IG: I never Tire of Winning

My second time to win!

I had captioned a picture on Natalie Wood's  official IG account and, surprisingly, my entry won. Yay!!!
I am thrilled to have recently received my awesome prize of a small bottle of Natalie Eau de Parfum.  I personally love the fragrance, and this further affirms my decision to have the fragrance top my Favourite Fragrances List.

TRY IT!
If you're on the fence on yet another celebrity perfume, why not order a sample for $5 on the Natalie Fragrance website and see for yourself.

FYI:  Ms Wood's birthday is coming up.  I received an email from their website last month that they will have 20% off on their products from July 20-22nd.

Natalie Wood's Favorite Scent

pc: wikipedia

Lovely Natalia/Natasha Zakharenko, aka Natalie Wood the actress, drowned under mysterious circumstances in 1981.  That  was a sad November day for my sister and me as we were fans of the actress.  My younger sister even copied her hair-cut.  Our youngest daughter shares her birth day; and if I were to name the girl-crush of my teen years, it would have been the beautiful Ms Wood. 

Ms Wood's favorite perfume was Jungle Gardenia  by Tuvaché.  Her daughter,  Natasha Gregson-Wagner, had fond childhood memories of her mom wearing it often; and has recently honored her thru creating a new fragrance called Natalie.  Her mom's favorite scent, gardenia  was combined with hers, orange blossom.  Ms Gregson-Wagner has described it as  "a nice, happy smell."  I bought a sample before fully committing. I was running low on my Jo Malone collection; and I did not want to completely run-out of  Eau Des Merveilles by Hermes (I consider it a precious farewell gift from my now-living-in-Europe son). 

Not bad. It's a thumbs-up from me and hubby. It reminds us of the land of our birth. Gardenias were a common garden plant and a familiar aroma in our country.  I need to know other people's thought, though. I am especially interested in its staying-power. I will begin its official use tomorrow, and see how it goes during morning church services.
