Scent of A Woman - My Closet Friends

It’s rainy days once again and this is the time when I appreciate scents the most.  I love scents but  you can never make me wear one during summer here in the Philippines especially when the temperature reached 35ยบ.  Except of course during occasions wherein I will need to mingle with people, shake hands and make “beso-beso”. 

Here’s sharing to you some of my favorite scents that I had fun of taking photo one time that I found them neatly lined up in my closet which is a rare instance.  They are usually messily stack together in a basket inside my closet.  These are from my previous stocks. I haven’t check what are the scents in my closet right now though I spotted CK.

MyScents

1. Dolce & Gabbana for Women by Dolce & Gabbana
This first women’s scent creation from Dolce & Gabbana is somewhat perfect for my taste (or smell should I say).  I am biased with scents with a citrus note.  This Dolce & Gabbana is perfect for me because I found the scent combined with a note of flower, herbal and soft-musk.  Aaah! exactly what I’m looking for. 

What makes me love it more is the simple but classy packaging – the red top (pour femme) cover in sturdy rectangular bottle makes it my favorite “grab” from my messy perfume basket. 

2. Glow by JLo
Honestly, I am more interested with the bottle design than the scent.  I’m guilty with this bottle because I stripped it off with the cutest and sexiest bottle accessory which is a “bottle-necklace” like accessory in silver cord with “JLo” initial in Swarovski crystals.  I strip it off and put the accessory on my black Nokia passion phone.  It is supposed to look like this.

I hope I can find a photo of my favorite Nokia cell phone wearing this accessory so I can share them with you as well.

Glow is the first fragrance by Jennifer Lopez and it became very popular which inspired other celebrities to launch their own fragrance line.

3. Victoria’s Secret Eau De Toilette Spray and Body Mist
My all time favorite!  This is not only my closet friend but also my purse’ best friend thus I prefer the 30ml bottle.  This is my “wear anytime, anywhere” scent.  I wear this even during summertime.  That explains why the bottle from my stock is almost empty.  I like all the scent in the Secret Garden line but my most favorite is Love Spell.

4. True Star by Tommy Hilfiger
I’m not sure why this scent makes me feel confident when I’m wearing it.  I was thinking maybe because it is being endorsed by one of the most influential celebrity – Beyonce?  I don’t know.  I simply love its aquatic fresh and fruity sweet scent with a note of citruses and musk.

5. Dune Dior for Women
Actually, my old/all time favorite scent is Poison by Christian Dior.  I don’t have it in my closet for quite a while because I can’t find one when I was looking for it and nobody is giving me one for quite a long while (paging sponsor friends lol).

Then I found Dune!  and I fell in love with its scent too. I don’t know how to exactly describe Dune’s scent but I’m sure there’s a lot of flowery scent in it including the rare ylan-ylang.  All I know is that I am liking it because I found in it the same sweet scent that I found in “Poison”.

There it is!  Some of my favorite scents.  I will try to share more in the future.  What about you? What is your favorite scent?

PR1 in Two Months and Four Entries? I’m Lucky Indeed!

What? This blog is Page Rank 1?

With just two months of being live and barely four blog entries my page rank went up to PR1!  Well I’m not complaining (grinning ☺).

I’m really happy for this ranking because there was a long absence of post before my entry of yesterday.  The good thing is that, I went back working on this blog without me knowing that it is already in Page Rank 1.  Now I am more inspired to maintain this site and to aim on a higher PR.

Thank you to the mighty Google for this ranking but most of all THANK YOU to all my readers and followers!  You never left this blog and keep on supporting this while I was on posting break.  You guys really rock!  I promised you all a more worthwhile and exciting blogging experience on this site.

Having you all around makes me feel lucky and this blog is indeed a lucky one!

I’m back and Watch Out for My Upcoming Giveaways!

First off, I want to apologize for the long absence of post on this blog.  There’s a lot of reasons but to sum it all, it is because of the over used word called “busy”.  Well busy is a usual term in my world but the past month has been real crazy busy in my space!

I’m also guilty of considering to discontinue this blog.  I was worried that I may not be able to maintain due to lack of time.  But I thought about my readers and followers plus the encouraging messages I’m getting from my other blogs which are mostly looking forward to my continued writing and postings.  You guys rock!

Plus I’m really not a quitter.  Once I created something I always give it my best shot and make it grow. And most of all, I don’t have the heart to shelve this project especially that:
  • I know this is a promising site
  • there are number of people who are looking forward to my posts and giveaways
  • there’s a line up of good entry for this blog and I don’t want to put them into waste
  • giveaway sponsors keep coming (wink*)
So let the fun begin!  Giveaways are definitely coming soon!
