Curious by Britney Spears Review

This perfume became a hit since its release in 2004. Aside of it being by Britney Spears' , I have to say that as a celebrity this perfume, this fragrance doesn't disappoint.


According to Fragantica:
'The composition is based on the notes of white flowers surrounded with vanilla and musk nuances. It opens with fresh lotus, mouthwatering pear and magnolia. The intensive floral heart is composed of tuberose, jasmine and pink cyclamen. The sensual base is composed of musk, vanilla and precious woods'

Curious is a girly, fruity-sweet, fun, fresh, clean, happy and a young smelling scent. It has a fruity-floral sweetness (no citrus) to it which is quite nice and throughout wearing it, it's not cloying. To my nose, the noticeable notes are jasmine and pear. And as it tones down the vanilla, musk and woody notes starts to settle in. As far as I can say, it's got this 'typical celebrity scent' (I don't know but I guess celebs are into sweet scents), but hey! it's pretty and it's nice. As long as you put the right amount of the juice of course. Curious is a well balanced fragrance, it doesn't get too sweet or too musky, even overtime it stays just right.

If you're looking for a clean slightly sweet fragrance but don't want to smell like a walking lollipop, this might be something for you. Remember, to love (or hate) a perfume is to do it with time. When you test a perfume, I recommend to let the fragrance sit on your skin for at least an hour, so that you'll know how the scent develops with your body chemistry and how it evaporates over time (to know whether the perfume is long lasting)

Happy sniffing!

Living with Braces and Retainers (Wire/Hawley vs Clear/Essix)

How much of you has gotten braces and retainers? Yep some of us have been through it all. May it be for health reasons or for the sake to get that perfect smile. Whether you're still wearing it, going through the retainer phase, let's agree that those years are just about discipline! The discipline of actually cleaning your teeth in a way you kind of never did before (not saying that you never clean your teeth before, omg that would just sound bad, why am I even writing this? lol never mind, ignore the voice in my head babbling. So, I meant cleaning in a good way, seriously!), you get used of more that just one tool to clean your teeth, that mental preparation of facing the facts that some of your teeth must be taken out, monthly visits to the dentist (my dentist is a living witness of me growing up), wearing retainers everyday, cleaning them, put it in the case and try not to lose it honestly. So well, I am going to share you bits of my story. I had had braces for 6 years...

DKNY Be Delicious Review

Image
Happy New Year everyone! Today, let's talk about the iconic DKNY Be Delicious for women. With the top notes of grapefruit, cucumber and magnolia, middle notes of tuberose, rose, liliy-of-the valley, violet, green apple and base notes consisting of amber, woody notes and sandalwood, this green apple shaped bottle is inspired by New York City, so it's why the main note is apple, as in 'the big apple'. DKNY Be Delicious is confident and vibrating. It's like saying 'Apple!' out loud in the middle of NYC. It it really does smell 'apple'. First sprayed on you'll get this loud flowery, citrus and ripe green apple. Later on it tones down to green apple-cucumber and flowers. And after it's apple-cucumber-woody notes. I would say too much sprays of this would be a little overwhelming, so you definitely don't want to bathe in this perfume. With the right amount, it's nice, it fruity, it's happy, sweet apple-y and confident. There is ...
