U by Ungaro by Avon


Avon's newest women's fragrance is called U by designer Ungaro. I purchased a bottle of this new introduction and find it to be a fresh, light, romantic fragrance. Avon's advertisement for U pictures Reese Witherspoon wearing a flowing gown and overlooking the city lights of Paris. The caption reads, "U by Ungaro, What happens next is up to U. This new women's fragrance is by no means overpowering. It's very light and subtle and most of us can be comfortable wearing it. It comes in a very attractive rose colored bottle.

Avon's newest men's fragrance is also called U by Ungaro. It has a sensual yet sophisticated scent and comes in a light grey bottle. Each of these new Avon fragrances offer a free gift with purchase. I'm sure everyone can use this attractive new key fob.

Both the men's and the women's versions of U by Ungaro are signature scents from the House of Ungaro, according to the chief designer, Esteban Cortazar. These designer fragrances are available only at Avon so be sure to contact your Avon Representative. Read More......

Benefit's B Spot Perfume

Benefit has introduced a new perfume called B Spot. This is their second perfume, the first being Maybe Baby (a name that I love by the way), and for now you can find it on their website until it hits stores later this summer. Their packaging it pretty clever, it features a body map to help you find your "B spot". The notes sound interesting as well, Benefit's B Spot features notes of mango, freesia, peony, sandlewood and amber.

What do you think? Does this sound like something you'd try? I'm certainly going to try it when it hits stores. Read More......

Review: The One by Dolce and Gabbana

I've never been a huge fan of designer fragrances. Every time, I attempt to wear them, by the end of it I end up smelling like my mother. I often find them to be too harsh and overpowering. But Dolce and Gabbana's newest fragrance "The One" is altogether different. With top notes of citrus and peach, it's soft and sweet. Paerfect for a warm spring day. Read More......
