Favourite Fragrances for Fall 2011


click the image to enlarge!



Ever have a hard time picking out the right fragrance? No problem! LVP's guide to some of the best fragrances for Fall 2011 is right here in your hand and is going to make your life just that much easier!

Perfumes are a necessity of course, but also work great as gifts (especially when you have absolutely no idea what to give that special someone)

Not a fan of very sweet, nor very spice & overpowering fragrances, this set is just perfect - but also keeping in mind the season, this lot mostly consists of more spicy-ish scents rather than the summer florals. Enjoy!

A Small Hello From Paris..Well Kind Of..

My father was just in Paris for a business trip...just towards the end of Paris Fashion Week, lucky him...however that is irrelevant, as he knows as much as about PFW as I do about finance and all that he does, which is 1.5 on a scale of 1 - 10!

However, he did come back with a very special treat!

Fresh LaDurée Macaroons!!
Coffee, Chocolate, Vanilla, Raspberry.... Delish!
See the missing one, yeah that's the one I had in my mouth while taking the picture!



He was also in the city the day of DVF's Fragrance Launch so I sent him over to Sephora, Champs Élysées on the day of. Unfortunately he didn't make it in time for catching a glimpse of Diane herself (according to her twitter, I understood she was there) but he did catch some of the dancing that still went on after Diane had left.

He also brought back a sample of the perfume for me, and I'll tell you, it is 'LVP approved'. I'm usually very picky with scents, avoiding too spicy and too sweet scents. This scent is..different, in the good kind of way. Very mature, and a perfect blend of floral and musk scents!


He also brought back a sample of Miss Dior Cherie, which is just as elegant smelling as it's ads - which I've also always loved







Last but not least, he brought back samples of a 'traditional soap' (meaning it's made the good ol' fashioned way) which is made mostly of vegetable oil



These are the two that he got as samples.
Olive/Lavender & Coquelicot.

I already love the smell of the Olive/Lavender one & I can't wait to try them out. Who knows, it might even make it to a new feature LVP is thinking of starting 'Tried and Tested'...Stay tuned!!

- Come back tomorrow for Part 2 of the 10 Commandments for Youthful Skin
