Current addiction: Chanel fragrances

At the Nordy's spring trend show, I learned that Chanel was coming out with a more day-friendly version of their famous No. 5- the Eau Premiere. After doing my usual research, I was thrilled to find that this scent comes in an enormous 5 oz bottle for a mere $125- a steal as far as Chanel is concerned. I held out on purchasing it until the Nordy's fragrance show, since I'd get a discount and someone was lovely enough to give me a Nordy's gift card.

I also had been lusting after the Coco Mademoiselle Touche Scintillante - a gel formula with a suble gold shimmer. It's been featured in all my magazines, so I was dying to try it. Little did I know that my beloved No. 5 was also worked into a gel fragrance - the Elixir Sensuelle. These formulas are a great way for someone to get their feet wet with Chanel. The fragrances are warmer and more subtle AND they're only $65/bottle. My husband has always liked all my Chanel fragrances, but he has requested that I never wear the No. 5 Elixir Sensuelle unless I am with him. (I am unable to keep the grin off my face as I type that.)

I have been remiss again...

.. But I have a good excuse. I did get married a few months ago and, while it didn't interfere with my product gathering, I have been slammed at my day job and at home.. So, I hope you'll bear with me while I get back in the habit of writing daily.
