Try a New Scent With Nuts Cream Perfume

I love discovering new products that are a little bit different. The Cream Perfume Company is the creator of Nuts,  cream perfume that concentrates the fragrance oils in a combination of beeswax and sweet almond oil instead of in alcohol. This is much better for the skin and lasts a long time.

The cream perfumes ($19.95 USD for .35 oz) are very environmentally friendly. They use 100% natural ingredients and some of the perfumes are 100% organic. They also come in a cute little container (that resembles an acorn, hence the name Nuts) made out of residual wood from small mills.  

My two favorite scents (so far) are:

Mango Poudre:  “Truly seductive scents of mango and cassis balanced with timeless jasmin and candy sugar accord. A tropical favorite with sandalwood, musk and vanilla.” This scent starts out sweet, but when you breath it in you get the depth of the sandalwood and musk. I love this now, but think it will be even nicer when it gets hot this summer.

Ylang Ylang d’amore” “Enjoy exhilarating scents of ylang ylang, mandarin and jasmine in this classic perfume. Trailed by notes of apricot, cedarwood, orange flower, patchouli and musk.” I love this powdery, spicy fragrance. It is very exotic, but soft enough to wear day or night time.

You can purchase these fun, purse-sized fragrances at www.kaponga.com, or look for them at Sephora. Go ahead, try something new!

Kenzo’s Eaux de Fleurs Spring Fragrance Collection

Kenzo Eau de Fleur de The - Tea
Kenzo Eau de Fleur de The - Tea

Kenzo is known for their lovely fragrances such as Flower by Kenzo and Kenzo Amour. They have just introduced a new fragrance line for Spring: the Eaux de Fleurs Collection. The Kenzo website describes the collection as; “Kenzo flower waters are picked from Japanese trees. Each eau de toilette in the collection evokes a delicate trail of tree blossom. Three new fragrances made of natural, clear and streamlined floral notes. Every year, Kenzo will enrich this collection by picking another flower.” There are three fragrances in this collection:

Eau de Fleur de Soie Silk (1.7 oz , $55.00)  — a silk flower fragrance that is “a crimson floral note with a tender, fruity heart.”

Eau de Fleur de Magnolia (1.7 oz , $55.00) — a magnolia fragrance that is “a radiant floral bouquet, bursting with hesperidian notes.”

Eau de Fleur de The –  Tea (1.7 oz , $55.00) — a green tea fragrance that is “a floral concoction with notes of green tea and a hint of musk.”

I have only tried the Eau de Fleur de The – Tea and I think it’s wonderful. It is a very bright, yet soft musk. It’s not too sweet, which is perfect for me. I think the Silk or the Magnolia scents would be wonderful if you’re in the mood for something more flowery or fruity.   The tea fragrance is great for every day. I get lots of compliments at work when I wear it.
 
I think it’s fun that they will be introducing a new addition to the collection each year. I am looking forward to next year’s offering! Visit their website at www.kenzousa.com to purchase or locate as store to try these fabulous scents.
