I Just ADORE J'Adore By Dior!!!

J'Adore is a very elegant, sensual fragrance. I remember why I bought this stuff... It was a very long time ago, I was just a kid. And I saw the commercial for this stuff... The model in it was so gorgeous, and she was bathing in like... liquid gold. And she was covered in gold paint and wearing a gold dress with lots of gold jewelry. Hahahaha I loved it!!! When I saw this stuff in the actual store, I bought it just because I loved the commerical so much!! I loved it- Of course it smelled absolutely amazing, being Dior. It has notes of Mandarin, Champaca Flowers, Ivy, African Orchid, Rose, Violet, Damascus Plum, Amaranth Wood, Blackberry Musk.
It's sexy, very floral, and kinda fruity. I miss this stuff, I haven't had a bottle in a while. I use my mom's sometimes, but I guess it's to pick up another bottle for my collection!!! So any of you out there absolutely adore J'Adore!??!?  <333333

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?

Chance by Chanel

Chanel by Chanel has been one of my off again on again favorite perfumes for years- I'm surprised at how long this stuff has been around!!! Lol time flies when you're smellin good :] Okay seriously, I love how sophisticated and refined this fragrance is. A lot of people called it feminine and flirty... I guess it is, but I just love how this stuff makes you feel when you're wearing it. It's such a rich and refreshing perfume, but it's not in any way overwhelming. It's a fruity floral- It's notes are white musk, hyacinth and citron, pink pepper, jasmine, fresh vetiver, orris absolute and amber patchouli. Chance is very elegant, and you're guaranteed to get lots of complements when you wear it :] Does anyone else love Chance?? <333

YSL Parisienne: A Lovely Floral Fragrance

YSL Parisienne is a gorgeous, very sensual fragrance. It's a really pretty floral fragrance, with notes of blackberry, damask rose, and sandalwood. I got a small bottle of it when it first came out, but I've used it all up since then. I definitely need to buy another bottle of this stuff. It's just really nice to spritz on every once in a while. Parisienne's not a terribly unique fragrance, but it's light and delicate, and dries down very nicely, so it's worth having around. It's also a plus that the bottle is absolutely gorgeoussss :] Anyone else like YSL's Parisienne? Tell me what you think about it!!

Flowerbomb by Viktor & Rolf

Flowerbomb is a fragrance that's been getting a lot of buzz lately. It's a nice Floriental/Gourmand scent. I like it, but I wouldn't say it's my favorite. It's a very pleasant perfume, with notes of Sambac Jasmine, Centifolia Rose, Cattleya Orchid, Ballerina Freesia, and Patchouli. Yeah, it smells good. But it's not exactly all that unique. It comes in an extremely gorgeous grenade-shaped bottle, but the scent itself is just mediocre. A lot of people have described Flowerbomb as being very overwhelming. I feel like that's what Viktor & Rolf were kind of going for though... Think about it... Flowerbomb- An explosion of flowers. Yeah, I guess that's kind of what it smells like. It's not too strong though. It's pretty versatile so I like to wear it when I'm doing things around the house or going out. It's a really nice addition to a fragrance collection but I don't think it's one of those perfumes you absolutely must have... What do you think about Flowerbomb?

Sentiment by Escada

Sentiment by Escada was launched over a decade ago in the year 2000. I remember how I was SO obsessed with this stuff when it first came out. I loved it because it was so light and fresh. The bottle is long and heart shaped, and it just smells... PINK!!! It's a flowery scent with notes of mandarin, iris, vanilla and sandalwood, rich and warm. I like that this fragrance is something you can wear everyday... It's not really really strong or overly-flowery, and it's a very classy yet youthful fragrance. I can easily recommend this stuff to everyone :]

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 :]
