> Nokomis By Coty
Posted by Laemco - 05-14-08 01:48 - 0 comments
I've never read a bad review about Nokomis, seems it is well liked and very inexpensive. Having never smelled this stuff myself what are the thoughts on those who have?

> Aveda Personal Blends
Posted by High Tech Radiance - 05-13-08 21:35 - 2 comments
I think it's a while since I've posted, but I've been around :)

More and more I'm moving towards more natural scents. I've been exploring Aveda scents again lately after finding a new Aveda hair salon near me. For mother's day, I treated myself to a collection of all 12 Personal Blends in the Pure-fume Absolute. I can't believe I've never tried these before - I'm finding them to be quite fun, and I'm creating my wish list of what to try in the other personal blends product line.

Anyway, with the information that the SA put on my little envelopes for the oils, and some internet sleuthing .. here's some of the notes that are in the personal blends, and some recipes to duplicate the diffuser oils/candles scents.

#1: Key Element Earth -- Notes: Peppermint, Lemon, Orange
#2: Key Element Water -- Notes: Rose, Geranium, Eucalyptus
#3: Key Element Fire -- Notes: Ylang Ylang, Jasmine, Rose
#4: Key Element Air -- Notes: Clove, Rose, Jasmine
#5: Key Element Infinity -- Notes: Petitgrain, Orange, Lemon
#6: Key Element Water/Air -- Notes: Ylang Ylang, Bergomot, Orange
#7: Key Element Air/Water -- Notes: Lime, Orange, Lemon
#9: Key Element Water/Air/Fire -- Notes: Patchouli, Sandalwood, Jasmine
#12: Key Element Earth -- Notes: Peppermint, Eucalyptus
#15: Key Element Water -- Notes: Clove, Anise, Fennel
#20: Key Element Fire -- Notes: Sandalwood, Ylang Ylang, Violet Leaves
#25: Key Element Infinity -- Notes: Lime, Lavender

#5 is like the scent used in the Brilliant line

#6 is like the scent used in Shampure

#7 -- I think this smells a lot like the old Chakra III scent Equipose

Diffuser Oils/Candle Scents:

Euphoric = Key Element #4
Lavandou = Key Elements #3 + #15
Madagascar = Key Elements #5 + #25
Rainforest = Key Elements #9 + #15
Valencia = Key Elements #1 + #7

I think it was Juvy that posted her favorite combo was #6 & #2. If there are any other favorite combinations, I'd love to hear about them.

Currently the only one I don't like so much is the #25 which is kinda weird to me as I LOVE lavender and use it the essential oil in my bath everyday and also use Avalon Organics lavender products.

I know you'll understand--I bring this topic to other perfume lovers...about reformulations...of two favorites...
Aromatics Elixir & Knowing. I have tried these fragrances as recently as 2006, and I retried them today while shopping. I have been reading the threads others have written, and I had to see for myself how much these have changed...and have they changed!!! They are hardly recognizable to me. When I am testing the sillage from them left on my clothes, it is so sad that they have changed so much! Not only are they shadows of their former selves, but the notes/drydowns have changed significantly. I am really having the blues about this!
