Starting at midnight on Saturday April 6th, is the Scents of Summer Philosophy TSV on QVC.
I haven't exactly been pulled by the last two or three collections, however, I'm seriously considering ordering this one. It's reminiscent of the past December sets they bring out in the fact that it's focused on bath and body as well as fragrance, as opposed to skin care.

Included are:
*4oz spray fragrance
*5.8oz satin finish body oil mist
*7oz body polishing scrub
*16oz 3in1

Note: You have a choice between Summer Grace or Falling In Love Summer. There's also a single shipment or auto-delivery, which would offer a second shipment in about 90 days.

Philosophy isn't the best when describing their scents but I'll try:
Summer Grace=reminds me of the beach with it's light coconut notes
Falling In Love Summer=a mix of Summer Grace with the sweetness of berries mixed in

While this is priced at $79.76 (not sure if easy pay will be available), it actually comes to $96.50 with the addition of tax, shipping, and handling. While I haven't done the math for each separate piece, it looks like a good value, especially considering the spray and 3in1 together would cost about $70-$80.

According to the email I received, the show times are scheduled for 12-2AM, 3-4AM, 2-4PM, 6-8PM, and 10-Midnight.

If you're interested, check out one of their shows throughout the day or click here for the one-time shipment or here for the auto-delivery.

Considering the fact that I missed out on Falling In Love Summer last year, I might have to hint around that this would make a great Mother's Day gift ;)

As always, I thank you for visiting my blog :)

Simply Divine

With the warm weather approaching, I switched fragrances.
I love my Betsy Johnson TooToo but, in my opinion, it was a little heavy and sweet for the Spring and Summer. Over the past few days I've been wearing Philosophy's (You Are) Divine.

I received it as a Christmas present and originally felt it was to sophisticated for everyday use but I am in love with this fragrance. It's so perfect for the warmer season as it starts sweet but dries light and very pretty.

~Notes~
I have had no luck in finding a list of notes, however, to me it starts with a grapefruit scent and works it's way down to a mixture of lemon, vanilla, and a light floral.

~Overall View~
I'm not sure if the idea of this came out before or after Coty bought the company but I am incredibly impressed. Not only is there a difference in the bottle, but the fragrance itself. It's certainly more mature than all the other Love/Grace scents. I don't know what they did differently but I hope they continue this process with the rest of the products. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely adore all of the fragrances but it is disappointing that they never last longer than a few minutes after the initial spraying. This one stays with me a long time, but still has the signature "clean" scent to it.

The way it's looking, I think I'll be wearing this one for quite a while.

This is exclusive to QVC until Dec. 2012 and can find more information on it HERE

Review: Betsey Johnson's Too Too

I feel the need to start by saying I'm in love with this fragrance!!!!!

My fiance' is really sweet-he bought me a ring for Valentines Day but according to the jewelry store my finger is abnormally small so it had to be sent away to get resized. Feeling bad, he surprised me with the new Too Too perfume.

This was love at first sniff....it's sweet, girly, and oh so yummy!
According to Sephora.com it has notes of passion fruit, pink musk, ginger, strawberry, tuberose, jasmine, oudwood, patchouli, and black vanilla. In my opinion I'm mostly able to pick out a sweet berry smell. It reminds me a lot of Philosophy's Falling In Love.

What I really like is that it lasts a long time and you just need a little bit. I have the rollerball and can tell it'll last a while.

This is exclusive to sephora and ranges in price from $18-$82. You can find more info about the product HERE.

Gift Spotlight: Philosophy

I was pleasantly surprised when I opened these gifts....

~Christmas Cookies Trio~

Amazingly enough, this is a set that I had never seen before, a set of three 16oz 3in1s of Christmas Cookie, Pink Frosted Cut-Out, and Goody Graham Cracker. Apparently this was exclusive to QVC and was only on the air a couple times (both in which they quickly sold out). Upon taking a further look for this post, I found that it is no longer available. I am beyond thrilled to have this because last year I missed out on the Cookies for Santa set and was really disappointed when I couldn't find it this season.

The scents are exactly like their names:

*Christmas Cookie smells exactly like a buttery sugar cookie

*Pink Frosted Cut-Out (to me)almost has a strawberry like scent to it

*Goody Graham Cracker smells just like a graham cracker

In all three you can pull out the ingredients (butter, sugar, cinnamon, etc) and smells so yummy! As with the other Philosophy food scents, these do not disappoint. For an added bonus, the recipe for Christmas Cookies and Pink Frosted Cut-out are on the labels. 

~You Are Divine~

I literally screamed when I opened this one. This perfume is exclusive to QVC until Dec. 2012. The few times I had watched it I mentioned to my MIL (another Philosophy addict) how difficult that was because I was tempted to order but at the same time wanted to be able to smell it first. 

The scent itself is amazingly beautiful. It's nothing like the Grace or Love perfumes (as wonderful as they are)  -this certainly stands apart.  It's so sophisticated and classy not to mention it lasted all day. This is one I'll probably end up using for special events as opposed to everyday. Click HERE for a more in depth product description.
