i’m a total sucker for a good sentiment and with this post i am going way back. back to my very first bottle of [real] perfume. a late bloomer, i didn’t discover the joys of beautiful perfume packaging until well after we had moved to canada; those things were for grown ups and i was still playing with lego. but when liv tyler sold me my first bottle of very irrésistible, i was hooked. from then on it was all about collecting the beautifully shaped bottles; no two were alike. i am still always tempted to pick up a new bottle of anything that has a beautiful design.
when i saw this new generation Givenchy Live Irrésistible Eau de Toilette, it immediately brought back those memories. the smell is, of course, to this day one of my favorites. with the top notes of pear granita and green apple and a beautiful base of powdery musks and light woods, this is the perfect fruity fragrance to your upcoming summer – whether you are spending it by a cabin on the lake, on the rooftops of florence, or just having patio parties with your girlfriends (foreshadowing, anyone?). the packaging got a little edgier but remains true to the fragrance’s elegance and femininity. that bit of happiness will make all the difference and it inspired this very spring-appropriate look. we got lucky and caught the remainders of this season’s cherry blossoms for the occasion, like it was meant to be. a pink and girly look head to toe with a little bit of edge. it reminds me of something 😉 xoxo

Very Irresistible was my first fragrance too and still one of my all-time faves. My mom even buys it and wears it when she’s missing me, because it reminds her of being around me. It’s amazing what a good perfume can do!
oh yes! the sense of smell is one of the most powerful. i will still not let my husband wear certain scents because they either give me a bad association with someone from my past or remind me of my dad lol, obviously don’t want the two of them smelling the same 😛
Beautiful photos and lovely bottle. I’m new to the whole scent game. So far I only have 3 scents that I wear. Chanel, Marc Jacobs, and SJP.

those are all really beautiful! over time i have learned that the quality of the perfume is definitely more important than the quantity. i try to not have anymore than 5 scents on rotation at a time just to keep it as simple as i can get away with 🙂
I love these photos! So beautiful and feminine :).
thanks girl, your notes always make me smile <3
