Perfume Reviews + Swaps/Giveaways

Michael by Michael Kors

Top notes are freesia, incense, chinese osmanthus and tamarind; middle notes are tuberose, iris, peony, orris root and arum lily; base notes are musk, cashmere wood and vetiver.

This is a very sweet white floral. The tuberose is almost a gardenia dupe. Josh cried almost instant headache, so I didn't leave it on long enough for the dry down, but I could just start to smell the woodiness of the iris start to tamp down the florals before I scrubbed it.

Clean (the original)

This soap-inspired scent combines litsea cubeba, orange, sweet lime, pink grapefruit, passion lily, rose geranium, and white musk and is perfect for women who enjoy crisp, subtly. It opens with a bright burst of freshness and dries down to a simply CLEAN scent.

This does smell fresh and clean. Very bright and citrusy but very sweet (must be the sweet lime). I don't get any orange or grapefruit, but I do smell rose geranium (yummy) and soap. Clean is a good descriptor. I would like to smell this on someone else, but it's not for me. I passed it to a friend.

BPAL Rapunzel

Angel’s trumpet, bois de rose, orris, and wild lettuce.

I really like this. It smells green and sweet and a little of rose. Josh detects a note of ginger. It's a keeper!



I would prefer to swap, but I didn't get many takers last time, so even if you don't have anything to swap, the following are up for grabs. At this point, I'd rather get these gone than wait on a swap.

And they came! (Yesterday, I'm a day late posting this.) New Orleans took a hike in the bag, but the last few drops were enough for me to decide I will most likely splurge on another imp to make a decision on a bottle. (Though, it has been over 105 the last few days, so I'm not surprised at least one of them gave.)

Everyone else was safe and sound after a clean up. :D
