Blah, That's the best word I can use to describe Sarah Jessica Parker's Covet fragrance. For one it's kinda strong. Some of the notes in the fragrance are: top notes of wet greens, geranium leaves, Sicilian lemon, lavender and chocolate; a heart of honeysuckle, magnolia and muguet, and a drydown of musk, vetiver, bois de cashmere, teakwood and amber. It has all these notes but mostly you smell the sicilian Lemon and greens and it reminded me of a citronella candle that people tend to keep outside during summer barbarques. Not a pleasant smell!

This fragrance was one that I wore constantly in high school. It was one of the first fragrances I ever owned. I think it's a great introduction to perfume for young ladies. I really like that it's a clean kinda floral scent. I think Ralph Lauren makes some gets perfumes that are universally flattering for women. Though I have to say that Ralph seems to be for the younger crowd. But it's a great fragrance that I still enjoy. It was this fragrance that really got me to love fragrance and start experimenting with different ones.

I wore this all the time in high school. If you love fresh and clean scents then you will love this fragrance. It reminds me of fresh air at the beach. A very refreshing summer scent, but I used to wear it nearly everyday. It's pretty cheap, but the only thing is that it does not have the longest staying power. Other than that it's great!

I had never really tried any Givenchy fragrances before Very Irresistible. I love the smell of roses, but it's hard to find a rose scent that doesn't smell too well.. old ladyish. But the different variations of roses made it a lovely rose feminine scent. It's a rather girlie scent that probably is best suited for summer but really can be wore anytime. It's described a fruity/floral scent but I have to confess that it smells much more floral with very little fruity scent detected. This is a great light scent and it's worth a sniff the next time you're at the mall.

I really wanted to like this perfume. I was even recommended to try this fragrance based upon my likes from a friend that happens to be quite knowledgable of perfumes. I read other reviews from this fragrance and one said that they got a sad and dreary vibe from the fragrance and I have to agree. But more importantly I thought this frangrance smelled rather strong and masculine. There's just this undeniably masculine aspect to this scent that I just don't care for. It's unfortunate because I really wanted to like this scent. I like the idea that it's supposed to simulate the 6 month growth process of the iris, but it just doesn't work for me. It get points for creativity though.

I've tried both the blue and the green one now. They kill 99% of germs that cause tartar, gingivitis, and bad breath. It does a great job of making my mouth feel fresh and clean without the burn of alcohol. Only bad thing is you have to rinse out your sink or you get green or blue bits of mouthwash in your sink, but it's really not that big of a deal.

So there I stood at the toothpaste aisle trying to decide on the regular crest pro health or the new night rinse. I looked at the ingrediants they were the same active ingrediant of Celtyplyridinium Chloride .07%. They both claim to kill 99% of germs that cause plague, gingivitis, and bad breath without the burn of alcohol. The only differant I could detect after a good 15 minutes of comparing back and forth was the color and flavor. The night rinse is clear while the other pro health mouthwashes are blue or green. So don't believe the hype it's pretty much the same thing really. Though Crest Pro Health is a good mouthwash I don't like it when companies market practically the same product in different packaging and try to get consumers to pay more for it or think they getting something different. I am not fooled Crest!

I like this scent. I smelled it at Spehora and thought it was a great fruity floral scent that would be prefect for the summer. It's unmistakeably feminine and sweet. The only down side is that it's not long lasting at all. I sprayed some on a cardboard strip and was comparing it to other frangrances to decide which to purchase. After a few minutes I must admit I could hardly smell the scent on the cardboard strip anymore and was rather disappointed.

I happen to love woody floral fragrances and this one fits the bill. Immediately after spraying this you pick up the citrusy scents and the iris. The dry down is a lovely woody floral that's also a bit spicy. They say this fragrance is aimed at a younger audience I can pick up that vibe from the fragrance. It's also an eau de parfum which means it's that it will stay with you longer. It's young and yet sophisticated as all Burberry scents tend to be.

I used to use this shampoo and conditioner set when I had drandruff. It's like a high end version of head and shoulders only better. This stuff feels great it stimulates your scalp and makes it feel tingly. The peppermint and tea tree oil combe smell great and make your hair feels so refreshed and clean. I really did help with my dry scalp to hydrate it and prevent flakes. I really enjoy this product and makes washing your hair a fun, feel good experience.
