Ferragamo Emozione Dolce Fiore EDT

Ferragamo's Emozione is a favorite of mine.  It smells lovely,is easy to wear and is one of the fragrances that works just about anytime, any occasion .

The brand is adding to line with the new Emozione Dolce Fiore. It's an  EDT that is  petal soft and very feminine.

The fragrance opens with florals and a touch of citrus. Immediately I get the rose and peony notes right alongside the grapefruit and bergamot. The rose is more prominent than peony but this is by no means a rose scent.  As it dries down light musks come in ( white musk is one of the notes) along with a barely there iris and a grounding note of suede . Neither of these three notes are strong, the perfume remains a bright citrus floral right into the drydown with a powdery feel at times too.

It differs from the first Emozione in that it's less woody, less iris, leaning more fresh, powdery and sweeter than it's predecessor.

Emozione Dolce Fiore is a perfect Springtime scent. It wears easily and will work for daytime office wear as well as breezy weekends and casual evenings out.

Ferragamo Emozione Dolce Fiore EDTis $79 for 1.7 oz, $$ 99 for 3.1 oz

Cover Girl Oh Sugar Lip Balms

Can you use another tinted lip balm? I know I always can. I love them and stock them up all season, all year really.

Cover Girl debuted their Oh Sugar balms earlier this year and they are great for some Spring color.

These balms have good pigment and are darker than the outer tube color would have you think. The moisture is light but decent. I don't know that they would hold up against wind chills but for chilly ( or not) days they make the cut. 

The color lasts awhile fully then you are left with a bit of a stain especially with the deeper shades. I did find they settled into lip lines a bit more than I expected but a little smoothing helps that.

These do have a somewhat strong scent. It's fruity but a little plastic too. I'm fine with it , but if you are fragrance averse you may not love it.

Overall these are a fun addition to the lip wardrobe .
