My new scent

For over 4 years now I have been looking for the perfect perfume that filled two necessary requirements. It had to be one that I loved as well as my husband. I was really looking for a smell that would captivate him, I wanted him to hug me, notice the smell me and smile!

I guess this is really what we are looking for from most of our purchases whether it is a new outfit, piece of jewelry, new undergarments or a new hair do. We want it to be the one that instantly catches our husband's attention. I have learned by now though that men aren't as observant as we would like them to be about such things.

One of the biggest problems is finding one that is floral or fruity enough for me without reminding me of the days when over layering yourself with Bath and Body Works products was the thing to do. I am really not a must girl and I don't want one that is overly serious. I want to be able to throw on an amazing outfit and match the way I am feeling with a scent.
This is what I found about a month ago...


We were walking around an adorable boutique and stumbled across a few pretty bottles of perfume. I knew that I loved sweet pea and that men were suppose to love vanilla but I was still shocked that he actually liked it!!
The best way I can describe the scent to you is fun and young with out being too over the top. It was actually what I had hoped that Wink by Lilly Pulitzer would smell something like before I found that it was way too serious smelling for me.
Click on the picture if you would like to go to their website. There are some other scents on it that I would love to smell.

Now I keep it on a hot pink catchall tray that is directly next to my front door so that I will actually remember to throw some on as I run out the door. My husband has even started commenting that I smell nice when I wear it!
I have obtained my ultimate Goal! He noticed and loves it!
