L’OCCITANE’S Cherry Princess eau de toilette

One scent I would love in my house is Ion’s from Singapore; it smells fresh, clean and cool.

But until it is sold locally, I am happy with the Diptyque candles we got last Christmas.

In feng shui, the power of scents is recognized. In fact I read that lavender and chamomile are calming, so I make it a point to put them in the diffuser in the playroom.

If you need a pick-me-upper and don’t want the sugar coffee will give you, a good scent to  have is rosemary, peppermint, eucalyptus or lemongrass. For romance, the scents are ylang-ylang, sandalwood, rose and jasmine. So if you are in a romantic mood, light a candle with these scents.

We come across different scents every day that we forget how powerful a scent is. A scent has the power to take us back to special places and moments in our lives. In fact the most subtle of scents can trigger certain emotions. So I suggest if you want to get your boyfriend back, you have to change your scent so he won’t have to remember terrible times when he sees you. Grab a new scent and make new memories.

That’s why choosing the scent we use is very important. Yes, we often have a signature scent but it doesn’t mean we should limit ourselves to what we have grown accustomed to. Truth of the matter is, when getting ready, wearing a scent takes the shortest time and yet gives the maximum impact.

The best way to make a scent stay long is by layering products of the same variant. L’Occitane is a company that has products to do just that. Its newest scent is Cerisier Princesse (Cherry Princess), which contains cherry extract from the Luberon. It has a floral-fruity fragrance and you can start with shower cream, body cream and spritz on either the eau de toilette or rub on the solid perfume.

Layering is such a luxurious experience that every girl should have products she can layer to de-stress and indulge in. If you don’t have such a product yet, check out L’Occitane. It has a whole range of scents to choose from. You will surely find something you’ll love!

Bulgari Omnia Coral is the fifth fragrance from the Omnia line. I find this to be the most fruity-floral of the Omnia line. This scent is very summery and certainly a must-try. Inspired by the vibrantly colored gemstone, the fragrance features notes of juicy red berries and pomegranate. It also has citrusy bergamot, floral notes of hibiscus and water lily, and warm, rich cedar and musk.

If you are on the lookout for an additional scent, you may visit the Bulgari counters and try this scent on. The thing about Bulgari fragrances is they are easy to wear since they’re not too strong. They’re also beautiful on top of any dresser.
