Penhaligon's Purchase

I got some Penhaligon's fragrance items over Christmas sale season. They are just beautiful and although it took a while for shipment to arrive (because they are coming from UK,) it was a pleasure to wait in excitement for these beauties!
Castile Eau de Toilette

I caught it on sale over Christmas season and I cannot stop wearing it! It lingers in such a beautiful manner that is so soft yet very nice and warming. Below are the notes from the website
HEAD NOTES
Neroli and Petitgrain

HEART NOTES
Bergamot, Orange Blossom and Rose

BASE NOTES
Precious Woods and Musk

Created in 1998, Castile is a classic citrus shot through with the intoxicating thrill of neroli. Fresh and bursting with the dusky sensuality of warm Mediterranean nights, the neroli marries perfectly with the aromatic tang of bergamot and delicate rose. The citrus notes flood the senses, uplifting and soothing. Woods and musk round off Castile, smoothing everything into a warm lick of marmalade and sunshine, perfect for summer , piquant enough to warm you through in the winter months.
ARTEMESIA CANDLE: I have way too many candles, so I haven't burnt this yet. Will let you know how i like this!
HEAD NOTES
Nectarine and Green Foliage
HEART NOTES
Green Apple, Lily of the Valley, Jasmine Tea, Violet and Vanilla
BASE NOTES
Oakmoss, Sandalwood, Musk, Amber and Vanilla
Created in 2002, Artemisia is both floral and fruity with a beautifully sensual powdery dry down. Caramel soft, sweet, powdery and silky. A tumble of green apples and nectarines washed with jasmine tea and sprinkled with a luxurious medley of violet, cyclamen and lily petals. All this softly unfolds with great subtlety surrounded with layers of honeyed vanilla, warm spices, a touch of amber and a hint of musk. Haunting and addictive.

Love, Cathy

Shoes and Candle of the Day!

These are my current favorite Flats from Sign by Giuseppe Zanotti. I got it for an Outlet price, so it was not too bad. Please ignore my unsightly pedicure, which is my favorite red: Big Apple Red from OPI!
This is my favorite candle in the winter but it is still burning nice and bright. It is Annick Goutal's Noel! Took the picture ages ago, so the candle is still very high up in the brim, but in reality it is almost gone. It is the most green candle I have every owned, smells just like fresh cut Pine Tree, which I don't know what it would actually smell like, but let's just say I do.
