LOVE {these yummy fragrances}

I don't know about you, but I've always had a tough time finding yummy, summery fragrances. This is probably because my sniffer gravitates towards richer scents, which tend to be more appropriate for the cooler, wintery months. Luckily, I've found several perfumes that smell delicious and perfectly compliment a warm, summer day. Yay!

{LAVANILA Vanilla Grapefruit} This stuff is delicious!! The grapefruit notes are pretty subtle, making it the perfect sweet, summery scent. LAVANILA Vanilla Grapefruit is my go-to perfume for those days when I'm running out the door and need to smell yummy all day long. Not only do LAVANILA's frangrances smell fantastical, but they are good for you, too. LAVANILA formulates their products without parabens, sulfates, synthetics frangrances, synthetic dyes, petro-chemicals, phthalates, GMO, + triclosan. Woohoo!

Ooh, and the 100% pure shea butter Vanilla Grapefruit Body Butter {$25,} is insanely wonderful as well. If you love thick, creamy {but not greasy} body cream that smells almost edible, grab a tube and enjoy!


{Lolita Lempicka} Evan + I discovered this frangrance whilst honeymooning in Paris. Aww, how romantic, right? There are several different scents in the Lolita line, but my personal favorite comes in a gorgeous purple and gold bottle. If you haven't smelled this perfume, run to Sephora and give it a spritz or seven. With notes of ivy leaves, aniseed, amarena heart, violets, iris roots, vetiver, tonka bean, vanilla, and musk, it's like heaven in a bottle. It's a little richer than LAVANILA's Vanilla Grapefruit, but definitely still summer-worthy. If you're looking to get stopped in grocery stores because you smell delectible, grab yourself some Lolita Lempicka. Mmm!

{several size options, starting at 1oz for $44}

{Naked Honey by M.A.C} Talk about bringing on a childhood flashback! Naked Honey by M.A.C Cosmetics smells exactly like the cluster of honeysuckle bushes that overtook the front of my childhood home. Evan claims honeysuckle as his favorite scent, so I grabbed this perfume up in a jiffy! It's sweet and fresh and mmm, mmm, good.

{0.68 US FL OZ, $25 at M.A.C stores or Nordies}

TIP: I was slightly disappointed with the Naked Honey Hand + Body Cream, mostly because it doesn't smell like... anything. Just FYI! :o)
