NEW Perfume Review

                                             COCONUT MILK PARFUM
                                                   A Scent of Tropical Heaven


    If you live in the Midwest such as I do, reality has set in and the days of warm weather, I mean really warm weather is now the past. I love the change of the season and to be honest the extremely hot weather this summer was too much for me to handle.

   However those few days this summer that came with a glimpse of breeze made up for those far too many humid moments.

  It easy for me snuggle under a blanket and remember those more bareable warm days with tropical thoughts in a place filled with scents and serene visions.

  I was given a wonderful sample of COCONUT MILK PARFUM from the Perfect Perfume collection by perfumer, Sarah Horowitz at the Artisan Fragrance Salon in San Francisco.

  COCONUT MILK immediately blew me away with its all so real coconut. It is so real that you can actually drink it. It is a true to the core and it has an underlining amount of almond. it is just the right amount to bring the tropics into your living room.

 It reminds me of a smoothie. Lush, thick and the sillage lasts for many hours.

 What I love about the generosity of Sarah Horowitz Parfums is that COCONUT MILK and other fragrances can be purchased in so many options such as a Eau de Parfum, pure oil, body lotion, body and massage oil, bath & shower gel and more.

 I am a great fan of coconut milk! So to have a fragrance that I can wear as much as I love the drink is a win-win situation.

COCONUT MILK is not filled with a lot of notes but the notes in it are truly important and with Sarah talent she composes just the right about of accord(s) to take a complicated fruit to design into a luscious and vibrant scent.


 COCONUT MILK PARFUM consists of coconut accented by almond, orange blossom, gardenia, tonka bean accord, vanilla and Egyptian musk

NEW Fragrance Review


                                             
                                Artisan Fragrance Favorite Receives Awards
                                        FLEUR de CARAMEL Eau de Parfum


    When I was at the first annual ARTISAN FRAGRANCE SALON in July, I was surrounded by fabulous displays, breathtaking scents and eager smiles. None was more welcoming and inviting than Laurie Stern, natural perfumer and owner of VELVET AND SWEET PEA PURRFUMERY.

   I told Laurie who I was and she made me feel like I was a huge celebrity. I could not believe the overwhelming response! What I like about Laurie is that she is so real and genuine.

  Laurie told me all about her NEW creation FLEUR de  CARAMEL. I simply loved the display, the samples of FLEUR de CARAMEL were wrapped in old-fashioned candy wrappers and that colors of purple and fuchsia are simply divine. Laurie had no idea those are my two most favorite colors. So, I was sold immediately with the packaging.

 I cannot stress enough how packaging is so important with a product. It presents a gift that has been designed, well-thought out and executed into a magnificent creation.

When I got time to myself I sat down and put on FLEUR de CARAMEL. Even though there were many scents at the salon, FLEUR de CARAMEL whisked me off to another place when I was a young girl. I am crazy about the Tahitian vanilla that gives it that soft and sweet coverage.


FLEUR de CARAMEL is not just to be thought of as a candy scent but it has adult accords of cognac and frangipani. So it is a most definite for evening wear.

I love it on this time of the year. The air is crisp and the hint of caramel warms me up. It is simply a work of art in a fun and adventurous way.

Laurie was so dressed for the occasion in fun and frilly attire that truly represented VELVET AND SWEET PEA PURRFUMERY. It was so great to see the time and dedication Laurie puts into her perfumery. I was overwhelmed and inspired by this.
Laurie Stern

Laurie's hard work paid off when FLEUR de CARAMEL was judged and awarded with numerous  ARTISAN FRAGRACE SALON 2012 awards!

I was one of the judges and it was such a great honor to be apart of an event that showed me more than a scent but what actually goes behind making and marketing a company, product, a dream and what I mostly got from Laurie a fabulous smile.


FLEUR de CARAMEL ingredients...This is an Oriental Vanilla perfume that consists of Tahitian Vanilla, cognac, frangipani, jasmine, tuberose, sandalwood, mandarin orange and lily with infused grape alcohol.

PURCHASE OPTIONS: FLEUR de CARAMEL Eau de Parfum  6ml  $125.00; Eau de Parfum  8ml $295.00; Creme Perfume 10ml  $295.00 (comes in an emerald sterling silver jewel box and it is wrapped like candy) Breath-taking!!!
