Valentines Day and movies go hand in hand: think the cliched romantic night at theatre, holding hands, sharing a buttered popcorn…hey, it’s cheesy, but cheesy is great too, right?
With that thought, why not channel your favorite romantic movie heroine with a scent that mirrors her mysterious , charming, flirty or fun ways.

A cologne, lotion and bath oil that have seven types of roses from around the world bottled in them cannot be anything less than fit for the Queen. Or Helen Mirren.

The scent is not overpowering; it’s like a whisper but before you know it you’re smelling like a garden. It has a heart of crushed violet leaves and hints of lemon and spearmint.
