Getting ready for your wedding is a long and time-consuming process. Choosing your dress, your makeup and your venue are enough. So, we are here to help you with our top five favorite perfumes for a bride.
* Take your time choosing your perfume, this scent will always remind you of your wedding day.
* Make sure your partner enjoys the scent since you will be standing and dancing together the whole night.
* Try to choose a fragrance that does not clash with the scent of your bouquet.
Now let’s go through the list of our favorite wedding perfumes:
1. Vera Wang Eau De Parfum
This vibrant and flirtatious scent is a blend of Gardenia, Lotus, Iris, and White Stephanotis.
2. Elie Saab L’eau Couture
“Here, Orange Blossom unveils an unexpected facet, inspired by the fleeting period when the newly-bloomed blossoms exude slightly almond notes. As its traditional honey-like aromas are subdued, Orange Blossom inhabits the fragrance like a poetic whisper. Its subtly textured floral freshness, upheld by intricate transparency, is an echo of sun-kissed femininity.”
3. Annick Goutal Rose Splendide
This feminine fragrance’s notes are Rose, Musk, Magnolia, & Pear.
4. Creed Love In White
This harmonious and feminine scent is a blend of South Spain Orange Juices, Italian Jasmine, French Riviera Narcissus, Tonkin Rice, Egyptian Iris, and Guatemala Mountain Magnolia.
5. Gucci Bamboo
Fragrances notes are Italian Bergamot, Casablanca Lily, Ylang Ylang, Comoros, and Sandalwood.
My honorable mentions are Marc Jacobs Daisy Dream and, Flowerbomb. The reason I didn’t add them in the list they are so popular that many of the guests may be wearing them. If that’s not a deal breaker for you give them a try too.
Wish you all the best. 👰

We have been collecting our perfume bottles to do a series of DIY projects. I personally think these bottles are too beautiful to be thrown out, so let’s recycle them.
First Project is a decal display. This one is the easiest one.
All you need is empty perfume bottles and a clean wall. Using a mounting tape, tape your bottles to the wall in your own design. This works for a bathroom, beauty room or even a bedroom.
This is a sample picture to show you can do this with as little as 3 bottles and the more you have the more designs you can make. You can play with colors to make it more interesting.
I hope these fun little projects help you to save and recycle your fragrance bottles.
It is the last Thursday of May which means we are back again with another Empties.

Iris is the key ingredient of the perfume, surrounded by orange blossoms and jasmine in the heart. The composition’s opening provides fruity flavors of black currant and pear, while the base is warm, gourmand and powdery due to almond-like accords of tonka bean, praline, patchouli, and vanilla.

Jubilation XXV is an example of a true Masterpiece of the Niche fragrance industry!
Jubilation XXV has this remarkable fruitiness right out of the bottle. It’s wonderfully interesting as it forms a slightly sour-bitter accord with the coriander, cinnamon, clove, and a perfectly zesty orange citrus…
This initial accord is soon joined by amazing Amouage signature frankincense! The magical resin immediately gives the fruit accord some weight, pulling it back from sweetness and focusing on the spices… These are all very distinct notes, but they are singing in a five-part harmony voiced by angels! Into the heart with rose and more resin from guaiac-wood, honey, orchid, everything in balance with the frankincense front and center but never stealing the show.
As Jubilation XXV develops, more resinous, more opulent notes are added to the mix – moss, cedarwood , and oud – but they are tamed by musk, sweet myrrh, patchouli, and salty hints of ambergris… The unique maple syrupy/curry accord of immortelle flower reveals a hint of leather in the deep and gorgeous dry-down.
Jubilation XXV is a vibrant symphony of rich Regal notes and complex accords, it is divinely sumptuous, luscious and harmonious to perfection! It is also a bright, colorful, and happy incense fragrance, with a unique personality – it comes and goes, it plays hide and seek, but at all times it is well-behaved and never intrusive… The incense seems to come alive on your skin and reads your moods, receding into the background when not needed, stepping forward when required to soothe your soul. Jubilation XXV is the quintessential incense fragrance, bar-none. This one is a must have for fragrance lovers, a true MASTERPIECE!

Let’s talk about the Difference Between EDP, EDT, Extrait, EDC and splash.
PERFUME 101 – Concentration
The concentration of a fragrance refers to the concentration of aromatic compounds (pure perfume oils) in the solvent; in fine fragrances this it is typically ethanol or a mix of water and ethanol, as denoted on the list of ingredients/allergens on the box. For the most past, this also determines the longevity (how long) the fragrance/perfume will last… Although general guidelines are presented in the ratio of aromatic compound percentage/concentrations, different perfume houses (companies) assign and adhere to different amounts of essences/oils to each of their perfumes. However, the chart below is basically a rule in which the majority of Fragrances companies are following these days, details below:
concentration-perfume
Perfume Extract (Extrait): The highest level of concentration, typically sold only in the top-of-the-line fragrance families. Concentration levels are between 16% and 40% at the highest point, with 20% being the typical level of concentration.
Eau de Parfum: The next highest level of fragrance and perfume concentration. At this level, fragrance concentration is between 15% and 20% with 15% being typical. This level is also sometimes called Eau De Perfume or Millesime. For example, the house of CREED releases almost all of its scents in the Millesime strength/concentration. This is the strength level preferred by most upper class and rich households. The best brands typically release their fragrances at this concentration level.
Eau de Toilette: This is the strength of most fragrances you will find at department stores frequented by the middle class (think J.C. Penney, Macy’s, etc.). A typical Eau de Toilette may cost between $65 to $95, making it affordable, therefore more attainable.
Eau de Cologne: Typically, these are citrus type scents that work well in low concentrations because they have no base notes. An Eau de Cologne has somewhere between 2% and 5% fragrance oils, with 5% being common.
Splash and After Shave: Products sold as after shaves or splashes have very little fragrance and it will quickly dissipate because the concentration levels of aromatic compounds stand at only 1% to 3%.
