Should You Diva Into the New Christina Aguilera Eau de Parfums? - Makeup and Beauty Blog

On the way home from da club last Sabbatum night, my friend turned to me in the car and said, "I have to tell you something, but you have to hope non to judge."

Um, that's usually what people say right before they admit to breaking and inbound, or lewd and lascivious carry, and so I steeled myself before replying. "I'll attempt to keep an open mind."

"I watched Caricatural last dark…" She let it hang out there for an uncomfortably long moment earlier adding, "and it was really good!"

I couldn't believe my ears. "Seriously?"

"Yeah," she explained, "well, that trivial man next to the review in the [San Francisco] Chronicle flick section was clapping out of his seat."

(I knew the guy she was talking about.)

"Then I figured I'd give it a adventure."

Information technology sounded reasonable, but I'd seen the trailer a few times. "Seriously?"

"Yes!" she charged, "and no judgment, remember?! It wasn't as bad as anybody's been making information technology out to be."

Hmm… This morning, inspired by my buddy'south willingness to give Xtina the benefit of the doubt, I tried to keep an open mind when I tried the diva'due south ii new fragrances, Christina Aguilera Eau de Parfum and Christina Aguilera By Night Eau de Parfum ($39 each), even though I wasn't crazy about her final smell, Inspire.

Even before the first sniff, they were getting mad points for the lovely lace design on the bottles.

Officially, the 1 called Christina Aguilera is described as a fruity floral with notes of fruit sorbet, blackcurrent tea, peony, jasmine, musk and vanilla. The 1 called By Night is described as an oriental fruity blend of tangerine, red apple, freesia, vanilla, amber and peach.

For starters, I like the soft aroma of tea, musk and jasmine that emanates from the bottle of Christina Aguilera, but there's something about the scent that doesn't mesh with my body chemistry. It'due south sharp, a little like sour lemon drops, and when I breath it in, makes me desire to purse my lips.

The By Night version, despite being described equally an oriental with fruity notes, also takes the candy theme and runs with it. It reminds me of scarlet licorice…incidentally, my least favorite sweet treat.

I'm still a fan of Christina'southward (the Dirrrty years concord a special place in my heart), but and so far I haven't been a fan of her scents. My interest in them ends at the bottles, from afar.
