First impressions- DKNY Golden Delicious

Hello everyone, I have for you another perfume first impression, this one is going to be for DKNY's Golden Delicious. Now this is a different kind of scent, as you could probably could tell by the name and the bottle, this is a fresh fruity smell, but it's very subtle. It's a nice change from all the fruity scents that give you the impression you just opened a bottle juice at the grocery store.
Notes:.Orange Flower Water, Mirabelle, Golden Delicious Apple, White Rose, Casablanca Lily, Vanilla Orchid, Muguet, Musk, Sandalwood, and Teakwood
Style:Sophisticated. Glamorous. Radiant.

First impression- pure DKNY vanilla

Hello! I hope everyone is having a good week, I have for you another perfume first impression, this one is for another DKNY fragrance, this is a little tricky because I could have sworn the packaging said pureDKNY Vanilla, but when I look for more information on this product, it comes up as just "pureDKNY" So, I'm going to just call it as it was called on the sample packaging. I will be honest, in my mind I already wanted to hate this perfume just because it said vanilla. It's very hard for me to find a vanilla scent that doesn't overpower all the note in fragrances. So, when I first took a whiff of this, I was extremely surprised and shocked. It's a very subtle flowery vanilla scent the style for this fragrance :Simple. Calm. Authentic, which I could agree with, it's very laid back, not in your face.
The notes for this are:Vanilla, Dew-Drop Petal, Lotus Flower, Bulgarian Rose, Jasmine, Freesia, Lush Orchid, White Amber, Creamy Sandalwood.

I could see myself wearing this perfume, the scents seems like something I would enjoy wearing and the bottle could look good on any table or bathroom counter. You can find this perfume at Sephora and Sephora.com and a 1.0 oz bottle of this will run you 45$. I hope this was helpful, if you have any questions, please leave them in a comment below and I will answer them as quickly possible.

First impression- pureDKNY verbena

Hello ladies and Gents :)
I have another perfume first impression for you! This one is for pureDKNY Verbena by DKNY. This is the first time I have tried any of DKNY's perfumes, so I didn't high expectations but I also didn't expect this to smell like it did. First thing that came to mind when I took whiff: leaves and flowers. The description of style for this fragrance was: Fresh. Bright. Sophisticated. I don't know about the sophisticated part, but it does smell fresh and bright. Makes me think of wide open meadows on spring day.
The notes for this are: Verbena(Of course), Honeysuckle, Peony, Jasmine Petals, White Amber, Sea Moss and Veiter

 As you can tell by the bottle, it's not too flashy but not too dull either. It's classy and elegant and would go nice on anyone bathroom counter or vanity table. A nice 1.0 oz bottle of this will run you 45$ dollars at sephora and sephora.com. You could also find this any place that sells fragrances, if there any questions that I didn't answer here, leave it a comment below and I will answer it to the best of my ability.

First Impression- Sensuous Nude by Estee Lauder

I received this sample of Sensuous Nude with my Ulta order, but for some when I think of Estee Lauder, I think of it as an "old lady" brand of make up, but their products don't look like that. I swatched their cream eyeshadows when I was at Macy's sometime ago and fell in love their products. Maybe it has something to do with the fact that both my grandmother and mother use their products, would be something that would steer me away from this brand(Please excuse my closed-mindedness, I'm really working on it ):). But after swatching some if their products before trying this perfume, gave me an open mind. So with that, I decided to give it a chance, when I first tried this perfume, these were the first things that came to mind: flowery and incense. It felt like I was smelling a incense stick with no smoky smell, I also sensed a subtle musky scent and also a baby powder after smell.

For those who look for favorite notes, the notes are: Woods, Musky, Muguet, Sicilian Bergamot and Baie Rose

To me this something that I would enjoy wearing everyday, it's not to over powering that it would give me a headache(which I get easily from people who walk by me with either too much perfume or Cologne on) But it's not to subtle that I wouldn't tell that it's on. The bottle is simple, very elegant, it would go very well with almost every style that you could have on you vanity. A 1 oz bottle of this would cost you 52$ at Ulta and they are always having sales, so you could get a great deal for it. I hope this was helpful!

IMATS Plan & Prep- January

Hello gals & guys! Like I said a few months earlier, I'm going to IMATS in Pasadena(which is funny because it's called IMATS LA, my husband asked where it was going to held and I told him at the Pasadena Convention center. To which he told me "so it's going to be in Pasadena, not LA" to which I asked him "Is Pasadena in LA? to which he said "Yes, but it's called Pasadena, not LA" Yeah, my husband gets technical with that sort of thing, I retaliate by tickling him :P) Anyways, I said was going to blog my journey to IMATS, which I've made thre first step already and didn't blog about it (bad keyry!) The first step I have taken is to search and reserve a hotel room, I have already found a hotel, that is fairly close to the hotel for a good price. Booking a room early is key to getting a good deal and booking with sites like priceline.com(which is what I used (: ) are also a big help! It's also a good to book in advance to make sure you get it squared away, so you don't scramble later and pay more than needed or worse don't find any rooms :O Another thing to keep in mind is how many people will be going with you, so when you're reading room details you can see if comes with an extra bed or couch that can pull out into a cot. Another thing to look into while booking a room, to think how long will you be in the room for, if you are going to spend a significant amount of time in the room, maybe you could splurge for a 3-star room for a better ambience. But if your just using room to sleep, then might just need 1 or 2-star room, in my opinion. Now if you are traveling alone, you might have to look for a hotel in a nice neighborhood, unless you're thrill seeker. Even you are traveling with other girls, I would still find a hotel in a nice area, just to be safe. I'm going with my husband and his friend, so I feel a bit secure :) I hope this was helpful in some way, I'll keep checking to see when hotel rooms start decreasing availability, if any of you are planning to go IMATS LA, let me know what you're excited about! :)
Best wishes,
Keyry <3

First Impressions- Flowerbomb by Victor & Rolf

So this apparently is the first fragrance by Victor & Rolf, who are very big in artistic fashion, as you can tell from looking at this bottle. It's very unique, I've never seen one like this before(It looks like a grenaide, it's so cool!). When I first tried this perfume, these are the first things that popped into my head: marshmallows and cotton candy. Very sweet, kind of intoxicating sweetness, but I also noticed a bit of a flowery scent.

Here are the the notes for this perfume, for those of you who like to look for certain notes.: Sambac Jasmine, Centifolia Rose, Cattleya Orchid, Ballerina Freesia, Patchouli

Just by looking at this bottle, I would go bonkers, it's so pretty and shiny. But because I can't really take really sweet scents( or be near that smells like cotton candy, I not a fan of it) I couldn't really justify spending 50$ for a .68 oz bottle of something I would never wear, even if the bottle looks so cool! But if you are intersted in something like this or want to check it out for yourself, I will put a link below, hope this was helpful!
