We all know that scent really does make a statement. Some perfumes simply have a much more sophisticated quality than others, from the packaging to the scent itself as the aroma mingles with your own body chemistry. Bond No. 9 is truly one of my favorite scent companies, as they continually come up with unique combinations of notes, making for unforgettable perfumes, candles, and body creams.
The new Andy Warhol Silver Factory is my current favorite of the Bond No. 9 scents. It combines incense, wood resin, cedarwood and amber with jasmine, iris, and violet to create a concoction that must be smelled to be believed! Didn't I tell you the combinations of notes were unique?? I am so excited to be getting this for Christmas. I am one lucky diva!!
As a special holiday treat, Bond No. 9 is offering its West Side scent in candle form ~ a fabulous and classy gift for the special people on your gift list! West Side boasts rose, ylang ylang, peony, sandalwood, amber, vanilla and wildly sexy musk! The heady fragrance lingers long after you extinguish this exquisite candle. Give this to someone you want to impress.
I know I am one of many divas' who'd love to get a beauty related gift for the holiday! While facial skin care items might be a bit risky, nail polish and lipstick are always a welcomed gift in a stocking, under a tree or at that girl's night out holiday celebration. OPI has long been a fave nail polish brand ~ I used it all the time when I did nails professionally. Lipstick Queen is a fabulous new brand on the scene, and if you have not already graced your lips with Poppy's creations, what in the world are you waiting for?!?
OPI Tiny Tinsel Towners - Four very wearable colors from OPI, including the highly Diva appropriate: "I'd Like to Thank," "My Big Break," "Hollywood Blonde" and "Have You Seen My Limo?" Don't you love these names? I love small bottles of nail polish, as they stay fresher longer and I would be hard pressed to name the last time I ever completely used up a bottle of nail polish.
Lipstick Queen ~ The Poppy Mini Purse - This beautiful limited edition Poppy Mini Purse was designed by Poppy King in collaboration with Katherine Kin. These purses have been hand-printed and there are only 100 available. Um, can you say collectors item? Inside you will find a "Saint Red," the perfect daytime sheer red lipstick during the season and a "Red Sinner," the most decadent, ultra-glam opaque red lipstick to party like a celebrity, now and any other time, too!
Give the gift of beauty this holiday and be a hit with friends and family for many months to come. Wishing everyone the happiest of holidays!
