Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana

Light Blue by Dolce & Gabbana is a fragrance that has a lot of sentimental value to me. Years ago, probably in like 2006 or 2007, me and my friend were at a store just buying random makeup and skincare products, and I saw Light Blue sitting on the shelf. I tried it on and it smelled good, but it strike me as something SO amazing that I had to buy it then and there. My friend, however, thought it smelled amazing, and bought a big ole bottle of it as a random present for me :] I wore Light Blue HEAVILY that whole Summer, but then I wore it just randomly after Summer was over, because it's not really a Fall-Winter kinda perfume. So now, whenever I wear this stuff, I instantly think about that Summer. Lol funny how a scent can conjure up so many memories. It's a gorgeous scent, with notes of Sicilian Citron, Bluebell, Granny Smith Apple, Jasmine Sambac, Bamboo, White Rose, Cedarwood, Amber, Musk. I just love how fresh and clean this stuff smells. It's not overwhelming at all, and it's actually kind of up-lifting if you know what I mean. I love this stuff :] Do you? Do you ever associate memories with fragrances?

L.A.M.B. "L" Perfume by Gwen Stefani

"L" L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani is a very fresh, clean fragrance that came out in 2007. I especially like wearing this fragrance during the Summer months because it's so refreshing. I don't wear it often, but when I do, I go all out. I like to layer this scent to make it last longer - I use the body wash and body lotion too if I know I'll be wearing this scent that day. 

It's a very floral scent with just a touch of fruitiness that has been described as being a fusion of masculine and feminine. It's main notes are "sparkling green freshness” and “leafy water hyacinth." Additional notes include freesia, pear, violet leaves, jasmine, rose, lily of the valley, sweet pea, orange blossom, frangipani blossom, peach skin, heliotrope and musk. I love that this scent is fun and light but also lasts for a while on the skin, and the dry-down is lovely<3333 The packaging for this perfume is just SO gorgeous... It's a huge square-shaped rasta-colored (red/green/yellow) bottle with a  gigantic golden cap and L.A.M.B.'s  "L" theme is very apparent throughout the packaging. Anyone else out this love this stuff? Or do you find it to be a bit too strong? What do you think of the bottle? Let me know :]
