Reed What Matters

Leslie Blodgett, CEO of Bare Escentuals, created Leslie Blodgett Perfume Diaries which is a “limited edition fragrance collection, created exclusively for Sephora, that revisit and evoke pivotal moments in Leslie’s life.” Bare Skin being the first scent of this creative series starts with a scent that reminds Leslie of a trip she took to Mexico. The sun shining down upon her, the beach setting gave her a carefree spirit and the hope is that each of us could feel carefree and inhabited to live a little with the help of Bare Skin. 

Receiving my sample for review in the mail I was excited and relieved.  Bare Skin scent isn’t overpowering yet is screams out a statement at the same time to say the least. Bare Skin has a hint of “black pepper, freesia and anise, heart notes of iris, vanilla orchid, plumeria and patchouli, and the dry down sizzles with sandalwood, labdanum and musk.” When I opened the package I could smell the scents of black pepper, anise, patchouli and sandalwood right away. My two favorite scents are Rose or that of Sandalwood so I grew even more excited to try out Bare Skin. 

I’ve been wearing Bare Skin for a few days now and I’ve received different reactions. My sister-in-law I asked outright what she thought after I placed a small amount on my wrist and neck. She told me, “That smells delicious… I wanna eat it!” I was laughing and told her back off. She knew immediately that there was sandalwood in Bare Skin. She let me know she wanted her own bottle. 

A few of my children told me I smelled good and asked me where I was going! That’s a good sign. The kids must have thought “Mommy smells special… it’s date night for daddy and mommy.”

Then the funniest reaction was that of my husband. He got out of his car and had arrived from a potluck at work. He smelled something good… he kept sniffing the air. Then took put his head in the car lightly and smelled again. He asked if that was me that smelled good. I laughed and told him about Bare Skin. He told me he was so worried he carried a scent home from one of the ladies dishes he had in his hand. Being we have six children, we have dibs on the leftovers, hence the reason he had “ladies dishes” (I should’ve warned him I had a new scent Ha Ha)! Too funny, my point is Bare Skin is a scent to make others “wanna eat” you up, make people wonder what your up to and where you are headed, and Bare Skin make others love the smell so much they get worried the wife is not going to understand. Not that Bare Skin is a trouble making scent, just that the scent of Bare Skin is just that… Bare skin is a flirty scent that is very comforting and earthy.
