Scentbird Perfume Monthly Subscription

Press Sample Purchased By Me Affiliate Link By now we all know how much I love my monthly subscriptions. I currently have 4 for myself, my son has 2 (both gifts from me, I renew his every subs every Christmas and Birthday) and my boyfriend has 2. We get a lot of boxes delivered here monthly. While theirs are primarily game related, mine are all beauty related. One of my favorites though? Scentbird Perfume Monthly Subscription! I’ve been a subscriber of Scentbird now for 22 months (I am actually queued up to receive Lalique Fleur de Cristal this month!) and I love being able to try fragrances that I wouldn’t generally buy for myself due to price, or just not being sure how much I’ll love it. Of the 21 perfumes I’ve already received as a member of the subscription, 16 I ended up loving and 5 I gave to friends because…

Alter Ego Nail Enamels EgoMANia Men’s Fragrance Review

Press Sample Nick is the man behind my blog. He is the one in the background making sure everything runs smoothly, everything is up to date and if there is a blip – he will get up at 2am to fix it (and has before so I know this for a fact). From time to time he also reviews men’s items on my blog as well, and today is one of those days. Alter Ego Body Care Products sent him 3 fragrances from their new EgoMANia line. You can also check out the review on Nick’s blog, Separate Opinion. Now, onto his review: Today I am reviewing a new men’s scent line from Alter Ego Enamels called egoMANia. I received 3 new scents to try: Sharp Dressed Man, Woodworker, and Magic Man. I’m going to start off with the packaging and bottles of the Alter Ego Enamel egoMANia scents. All…

L’Occitane en Provence Cerisier Rouge Eau Intense Review

Purchased By Me It’s tax season for me right now which usually means overtime, which of course means extra cash in my account. This is usually when I start purchasing new brands to try and splurge a little more than usual. One brand I have been dying to try was L’Occitane and I am so glad I did. I made a fairly large purchase online (which was a gamble.. I’ve never tried their products before) and I made amazing choices. Today I am showing my favorite fragrance from my purchase, L’Occitane Cerisier Rouge Eau Intense. I originally added L’Occitane en Provence Cerisier Rouge Eau Intense to my cart figuring a cherry blossom scent was safe. I actually bought both cherry blossom scents they carried (I’ll be showing you the other one soon!) L’Occitane en Provence Cerisier Rouge Eau Intense is a perfect mix of fruit and floral. Neither are overpowering and…

British Sterling H.I.M. Reserve & Private Stock Review

Disclaimer H.I.M., which is short for ‘His Imperial Majesty’, is a subtle nod to King George VI who was one of only a few British Royals to hold that title and who’s military background led him to work tirelessly to strengthen the image and resolve of England after World War II. Every month I receive an amazing box of items to show you from Rite Aid. In my June Box, I received something for the men – British Sterling H.I.M. Reserve and Private Stock Colognes. Both are actually new to me, and I had never smelled them before this box arrived. I’m going to go through both colognes, share my thoughts… but if you want a guy’s view, make sure you go to the bottom of this post and click the link to Separate Opinion’s Blog so you can see what a guy thinks! British Sterling H.I.M. Reserve “Inspired by…
