Norell Blushing

Norell Blushing is built around the rose.

Each bottle is said to possess over 500 luxuriant petals of the coveted Damask Rose. Remarkably with that much rose in it it's not a straightforward or all rose  fragrance. 

Norell Blushing has a  floral opening , with touches of juicy fruit including nectarine and pear.  It's very rose, but a young ,bright rose , not powdery along with orange blossom and then it gets a bit musky and woodsy with the sandalwood note prominent. In the full drydown, it becomes soft, staying closer to the skin with the rose , vanilla and sandalwood mixing.

It smells like pink , echoing the juice color if that makes sense and is ladylike , easy to wear and casually elegant.

I do also love that rhinestone trimmed bottle, it's very glam and made for display.

$ 150 for 3.4 oz exclusively at Neiman Marcus with a gift set now also available.

Chanel La Creme Main Hand Cream

This may be the chicest hand cream ever.

Chanel La Creme Main ups your hand lotion game exponentially. The egg shaped  container  fits perfectly in  your hand.  Take the top off and  squeeze to get the very lightly fragranced cream out.

The cream itself is light  with a  velvety feel and moisturizes well along with having ingredients for brightening like iris pallida and licorice root extracts. May rose wax,  shea butter and glycerin provide the hydration.  It sinks in quickly but leaves skin feeling softened and moisturized fast. You can tell the difference right away .

Would it be wrong to have this sitting out right next to me at my desk all day ?

Chanel La Creme Main is available now for $ 50 and is 1.7 oz
