoine Angel

So way back in 2005, Thierry Mugler wanted to do a special Angel scent that incorporated a floral into it.  Be blended his fragrances with one of 3 flowers: Lily, Violet and Peony.  But upon smelling these creations, he had a dilemma.  All smell so lovely with their own characteristics, which to choose?

Well, he chose all 3 and created the Angel Garden of Stars.

Fragrance of the Week: Comptoir Sud Pacific Amour de Cacao

This week's scent is a bit of a curve ball.  While there is a huge part of me that enjoys foody scents, it's usually not in the form of a fragrance.

But this one is a definite exception.

Grand Re-Opening for Missha US Website

So after their holiday sale, Missha did a mini overhaul of their US site.  Some may find this to be good news others might have liked the older system better.

What do I think?

Peter Pilotto for Target Lookbook is Out!!!!!

Short and sweet, to see the lookbook head on over to refinery29 or click here.

I have to say that while I am super excited for some pieces, I am actually thankful that I don't want to buy the entire collection.  My bank account will be taking a slight beating but nothing like I thought it would.

But then again who knows, I wasn't initially impressed with the Phillip Lim collaboration and I ended up with a good chunk of stuff.

Fragrance of Week: Parfums DelRae Panache

Real life has been busy (and stressful).

So this post is a little late and I apologize.

This week, my fragrance is Panache from Parfums DelRae.

I really love this scent so much that when Barneys decided not to carry the brand anymore and put the remaining stock on sale, I got 3 bottles of the stuff.

Fragrance of the Week: Atelier Cologne Trefle Pur

If you are unfamiliar with Atelier Cologne then you need to check them out here.

The best I can describe their fragrances is a beautiful collection of surprisingly unisex fragrances that leave a gorgeous air about the person wearing them.

They have something for everyone whether you like florals, musk, fruity, etc......  They also blend together really well.  I notice that a lot of them have a citrus note to them.  I find the citrus in their fragrances to be refreshing but not overly volatile.

Honey Color Review Part 2

For reference Part 1 is located here.

I have no excuse other than I've been lazy playing otome games on my phone rather than writing up.  But once in a while I suppose everyone needs to get away and fantasize about a bunch of very sexily drawn men vying for your love and attention.

This is going to review the second part of my order from Honey Color.  I have never really disclosed this before but all items were purchased by me and I get nothing from the company.

So let's continue shall we?

Fragrance of the Week: Tocca Brigitte

I never was into Tocca fragrances.  I always thought them too overhyped and never found one that I liked enough to buy.

So now they are being sold at Nordstrom, and with Nordstrom Note in hand I went to take a gander at some new scents.
