All Good Scents EDP Love & Joy,Evoke,Lolette Review

Hey guys,

Today I am reviewing perfumes again, after the recent Estée Lauder Modern Muse, now its time for these babies.

About All Good Scents: Much like musical notes make up a song fragrance notes are necessary to make a perfume. Overall, there are three note scales that when blended together create the perfume’s fragrant accord. All Good Scents has based its LOGO on this pertinent allegory of the perfume world- The Perfume Pyramid.

APPLICATION:

Top Notes: (Within 5 minutes) The initial whiff, the first few seconds of the perfume. The top notes of a fragrance are generally the lightest of all the notes. They are recognized immediately upon application of the perfume. Common fragrance top notes include citrus (lemon, orange zest, bergamot), light fruits (grapefruit, berries) and herbs (clary sage, lavender).

Heart Notes: (6 to 8 hours) The heart notes, make an appearance once the top notes evaporate. A perfume’s heart is often a smooth combination of floral or fruit tones. Common fragrance heart notes include geranium, rose, lemongrass, ylang ylang, lavender, neroli and jasmine.

Base Notes: (8+ hours) The base notes are the final fragrance notes that appear once the top & heart notes have evaporated. These often, rich notes linger on the skin for hours after the heart notes have dissipated. Common fragrance base notes include cedar wood, sandalwood, vanilla, amber, patchouli, oak moss and musk.

They have a separate range for men and women. And within men and women, they have a premium EDP Range and the Essentials Range for daily wear.

Today I am reviewing the Premium Range EDP for Women which are Love & Joy, Evoke and Lolette.

About the Premium Range: Exquisitely distilled fragrances from rare blossoms and exotic ingredients. Celebrating the spirit of the Venus in you.

Evoke For the Femme Fatale: Envelop yourself with this sensual fragrance and spice up your evening. Leave a lingering, passionate scent whenever you move. It’s intoxicating yet subtle, powerful yet delicate.

Evoke- passions he never knew existed.

Top Notes: Blackcurrant, Green Notes, Bergamot
Heart Notes: Jasmine, Lily Of The Valley, White Flowers
Base Notes: Vanilla, Sandalwood, Tonka Beans

MRP: Rs.1200/- for 50ml

Evoke has this squarish golden packaging but with slight curves 😉 Blackcurrant is the strongest among the top notes here when I smell it. Later on its the Lily from the Heart Notes and the faint whiff of vanilla in the Base Note. The top notes are a little heavy for me but I loved the Heart and Base Notes, so this perfume is something I would love after some time of application.

Lolette for the Naughty Lady: Revel in a sensual and dainty aura as you celebrate with this floral bouquet. Enjoy the mischievous sparkle that will follow you, leaving many yearning for more.

Lolette- Tease your naughty, with a spray of our nice.

Top Notes: Coconut, Plum, Apricot
Heart Notes: Tuberose, Pimento, Jasmine Sambac
Base Notes: Vanilla, Rose, Jacaranda Wood

MRP: Rs.1200/- for 50ml

I loved the royal bluish purple packaging to start with, and the bottle stands tall, unlike those short, round ones. Lolette too has stronger top notes, followed by the same floral heart notes and musky base notes. This again I loved after some time of application.

Love & Joy For the Free Spirit: Indulge yourself in a quaint symphony of flowers. For your blossoming youth and free spirit, celebrate ‘YOU’ with this elegant fragrance. Mixed with soft freshness, eternal youth, and the divine feminine that is YOU.

Love & Joy- celebrate life, celebrate ‘YOU’.

Top Notes: Freesia, Peony, Litchi
Heart Notes: Rose, Lily Of The Valley, Magnolia
Base Notes: White Musk, Amber, Powdery Notes

MRP: Rs.750/- for 30ml, Rs.1500/- for 75ml

I loved the bright yellow packaging with a butterfly on this. Though the top note has Litchi, this time its more floral and not too fruity. The rose and lily combo in the heart notes are just perfect. And my favourite White Musk and Amber in the base notes. This is my favourite out of the three! Absolutely loved this one. Totally my kinds.

Also, one thing I would like to mention here is, these perfumes stayed 11+ hours on me, which hardly any perfume does! I was amazed by the staying power and loved it.

You can buy these HERE. They also have Free Shipping all over India and one can get a free mini spray using the promo code ‘MINISPRAY’ which would be perfect for travel. Also they have a concept called ScentBox where one can try upto 3 tester samples. You can choose the testers yourself.

Estée Lauder Modern Muse Eau De Parfum Review

Estée Lauder Modern Muse Eau De Parfum Review

Estée Lauder unveils Modern Muse, a new fragrance that is inspired by the intriguing duality of today’s woman and complements every aspect of her dynamic life. This fragrance captures the essence of a Modern Muse with a Lush Floral Woody scent, a true statement in modern luxury that conveys confidence, style and creativity with a modern, youthful attitude.

Be an inspiration. Experience the fragrance that captures your style, your confidence, your creative spirit. An alluring contrast of sparkling florals and sleek, sensual woods.
Two distinctively different accords—Sparkling Jasmine Accord and Sleek Woods Accord—provide an intriguing dual impression. It’s a true innovation in fragrance design, as complex and fascinating as the woman who inspires it.

THE INSPIRATION
Modern Muse was inspired by the complexity of a modern woman, with the same dynamic contrasts as her life and her personality. Her creative energy and magnetic femininity are captured by its multi-faceted, sparkling floralcy. Her sleek style, strength and sensuality by its sleek woods.

Who is a Modern Muse? She’s confident and independent, soft and strong, feminine yet dynamic. Stylish and original, she inspires everyone she meets—without saying a word.

FEELING: CONFIDENT, INDEPENDENT, INSPIRING

FRAGRANCE TYPE: LUSH FLORAL WOODY

NOTES:
EXOTIC MANDARIN
HONEYSUCKLE NECTAR
DEWY PETALS
JASMINE SAMBAC
CHINA ABSOLUTE
TUBEROSE FLEUR FIRNAT
FRESH LILY
PATCHOULI COEUR
PATCHOULI CRIST
AMBER WOOD
SOFT MUSK
MADAGASCAR VANILLA SFE

A New Concept in Fragrance

Composed of subtle contrasts and bold contradictions, Modern Muse reveals layers of strength and softness in an appealing creative tension. Its innovative “dual-impression” structure invites women to connect with the fragrance through two contrasting aspects:

Sparkling Jasmine Accord: This facet of the fragrance captures the creative energy and magnetic femininity of a modern woman. Exotic Mandarin and tempting Honeysuckle Nectar send a spark of energy through a youthful sensation of Dewy Petals. Two extractions of Jasmine Sambac, including one new to the perfumery palette, Jasmine Sambac China Absolute, bring luminous texture to the feminine bouquet of rich Tuberose Fleur and Fresh Lily.

Sleek Woods Accord: Her sleek style, strength and sensuality are expressed through this innovative blend of two Patchouli essences wrapped in the creaminess of Madagascar Vanilla, rich Amber Wood and soft Musk – all of which craft an undeniably sensual finish.

MRP: Rs. 7900/- for 100ml & Rs.5900/- for 50ml

To start with, I am in love with the packaging! How beautiful does that bow look!! There is no separate cap and you need to directly spray it. The complete soft pink and gold with a hint of black on the bow looks very classy.

Coming to the scent, I have always loved musky ones. Those warm vanilla, woody, musky kinds. Too floral or fruity is not my taste. When I first smelled this perfume, I was in complete awe of it.

Its the perfect blend of floral and woody. Not too woody and not too floral. It hits the right chord. If you are someone, who does not like too much floral, fruity scents but love the hint of it in between the woody, this is just perfect for you! Highly recommended.

Have you tried the new Estée Lauder Modern Muse Eau De Parfum ?

The Body Shop White Musk Smoky Rose EDT Review

The Body Shop White Musk Smoky Rose EDT Review

What the Company claims: A daring and mysterious fragrance in a light eau de toilette, featuring an intoxicating blend of cruelty-free musk with sinuous notes of black smoky rose and tobacco flower.

Seductive floral-musk scent
Contains cruelty-free musk
Light eau de toilette

MRP: Rs.1395/- for 30ml & Rs.1695/- for 60ml

I have been using this from almost 3-4 months now. The White Musk Smoky Rose comes in both EDT and EDP form like other scents from The Body Shop. EDT is milder and lighter whereas EDP is a little more heavier in terms of scent/fragrance (more concentrated)

Top notes are bergamot, pink pepper and black currant; middle notes are tobacco blossom, black rose, orange blossom and immortelle; base notes are olibanum and white musk.

I quite like the cute pink packaging too. Its very small and handy to carry along anywhere.

I love white musk smell but it can be a little heavy at times. When blended with this floral and fruity notes, it balanced the white musk smell. ‘Smoky’ is what the tobacco flower in this gives a hint of.

Its neither too sweet nor too floral or fruity. Like everything is in perfect proportion. You have a hint of fruity, floral, manly white musk, smoky tobacco but all subtly balanced.

I quiet love this ! Its something unique and nice. Only issue is it does not stay long on me, max 3-4 hours. So lacks on the longevity and sillage department. I wish it stayed longer. Perhaps I would try the EDP next time.

Highly recommend this. If you are someone who does not like too floral or fruity fragrance and you like white musk, this is the perfect balance.
