Honeysuckle fragrances to honor my favorite flower of my childhood
I remember the honeysuckle bushes that used to grow around the field of my elementary school. During play times, we would stop and pull the stamens from the slower to enjoy that tiny drop of sweetness. Later, I would relish the flowers in my neighborhood as well. Perhaps us kids got carried away with our…

Quick thoughts on the new Tom Ford Electric Cherry and Cherry Smoke

It appears that adidas has taken Thom Browne to court for the use of a signature four bar. Adidas says that the usage has caused confusion for customers; it is a little too close to the Adidas signature three stripe. I am not a lawyer, so I am curious how the arguments get tailored by…

I tried the Glow Recipe Dew Drops for a month. These are my thoughts
This is what I knew about Glow Recipe before I decided to give their products a serious try: Cute fun packaging and everything has a fruit of some sort. If you are playing along, you should probably guess that means not very much. So having done little to no research ahead of time, I was…
