Grrrrrr, I am a fanatic and buy every single new scent that comes out. I was trying to discipline myself and not purchase anything until Fall. But now I am going through withdrawals, haha. I will snag it when my rewards come in. Great video, thanks for keeping it real - and you look stunning in green, gurl! :)

    Mary, I think you’ve found your niche in debunking false scent comparisons. You were the first one I saw who said that Everlasting Magic smelled like a variation on Sugared Cherry Crisp, and now everyone else is saying it too.
    I love Alien Essence Absolue, but think of it as a gourmandy version of Alien. I didn’t get that from Chasing Fireflies, but I did a quick sniff because I’m trying not to like another fragrance.
    Love your green eyes, and whole look here! Thanks for the review.

      @@marymakers I love Nag Champa, it’s an incense available at most new age/metaphysical stores. It’s made with fragipani and sandalwood or Gaiak wood, along with other florals and tree resins sometime. I found this description on a website selling it:
      What Does Nag Champa Smell Like?
      Nag Champa has a sweet and earthy aroma, which is described by many as calming and warm. Due to its balsamic odor, Nag Champa incense is burned during spiritual practices for its meditative benefits. For some, Nag Champa resembles the smell of jasmine, or the forest.
      Its smell lasts long even after the stick has burnt out. Its fragrance helps people to relax and it is believed to transport one’s mind and soul to a peaceful dimension during meditation.

I like that this lasts longer than some of the other sprays lately. Also, get a fresh note. Like in Crisp Morning Air.
