I have never been much of a perfume wearer….
I don’t like the alcohol smell most of the have…
And I really haven’t found any that I could do without.
Body sprays are ok and I use them occasionally…
But again you have the alcohol smell.
I have been keeping my eye on Sweet Anthem’s website and finally broke down and ordered a few samples.
After reading each and every scent description I picked out five.
I don’t usually like to comment on the smell or scent of something simply because smelling fragrances is subjective and very personal.
What is strong to one person will be weak or non existant to another.
However I am very happy with the perfume oils and would love the share them here!
I strongly suggest if you order samples get several.
I know for me what fragrance I like depends on many things..
So if I have several to choose from I am pretty much guaranteed I will like one of them on any given day!
This is what I have:
Caroline (love this!)
Always got a dime for the record machine, never lets the music die. Celebrate every day with this bubbles-and-fizz chypre perfume.
Notes: Ambergris, Bergamot, Champagne, Jasmine, Lemon, Oakmoss, Sarsaparilla, Vanilla Sugar
Miho
Is this a mirage? Just a tiny drop will cure any summertime visions with this sweet and fruity floral perfume.
Notes: Coconut, Egyptian Musk, Lotus, Sweet Orange, Violet
Cordelia
Be the sweetest of all the petulas. Woodsy & fall-fresh top notes of plum and fir needle make way for lavender, black pepper, and a sultry coriander – all are thrown asunder by the most marine of all musks.
Notes: Ambergris, Black Pepper, Civet, Coriander, Fir Needle, Lavender, Plum, Sandalwood
Annebelle
Sweltering jasmine flowers cling to a cloud of osmanthus, and the spray of sea air and salty musk will surely keep you oceanside even though the summer respite has left us.
Notes: Jasmine, Osmanthus, Sea Salt, White Amber
Juliet
A starcross’d love – balmy jasmine sambac flowers and orange blossoms are encircled in enchanting spices. Nips of fresh mango and a faintly glimmering sea shore lay the scene in fair Verona.
Notes: Clove, Jasmine Sambac, Mango, Muskwood, Neroli, Pink Pepper, Tobacco
And I received a solid perfume sample of Elliot..which I also like!
I chose the above fragrances because it is summer and I wanted something that would fit with the season.
I can tell you they all do!
The scents are soft, subtle and last for most of the day.
I will be picking a couple of my favorites out of this batch and when ordering full size products I will also add a few more samples!
