I ‘surfed’ the internet and actually found Scents of Hawai’i
I love Hawaiian products
Malie perfume fragrances are so authentically Hawaiian because Hawai’i-sourced ingredients are the foundation of each one.
Natural island botanicals are combined with organic components and other ingredients to create fragrances that carry you to Hawai’i’s sandy beaches every time you close your eyes.
The scents are just strong enough to be unmistakable without being overpowering. That makes all of them ideal for both daytime and nighttime use.
All perfumes are conveniently shaped and sized to travel in a purse or clutch.
Perfect if you use small handbags and clutch bags like I do.
Plumeria Perfume Oil (Roll-On) – SALE!
I was drawn to this as it has a gift bag and is nice for Christmas or a present.
plumeria
A soft, sensual floral with a hint of spice that is reminiscent of a fresh frangipani lei. This aroma greets you with lush island greens and a kiss of uplifting citrus. Essences of plumeria, gardenia and jasmine blossom over smooth, milky sandalwood. Celebrate the vibrant beauty and cultural wonders of Hawai’i.
• Top: Greens, Citrus
• Mid: Frangipani, Floral
• Base: Jasmine, Sandalwood
Then this perfume
Pikake Eau De Parfum
pikake
For generations, pikake, also known as Hawaiian jasmine, has been called the “flower of love” due to its aphrodisiac and seductive qualities. This heavenly aroma opens with the freshness of dewy greens after an evening rain shower. The heart of this floral couples romantic night-blooming flowers of jasmine, pikake, and tuberose to a sultry, skin-embracing musk that embodies the warmth of Hawaiian nights.
• Top: Citrus, Green
• Mid: Pikake, Tuberose, Jasmine
• Base: Musk
Sounds intoxicating
Body Cream Gift Set
This is a good way to try the fragrances and you can perfume layer
Well worth browsing the whole website if you are a fan of Hawai’in fragrance too.

Dana on Amazon
Have been trying to find this, I think my mum gave me a bottle of it once and it was my first perfume or one of them. Boots used to stock it. The other was original Chloe which my mum’s Italian friend bought for me.
Just brought back lovely memories.
Was when I had an Art Exhibition like Eva Gabor lol!!
Sold a few, but gave up.
Would really like to get this for memory sake.

Fragrance x stock dana but not zig zag, a lot are on a waiting list
Chantilly Perfume

This video works
This is unbelievably pretty, but is on a waiting list, wonder if it is being restocked?
I’d buy this as well
Have to say I hope they restock this back in Boots.
If you are American reading this, Boots used to be a high-street chemist that expanded its range of Beauty products. I’m not sure what end of the market it was but you could afford to shop there if you hadn’t a lot of money. I think it was styled like an expensive high street chemist, but for people who weren’t really well off. It stocked high end product as well so rich people shopped there as well.
When I was a teenager it had a massive counter called No17. It was really good but not expensive.
Then an advert came out called here comes the girls with a fanfare of trumpets and people like me got our shower gels and makeup squashed into a little aisle and really expensive products got the main floor space.
Not being funny, but I went to Boots for toiletries, tights, shampoo, No 17 or No 7 priced makeup, electrical beauty products, perfume like Dana, spa products and so forth.
For expensive perfume and makeup, I went to department stores as you got nicer bags and high end experience.
Wondering if I’ve discovered something here as there are so many waiting lists on fragrance X.
You have to order Boots online now, which I’ve got used to, I hope it comes back now Covid is over though as I would get my heavy stuff delivered, but still browse the shop for makeup, etc., and try the Dana perfume testers. It is guesswork otherwise.
It is still there but mainly for online order pickups.
Conclusion
I can’t deny I like expensive perfume, but at the moment I can’t get any perfume.
The perfume I used to get has gone a bit over the top and seems too expensive.
I also used to buy perfumes like Charlie and Black Lace which aren’t very expensive but have fragrances that smell expensive, so make your budget spin out further and you can have a lot of perfume rather than just one or two.
I’m not corporate sales, like I said before, but I did do door-to-door sales, so I know who has the disposable income to buy products.
Whoever sells perfume at the minute possibly hasn’t started from the bottom and worked their way up.
Fragrance x reminds me of what Boots used to be maybe as it stocks brands I’m starting to remember.
Some of the women who would love Fragrance X probably don’t have computers and probably never will, so it doesn’t work for everyone.
I’m a fan of fragrance x now, but seems to me they should get some of their products back into Boots.
must admit I love my computer, but I would like to spend less time on it.
I find the Gabor sisters really addictive. They are amazing me this weekend as have discovered so much about them.
Wondering if they are in my memory somewhere.
It seems certain things have disappeared that shouldn’t have disappeared.
Hope this helps with what some people are doing to keep memories alive, with Zsa Zsa and Eva Gabor I finally get it as it has led to black Lace perfume.
Why has someone tried to hide the memories of films and perfume?
Well, Weekend TV and Perfume Junky will be here for you and they will keep contributing their bit, especially now I’m starting to put two and two together.
Hope you like this Perfume Junky
and wonder if you feel the same.
Have a lovely Saturday
