Last minute gift idea #1 – Kiehls Aromatic Blends Vanilla & Cedarwood

Vanilla scent doesn’t have the best connotations. If you think of vanilla perfumes you might think of cheap and sticky sweet drugstore teenage scents or of baroque 80s hammers like Dior Poison.

But doesn’t just anybody love the simple pleasure of vanilla ice cream or crème brûlée? (I don’t mean not the artificial flavoured ones.) Like natural vanilla taste, natural vanilla scent isn’t a sticky monster. It has also a fine and dry, feminine smell which is perfect for grey winter days.

With its new origins line “Aromatic Blends” Kiehls offers the perfect fresh and dry, woody modern vanilla: Vanilla & Cedarwood. The line is perfect to treat your best mates or just yourself for christmas.
My tip is the rich and silky shower gel with natural oils – it wraps around you like a blanket and makes your skin softer like you favourite angora sweater. I swear!
