Fragrance Friday: Scandal in London

Happy Friday!

Today I bring you Sarawen's 'Scandal in London' perfume from her Victorian Collection.

I have been so anxious to smell this ever since I placed my order for it. Even her sample vials are so cute. You can get a sample or full size of this scent here.



Since this perfume was inspired by Sherlock's Irene Adler, I decided to post this lovely picture of RDJ. You're welcome.

Sarawen describes 'Scandal in London' as: Feminine lilac and ylang ylang flowers blends with feisty dragonsblood with a light hint of eastern sandalwood. A touch of Holmes' favourite tobacco tops off this sultry floriental perfume.


On my skin, 'Scandal in London' is lilac right away. It is almost all floral top notes, which is really pretty and feminine. Once it sets, the sandalwood is the dominant note for me, with just a hint of the ylang ylang.

It smells like a balmy day, sitting outside of a cigar room, browsing a vintage boutique. It is unmistakably girly, but I don't get any of the danger.

The tabacco is really nice, very fresh and deep. It ends wonderfully and stays the whole day.

I love the idea of this perfume. Don't you?

Fragrance Friday: Tea With Watson

Happy Fragrance Friday!

I am so excited to bring you Sarawen's 'Tea with Watson' which is obviously Sherlock Holmes inspired.

I love Watson, and I loved the idea of a fragrance that would make me feel like I was having tea with him. Want to pick this baby up? Click here!

Could this picture get any more perfect? I think not. Remember that Sarawen is awesome, her perfumes are cruelty-free and vegan!

Sarawen describes 'Tea with Watson' as: Take a break from adventuring and stop at 221 Baker Street for awhile. White tea, delicious yellow cake, and a dash of cream caramel layered over light tobacco and bay rum. It smells just like a tea party at Holmes and Watson's flat! This is a balanced unisex fragrance inspired by the world of Sherlock Holmes.

On my skin, 'Tea with Watson' is: Strong leather at first. I don't know why but it is and I like it. If a guy wore this around me, I would instantly be attracted to it, so I can see how it is a unisex scent. The tea comes in right after it settles on my skin. It isn't overdone or too much. It smells precisely how I would picture 221 Baker Street to smell, and for that, I thank Sarawen profusely.

Do you love Sherlock Holmes? Tried this or any of her scents? Tell me all about it!
