The Anti-Floral -- That's Angel Perfume!

Quite frankly, I rather like floral fragrances. There are quite a few in my personal fragrance collection. However, one of my favorite all-time scents happens to be one that contains not a trace of floral. It's Angel, by Thierry Mugler of Paris, and it's truly one of a kind!

*** Fashion Ideas *** Perfume, acne and skincare... In some case your doctor may suggest the acne pustules are drained of harmful contents under local anesthetic; never try to squeeze your zits however, as it can lead to permanent damage of your skin. Hormone treatment might be suggested as hormone changes can cause skin problems; hormonal changes are known to cause acne and such skin care treatments often effective. The end result is dealing with this skin complaint is not the problem it once was, there are now a huge range of products specifically formulated for the task.

I don't exactly know what drew me to this fragrance. It could be many things. The bottle itself is stunning -- pale blue glass shaped like a star. The gorgeous bottle aside, when I read the description of the fragrance, I knew I had to try some. I'm talking about ingredients like vanilla, sandalwood, fruit, patchouli, and chocolate. Yes, chocolate! I call this perfume the anti-floral because it's the only perfume that I have personally ever heard of that contains zero floral notes. So if you're seeking a unique fragrance gift for a girl who hates cloying floral scents, then Angel perfume is a perfect pick!

I'm a small-town girl. To try Angel perfume I either had to drive two hours to the nearest Sephora, or use the Internet to order some. I'm not big on driving -- so of course I chose the Internet! Now, Angel perfume isn't cheap. And since I'm on a budget, I really didn't want to put out that kind of money for a fragrance I'd never even tried. So I found a solution -- buying samples.

I dropped by Ebay and found some reasonably priced authentic Angel samples up for sale there. So I ordered two of them. When they arrived within a week, I tore open my package and extracted my samples, tiny little spray vials. After one spritz, I was hooked!

*** Fashion Ideas *** On beauty... Part of the problem with Western women is the need for immediate results, always expecting the cosmetic surgeon to save the day using invasive procedures that often end in failure. Beauty care products however, are formulated to work more naturally with the skin and are within almost everyone's budget with other health advantages as part of the package.

I think I put my arm to my nose all day long. I'm sure I got some strange looks in the grocery store that day! But I couldn't help being addicted to it -- this fragrance is so heavenly! All the elements contained within blend together perfectly to create a scent that is warm, foody, yet with a fruity spice. And you can definitely smell the chocolate. I adore Angel perfume, and will wear it for years to come.
