Selecting scent is individual and should be fun.\u00a0 It is not a necessity so should not be treated as such.\u00a0 The idea here is:\u00a0 Indulge and enjoy.<\/p>\n

I recently had the pleasure of trying A Perfume Organic <\/a>perfumes.\u00a0 Emma first reported on these little beauties here<\/a>, and I just had to back her up and throw in my two (s)cents on the individual fragrances.<\/p>\n

Sampling A Perfume Organic perfumes was definitely a pleasure.\u00a0 Organic perfumer, Amanda Walker, has created a line of USDA Certified Organic perfumes that are healthy alternatives to synthetic perfumes.\u00a0 Conventional perfumes contain phthalates, petro-chemicals, and acetone which have been linked to such health issues as migraines, asthma, birth defects, and cancer.<\/p>\n

Amanda has studied with Master Perfumers and distillers who still believe in the practice of creating perfumes from flowers, fruits, herbs, and spices.\u00a0 A Perfume Organic perfumes contain only the best quality plant ingredients, are vegan certified, and hand-poured in small batches for purity and freshness.\u00a0 Each is packaged in a seed-infused container so you can plant the package, rather than discard.<\/p>\n

Green <\/a>is the line\u2019s signature scent \u2013 a fresh combination of \u201ccitrus fruits, rare spices and precious herbs from the West Coast, inspired by an amazing, and unforgettable hike in Silver Falls, Oregon.\u201d<\/em>\u00a0 A light, clean scent that appeals to most.\u00a0 If you prefer a sweeter scent Urban Organic<\/a>\u00a0is likely for you, with notes of lemon, lime, ginger, and vetiver.\u00a0 White Magik <\/a>includes essence of jasmine, sage, and spearmint.\u00a0 A complex, woodsy aroma that is at once dusky and light.\u00a0<\/p>\n

My favorite of the bunch is Wine \u2013 Ros\u00e9<\/a>, an intoxicating blend of rich spices and fruits.\u00a0 I always go for the warm, foody, \u201cbrown\u201d perfumes and this delicious concoction is all that.\u00a0 It conjures the holidays, something yummy simmering on the stove, a cinnamon-nutmegy spice scent.\u00a0 This is almost exactly the essential oil blend I created over the years using different essential oils.\u00a0 Only Amanda\u2019s perfumes have a luxurious quality that combines the individual scents to create one beautifully unified bouquet.\u00a0 Like all of your favorite oils perfectly married into one fabulously distinctive scent.<\/p>\n

Part of the reason spicy scents appeal to me is because of their warmness, and if you are scent-sensitive, this is very important.\u00a0 The cool thing about Amanda\u2019s perfumes is the soft finish.\u00a0 Once on the skin they seem to instantly penetrate and meld with your natural warmness.\u00a0 This creates a soft, almost powdery, aroma.\u00a0 Very delicate, not at all over-whelming.<\/p>\n

Can\u2019t decide which perfume to try?\u00a0 The Sample Set <\/a>includes a vial of each of the four A Perfume Organic scents, and at only $15.\u00a0 The perfect way to try them all and discover your new signature scent.<\/p>\n
