Well, it finally feels like summer has really begun. With bathing suits, bare feet and less clothing a typical part of our daily lives, even the mind set changes. We crave cool fruity drinks, a quiet moment in the sun (or shade, whichever you prefer) and a sultry, musky scent. Ok, as for that last one, it may not be exactly what comes to mind when you conjure up a summer’s day. But Lavanila Pure Vanilla Healthy Fragrance ($56) is the perfect match for warm skin and relaxed living.
A blend of Madagascar vanilla, freesia petal, patchouli and heliotrope, the frangrance is made of pure essential oils. This delicious, slightly-spicy scent mellows when it soaks into the skin. Leaves you with a lovely, warm, natural fragrance that lasts all day.
Why should you trust my opinion on this? I am not one to take scents lightly. Let’s just say that I hold my breath when walking through the perfume section of a department store (no kidding!) and can get a headache that lasts all day just by coming into contact with the “wrong” scent. But we scent-sensitive gals like to smell good too.
Lavanila products are made from 100% natural ingredients and good-for-you stuff like goji powder, kakadu plum extract and olive leaf extract. And vanilla itself is said to reduce stress and anxiety. The perfect scent for summer.
