In the words of the late Prince, “Ain’t no particular sign I’m more compatible with, I just want your extra time and your kiss!” Rihanna is making sure we all get the pucker time we deserve with her newest beauty release. Rejoice perfume lovers the Kiss By Rihanna Fragrance Is Finally Here!

Kiss By Rihanna Fragrance Is Finally Here

Like just gag us with a perfume bottle! We have loved RiRi’s past fragrances so we are confident that her latest edition is just as fabulous. Rihanna announced the exciting news stating, “I got something special for my ladies!! The third part of the ‘RiRi’ trilogy KISS is finally here. Available at Macy’s and online at Macys.com.”

Now a slight panic may have suddenly come over you and for good reason. Whenever Rihanna releases anything it sells out and FAST. So then, be sure to get over to Macy’s pronto. Nevertheless, as we all know Rihanna also always incorporates stunning visuals with her product releases. Here is a BTS (behind the scences) look on how the advertisement for the Kiss By Rihanna Fragrance came together.

Another fun fact about Rihanna’s newest fragrance is that she made it a family affair. Creativity and fabulous design aesthetic runs in the Fenty fambam. Auntie and niece chose the bottle design together. Rihanna shared a video with the caption, “Flashback to when Majesty picked how blue the perfume would be for KISS.” Beyond adorbs and major congrats to Rihanna on her newest fragrance release. Will you be copping one?

Arianne Suggs December 1, 2016December 1, 2016Leave a Comment

Well if we can’t party in Paris with supermodels we can at least smell like one who does! Right now several of the biggest names in the modeling industry are living it up in France as they take part in the filming of this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. We love Vicky, her annual runway extraganza and we love Paris. Therefore, naturally we are obsessed with Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume and you should be too!

Editor Pick: Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume

The Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume is the latest fragrance to make its way down the Vicky pipeline. The interesting thing about Victoria’s fragrances is that you never think they will be able to outdo past favorites. Yet, somehow they do it every single time.

The Paris fragrance is described as perfectly capturing the “scent of Parisian gardens.” Ugh, could that sound anymore dreamy? Moreover, it contains notes of white cedar wood, French cypress as well as night blooming jasmine. Together a tantalizing cocktail of fabulousness is produced.

If you have read our other product pick posts then you already know we are sticklers when it comes to packaging and design. If we’re spending money it better look like what we paid. With that said, Paris’ bottle is divine. It definitely reads luxury and deserves a spot on a vanity. Furthermore, the packaging is a winter wonderland complete with ribbons. In short, the packaging is as sleek as the bottle itself.

Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume

This seductive fragrance inspired by the City of Light is now available! However, dolls you may want to hurry on this one. Paris is limited edition so you’ll want to cop one before it completely sells out.

Let’s talk price point real quick. Each gorgeously packed Victoria’s Secret Paris Perfume retails for $65. Available online and in store. BUT another reason we love Vicky is because of all the freebies!

Right now if you buy Paris or any Bombshell fragrance (1.7 oz or larger) you will also receive a FREE Paris or Bombshell lotion. All you have to do is enter code TRYLOTION. Consider yourself officially tipped off (LOL). Enjoy Paris dolls, happy shopping and don’t forget Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2016 airs on CBS December 5th!

Victoria’s Secret Bombshell Luxe Eau de Parfum

Arianne Suggs November 4, 2015November 4, 2015Leave a Comment

Everything about this new fragrance from Victoria’s Secret is making us want to walk up to a Vickie’s cashier and yell, “Just take our money!” From the lovely bling bling presentation to the the rich citrus notes this fragrance would truly make any girl feel like a bombshell! Let’s take a quick tour of this luxurious perfume starting from the outside working our way inside.

First off, a round of applause for the Victoria’s Secret design team when it came to Bombshell’s creative and decadent look. The bottle boast an elaborate display of Swarovski crystals that immediately ooze old Hollywood glamour. Think of the old starlets who sat before their vanity mirrors giving themselves a quick spritz before walking onto set or meeting adoring fans. Oh yeah babes, can’t you just feel the allure!

Moreover, your $250 fragrance comes in a fancy black lacquered box that possesses a key just in case you want to lock away your valuable scented friend in crime. We love the touch of the lock box because it just adds to the limited edition feel. This is not your ordinary perfume, you are going to want to treat this one like the treasure it is and then some.

Besides, a great design the scent itself is a combination of florals and fruits that will make you feel like the good but bad girl (insert devil emoticon). The Victoria’s Secret Bombshell Luxe Eau de Parfum contains notes of purple passion fruit, shangri-la peony and vanilla orchid. So then, all and all you can not lose with this fragrance it is definitely one bangin’, sexy perfume for the winter.

Fashionable Mention: Marc Jacobs Decadence

Arianne Suggs September 15, 2015September 15, 2015Leave a Comment

It’s a bird, it’s a plane… no it is just the coolest fragrance design you have ever seen! We love when designers step outside the box and create a full on masterpiece. Of course half the reason fragrances sale so well is due to their captivating and alluring notes. However, for some of us a perfume’s overall packaging can also sway us to have the register ringing.

We are loving Marc Jacobs newest fragrance Decadence which comes packaged as a chic purse-shaped bottle. Jacobs says he wanted his fragrance to truly be indulgent. Indulgence means the act or practice of gratifying a desire or passion. Decadence includes sensuous notes of Bulgarian rose, papyrus woods as well as Italian plum. So then, give in to your desire to have one decadent fragrance.

Beauty Quickie: It happens to the best of us, we find a fragrance that we absolutely love and get a little too spritz happy. Therefore, what can you do to tone down very strong fragrance? Calm your perfume by dabbing on rubbing alcohol with a cotton ball onto your skin.
