Explore Your Senses With Scentbird Perfume Subscription

This post is sponsored by Scentbird perfume subscription and I received a commission in exchange for collaborating with them. All opinions expressed are my own. If you would like more information please refer to my disclosure policy.

If you are like me – you have a collection of perfumes and scented body sprays. I tend to always purchase the same scents over and over, however, I also want to be able to try other fragrances as well. Sometimes I want to step out of my comfort zone and try a new fragrance but do not want to commit to purchasing a full bottle of it. When I heard about Scentbird, I just had to try it out.

Scentbird perfume

Scentbird is a monthly subscription for perfume lovers. Scentbird perfume subscription gives you access to 400 designer brands that you can try every month for just $14.95. For the monthly subscription price you receive a 30-day supply of the perfume you choose.

If you’re not sure about picking a perfume, Scentbird makes that easy for you. They use a Truscent™ perfume algorithm that will reveal the scents that are perfect for you. When you first sign up it asks about scents you currently enjoy and goes through a huge database of what they call “scent profiles” to find suggestions for you. From the suggestions, you can pick the one that you would like to receive for the month and they will ship it to you.

These are the fragrance suggestions that Scentbird gave me based on my preferences. I decided to try the first one listed Givenchy Very Irresistible Sensual which is described as “A seductive blend of a bouquet of various roses, star anise, patchouli, and vanilla. The creamy scent is housed in a beautiful purple bottle.”

Scentbird Perfume Suggestions

You can choose one of the suggestions or you can also pick something else that you think you would enjoy. If you know for sure which ones you are interested in you can build your queue (which can also be re-arranged if you change your mind about which fragrance you want to receive.) They also offer gift sets and subscriptions for men as well.

If you’re worried about not liking a particular fragrance – don’t you worry your pretty little self – Scentbirds allows you to try new fragrances every month without committing to a full bottle. Or if you’re like me, sometimes you are in a certain “scent mood” for awhile and it changes – with a different scent every month you get to try out different scents without having to splurge on a full size bottle. A girl has got to have options!

Thousands of women love Scentbird because it gives access to the best fragrances without breaking the bank. $14.95 a month is such a great deal for the opportunity to try out a new fragrance. They also offer you the opportunity to get a month for free by purchasing a month for a friend. Isn’t that great?

I hope that you found the Scentbird perfume subscription as exciting as I did. I am so excited to go and fill up my queue of new fragrances. I know some friends and family members that are going to love hearing about this as well.

Added bonus: They are currently running a great offer. If you give a free month to your friend, you get a free month when they subscribe. Click here for more information.

Check out Scentbird today and let me know what your favorite scent suggestion is. Are you into oriental, woody, fresh or floral notes? Let me know in the comments.

Blog Posts That Rock

I have a problem. I like to read blogs. A LOT. And I have so many different interests that I always end up in the most random places finding the best posts. Some are entertaining. Others are serious. Some are educational. No matter what – I always find something that I enjoy.

Since the semester is over and I have more time (sorta) I thought I would share some of my favorite posts from the blogs I have been reading lately. I hope that you enjoy them as much as I did.

Flashback Friday’s: The End Is Near

Hello there! I hope that you had a wonderful week! I know I did. I love that it is the holiday season. Do you know what I love almost as much as that? The end of a rough semester back in college. So read on to hear about what I have been up to this week!

flashback fridays hertaintedlips

So the last two weekends I spent working, studying and spending time with family. I am tired. Emotionally, mentally, physically… tired. I feel like everything was “up in the air” but it is finally all coming together.

I am so glad that the work I do from home is fairly easy and it doesn’t happen very often. Since we had a deadline and wanted things completed in a timely manner I somehow fit work in between everything else I had going on. I am hoping all of this wildness will wrap up right before Christmas *crosses fingers*

As far as studying goes – I took my last final of the semester on Monday evening. I had 2 more days to do it but I just wanted to get it over with so I could close the semester out already. Even though I absolutely love school and learning – it is time for the semester to end so I can have some time to focus on reading for pleasure instead of to pass an exam.

Most of the time spent with family was going from store to store and mall to mall for Christmas shopping. I do not know how my body survived. It was extremely fun yet exhausting at the same time. My feet are crying for a massage and a pedicure. I think the Christmas shopping is complete so I can rest my feet.

In blog life news: I have been offered some sponsor and review post opportunities. It seems like they are all coming at once. It is really exciting and I can’t wait to share the products and brands that I am working with.

This season/chapter of my life is coming to and end – I can’t wait to see what is in store for me next.

I hope that you all had a wonderful week and enjoy your weekend. We are having a Star Wars marathon at our house for my Brother-In-Laws birthday. This should be epic. What is your favorite Star Wars Episode? I will let you know which one is my favorite after this weekend since I haven’t watched them all yet. Looking forward to fun times and a glass (or bottle) of wine.

p.s. I thought this Instagram Husband video was hilarious. I need to get me an Instagram Husband to take all my pictures for me 😉

Don’t forget we are on Facebook too 🙂

I’m a Featured Blogger on Blogelina!!

Life has been really crazy lately. I have been super busy with work and school. The end of the semester is near and I have not been getting enough sleep lately. My body was like “enough already” last night and I fell asleep with my phone in my hand. HA!

Since I fell asleep earlier than usual my body also decided that I should wake up at 5:00am. Any other day I would go back to sleep, however, something inside of me said to stay awake. So I did. I decided to catch up on Twitter and to my surprise I found out that I was the Featured Blogger for this week at Blogelina! I absolutely loooooooove Tanya’s website and am so honored to be featured on Blogelina. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside. It made my heart smile and was just what I needed during this crazy time in my life.
