VERY SEXY ORCHID ❤

Thank you ulit Mhara Lumanog ghorl for this!!!. Ang bango niya as in!!! Alam mo talaga mga bet kong scents 😍😍😍😍

Now let me warn you, this scent is strong and targeted for mature crowd. Kung sanay ka sa gourmand or mga fruity and fresh scents and gusto mo naman sumubok ng mga matured scents, huwag muna ito. I suggest unahin mo si Very Sexy Night 😅😅😅.

In my opinion, this and United Colors of Benetton's Fabulous Purple Violet are sisters. Siguro mas may depth lang si Very Sexy Orchid. It is a powdery fruity+floral with a sweetened patchouli as a base note. Hindi ko alam kung ano ang amoy ng real patchouli pero sa mga mists ko na merong patchouli (Black Amethyst, Into The Night, Little Black Party Dress, Rose Quartz, Sparkling Rosé etc.) pansin ko talaga ang similarities nila na earthy, rough, plant-y/herbally note and paired with some research parang may idea nako sa amoy niya. At small percentage mabango siya pero as the dominant note parang nakakahilo.

With the floral note, actually hindi siya ganon ka distinct but you can identify that it's floral. Heady and powdery and has a hint of green planty note similar sa mga lilies. Yung malalaking lilies na nasa bouquet na binebenta sa mall hehehe. But this is not a straight up floral. It's more complex, hindi lang floral. Yung sweetness naman na inadd kay patchouli I'm not sure pero parang vanilla? Para siyang raw vanilla. Hindi gourmand. It's warm and exotic then paired with patchouli adds depth to this fragrance. Hindi ko ma identify yung fruit note na nandito but it's quite similar sa vibe ni Fantasy by Britney.

This is a great deep and mature scent. The performance is surprisingly good hindi kagaya ng mga sisters niya. For me this and Rapture, sa mga naamoy ko, ang pinaka mature and sophisticated ang feels sa mga nirelease na premium scents ni VS. If you want a really strong and mature floral fragrance with a touch sweetness I highly recommend Very Sexy Orchid ☺☺☺

P.S. I don't know kung may amoy ba ang orchids 😅😅😅. Vanilla is an orchid pero sa beans ata ineextract ang oils nito. But I'm not completely sure. Baka may amoy talaga ang ibang orchids or baka embodiment lang ng sensuality ang orchid 😅😅😅.

SUNSHINE MIMOSA ❤

FRAGRANCE NOTES:

Bright, bubbly champagne & fresh citrus

Warning: medyo mahaba 😅😅😅

I almost gave this one up. Like at first spray na boringan talaga ako sa kanya and I decided na ibebenta ko agad to. I even asked myself "how come na naging best seller nila to?". Pero after a few days kinain ko lahat ng sinabi ko. 🤣🤣🤣

This is surprisingly good. I can't even express properly how much I love this scent. Not a favorite but definitely an enjoyable. Pinakamalapit na kaamoy nito (but still hindi talaga magkaamoy, mga ilang percent lang) in my opinion is Bombshell Summer. But Bombshell Summer is too sharp, "raw" and too "green" for my taste. And it has that, sorry sa term pero I can't describe it in any best way possible, fishy note.

Yes may stale, fishy note siya na ngayon ko lang na notice. Anyway, Sunshine Mimosa doesn't have that and it's more complex. It's fruity-floral, sweet, powdery and has green notes. Yung green notes na tinutukoy ko is what makes me associate Bombshell Summer with Sunshine Mimosa. Yung "walis ting-ting" na note 😅😅😅. Sorry na pero yun talaga naiimagine ko hehe. Pero it's softer and mas tolerable.

With the champagne note, I can't smell any. No fizzy or bubbly note. Kung meron man I'm sure natabunan ng ibang notes. Yung citrus naman is muted. Hindi siya ganon ka angat, it just adds enough sweetness to this scent. Ineexpect ko talaga na sister to ni Champagne Toast or Sun-washed Citrus. But no! Yes it is sweet but not candy-like. Citrusy but not juicy or zesty.

What I smell the most here na wala sa scent notes is yung fruity notes na present kay Romantic Wish at Chasing The Sunset/Love Spell La Créme. Pero nakatago siya sa background. I don't know how they do that but everytime na inaamoy ko to or everytime that I caught a whiff of this scent na rerecognize ko yung note na yon but for a brief moment lang.

Magkaiba sila ng amoy sa skin at sa shirt. Sa skin ko lamang ang fruity notes while sa shirt ko naman mas angat ang floral notes. I didn't liked it at first but eventually I fell in love with it 😊.

One more thing about the "mimosa", ang nakalagay na scent notes ay champagne at citrus. So nasaan si mimosa? Is it the mimosa cocktail or the mimosa flower? Kahit wala sa scent notes I think it is the mimosa flower since may powdery floral akong naaamoy. Sometimes medyo misleading si B*W. Ang pinopromote nila na scent note is mimosa cocktail pero ang nakalagay naman sa mga background design sa stores at online platform is mimosa flower. Bakit kaya di nalang nila ilagay kung ano ba talaga hahahaha. Anyway that's my review for Sunshine Mimosa. Yung performance nga pala is average lang and I think perfect to as an afternoon scent. Relaxing siya at nakakalift ng mood 😊😊😊😊

CONFETTI DAYDREAM & DAYDREAM COMPARISON ❤

Gaya ng review ko kay Confetti Daydream, ang pinagkaiba lang nila is ang top note pero yung structure ng scent profile nila is pareho lang talaga. Mas light at fresh si CD and mas noticeable rin yung floral notes nito. Daydream is too much for me. Lalo na sa top note, sasalubungin ka talaga ng napaka loud na cologne-y, fruit note na nakakaumay sa tamis. Ganito rin naman si CD pero at least after initial spray presko lang ang dating. Pero sa drydown, undeniably magkaaamoy talaga sila. I prefer CD than Daydream. Pero kung gusto mo yung super sweet go for Daydream. For me perfect tong summer scent. Yes malagkit kasi matamis pero yung fruity vibes niya bagay na bagay sa summer. Yung puro happy thoughts lang 😊😊

CONFETTI DAYDREAM ❤

FRAGRANCE NOTES:

Fresh Raspberries, Sparkling Pear & Blue Iris

This one is a very happy, bright, uplifting and bittersweet fruity+floral scent. For me wala tong masyadong pinagkaiba sa scent ni Daydream but Confetti Daydream is lighter, fresher and mas inangat yung floral notes. Mas wearable for me si Confetti Daydream. Sometimes I find it too juvenile pero may mga times rin naman na maganda siya gamitin lalo na kung gusto mo lang ng happy scent. If you love Sweet Pea, Hibiscus Guava Fresca and other fruity sweet scents then magugustuhan mo to 😊.

LOVE, MAYA: DELICATE FLORAL ROOM SPRAY ❤

Uunahan ko na ang review nito. I highly recommend this room spray. I sprayed it on the curtains and on air. Then a week later nung umuwi ako samin. May traces parin ng scent 😍😍😍. It smells so good plus it stays longer than any commercial room sprays or deodorizer I ever used. The scent is pretty simple. It smells like a 5 star hotel (char hahaha joke lang di pako nakakaexperience ng 5 star hotel hahaah). Pero seryoso, yung amoy ng hotels ganito ang amoy niya. Clean, fresh and parang bagong labang sheets. Slightly similar kay downy but this one is mas airy and hindi mabigat sa ilong. I can smell a bit of floral and a bit of pine tree like note. Wala akong ibang masabi kundi ang bango niya. I highly recommend this one 😊. You can purchase this online thru shopee but contact her first thru any social media platforms for the availability of the scents. They have wide range of selections from fresh to gourmands 😍😍😍.

COZY SUGAR ❤

The color, the packaging and everything suits perfectly with this scent. It's a very sugary scent (with a weak to no vanilla at least for me) to the point na parang lalanggamin ka na 😅😅. I'm not kidding. Ganon yung nafifeel ko. Buti hindi to ganon ka potent na kahit ilang spray ay light parin kundi jusko baka naumay na agad ako. It's a sugary scent but may halong fizzy note sa top note (nananunulasok sa ilong 😅😅😅). Parang "Sprite" ata siya na hindi ko maexplain. Then it transitions beautifully to this familiar candy that I can't remember. Napaka familiar ng candy na yon and ganon yung amoy niya. Among the three (Cozy Sugar, Pink Coconut & Fresh Vanilla) I like this one the most. Tama lang yung formulation niya na light. My only problem is the nozzle. I HATE IT! Sana baguhin na nila. Pero napansin ko sa new Vanilla Swirl na ang smooth and medyo fine na yung spray. Sana lahat ng bagong mists ni PINK ganon na. Overall I love the scent. It's perfect for cuddle weather.

LOVE, MAYA: LA LA LAVENDER ESSENTIAL OIL ❤

This is so warm, comforting, nostalgic and very relaxing 😍😍😍! I smell a light lavender with a hint of sweet citrus. It's not a bright, juicy citrus pero marerecognize mo yung light na sweet citrus. Hindi ko alam ang amoy ng real lavender pero mostly sa mga products na lavender scented ay may ganitong scent profile. Herbally, green scent. It's very relaxing plus I don't know if it is because of the oil pero may naaamoy akong parang "warmed oil" na scent. Yung mga oils na gamit kapag nagpapamassage ka tapos medyo warm kasi rinurub sa kamay, may ganong element siya. Hindi yung mantikang iniit sa pan ha hahahahah. Basta parang warmed oil + lavender. It's really light but potent enough para marelax ka. I really enjoyed this one. Blue Magic na store yung naaalala ko sa scent na to. I don't know if Blue Magic still exist pero ito yung go to shop namin before for gifts and souvenirs. Napaka comforting ng shop na yon and magical ang dating. May mga stuffed toys, mga handicrafts and meron rin silang mga perfumes. Doon ko na associate ang amoy nito. Now with the aid for sleeping I'm not sure but one thing is for sure, everytime I use this narerelax talaga ako. I guess the role of essential oils is to free our mind temporarily from stress thru the transportative and relaxing properties of the scent. And once our brain is relaxed, sleeping will come at ease any time 😊.

PUMPKIN CUPCAKE ❤

Let me start by saying that they should change the name of this one. I don't know how pumpkin smells like but I'm pretty sure that this is not a cupcake note. Ang naiimagine ko kasi a very soft and sweet, bakery vanilla scent. Yes there's a vanilla here but takes time to subside to a soft vanilla. This is a spicy vanilla scent. Ito dapat ang scent ni White Pumpkin Chai. The vanilla note is similar to Boardwalk Vanilla Cone (I smelled this on a pocketbac) which is a toasty, buttery vanilla. And medyo nakakasuka yung vanilla na yon 😅😅😅. Mabango at first but it's too toasty and too strong for my taste. Now with Pumpkin Cupcake, may added pa siyang spices I think ginger or anise? This is not a safe scent. It's a good vanilla, too good that makes you puke sometimes. Mabango siya don't get me wrong but need mo sanayin ilong mo dahil sa spice at tapang ng vanilla nito. And I think dahil sa spices to na kaya minsan nangangamoy root beer siya. Pero yung drydown? Heavenly. A soft, yummy caramel + vanilla. Bath and body works is bringing this back this Fall 2021. I suggest you try the decant before buying this, but as a vanilla lover, I need this in my collection 😊.

VANILLA SWIRL ❤

Finally I got my hands on this scent. Matagal tong napagusapan and maraming haka-hakang kaamoy daw to ni Vanilla Lace. But let me tell you this in my most honest opinion, mabango pero not something unique. Yes may kaamoy siya but definitely not Vanilla Lace. Ang kaamoy niya (at least for me) is Bare Vanilla. Ang pinagkaiba lang nila ay ang top note. Bare Vanilla has this strong almost sour top note while Vanilla Swirl has this sugary note. This sugary note ni Vanilla Swirl gives this scent a texture and makes it different to Bare Vanilla. Pero basically may Bare Vanilla na eh 😅😅😅. Magkaiba parin sila and hindi totally repackage but the difference is almost unnoticeable and kung manonotice mo naman is hindi ganon ka grand or ka significant. Now the question is which I prefer more. I guess kung saan ako mas makakamura 😅😅. Pero with performance and volume panalo si Bare Vanilla for me 😊

INTENSE ❤

This is one of the scents na ang daming pinaghalo-halo. The top note and the body of this scent is all over the place. Hindi smooth yung transition and for me hindi well blended. The notes are there but just floating, walang harmony. But the good thing is mabango ang drydown. The closest scent that I can compare with is the discontinued VS Seductive Amber + Vanilla Blooms. After the initial spray maaamoy mo yung parang cherry + cola na note na may halong spices na minsan amoy root beer and a strong note parang leather. Ganon siya kagulo for me 😅😅😅😅. It's a mature scent with a sweetened spice note. Pero infairness hindi siya nakakahilo. And after sometime maaamoy mo na ng paunti-unti ang vanilla but still nandon parin yung mga nagkakagulong notes na namention ko. 😅😅😅😅 Overall I enjoyed the scent and medyo makapit siya sa skin ko kasi kinaumagahan naamoy ko parin siya 😊.
