That’s so sweet that your honey bought you some Chanel for V-Day! He’s a keeper!

I agree with you – Eau Fraiche is fantastic. I really like it too! I don’t have it but I think I’ll eventually cave in and get that one (it’s destiny, I tell ya), but for the heck of it I’m going to sniff around to see if there’s anything else out there that also moves me for spring!

My boyfriend bought me Chanel Chance for Valentine’s Day and I was about to return it as the original scent gives me a headache, but it turns out that Chanel has come out with a new version, Chance Au Fraiche, and that’s what he had bought for me. I tried it and I love it. The clear bottle contains a mint green hued perfume and it smells great. Definitely a fresh scent to try for spring. Hope you enjoy it as much as I am.

LOL, I like your handle! Anyway, I’m kinda jealous that Enchanted Orchid works so well for you. I was so stoked about all of the notes and was bummed that I couldn’t pick up any jasmine (one of my favorite floral scents). It really is amazing how one’s skin and body chemistry can change a scent…

I’m glad you found the blog and that you enjoy it. Hope we get to talk again soon!

OHHH, I like Fresh fragrances – apricot and fig sounds yummy. I do like Vera Wang so I’ll give Princess a sniff.

Do you like Clinique’s Happy? That’s my ultimate citrus fragrance.

It’s so amazing to me how fragrances seem to have different chemistry with each and every one of us. I was walking through the mall just yesterday on a mission; to find a new fragrance that would make me smell irresistable, preferably floral. And as if by magic, I smelled something heavenly (like jasmin, I would have guessed at the time) in the air, I followed my nose, ended up at the local B&BW and found out it was the Enchanted Orchid collection my nose had fallen for. And what’s more is, I tried on almost each product in this collection, and it turns out it smells heavenly on me (usually, nothing smells really great on me so I was really happy!). And there was not the slightest hint of Play-Doh.

A counterexample: I tried Vera Wang’s Princess on a piece of test paper at Sephora’s the day before yesterday (I know, it sounds like I have a day job trying out fragrances…but trust me, I don’t ), and it smelled great on the paper. Once I tried it out on my own wrist, it pretty much smelled like rotten cucumber.

My point is; scents really seem to be like falling in love; the individual chemistry just should be there, I guess.

P.S. just stumbled on this blog and I’m really enjoying reading it, so thanks There should definitely be more blogs on beauty products!!
