Every year, L’Artisan Parfumeur releases a limited edition summer fragrance. Last year, it was Ananas Fizz, which has notes of pink grapefruit, bitter orange, lemon rind, rum, rose, Reunion Islands Victoria pineapple, coconut milk, lychee sap, cedar, vetiver, and vanilla. The perfumer for Ananas Fizz was Anne Flipo.
I should start by saying that as a rule, I am very fond of the summer L’Artisans. First, the bottles usually score high on the cute factor (I do like the regular L’Artisan bottles, but I have plenty of them and it is nice to see something new). Second, they are often light and citrusy, which is right up my alley, especially in the summer. Third, they are cheaper (per ounce, anyway) than the regular line.
Ananas Fizz starts with sparkling citrus…
We had a wonderful beach vacation and as expected, I ate quite a few french fries. Also salt water taffy, crepes, and ice cream. I managed to stick to my usual beach-week weight gain of 5 pounds, although that is just a guess as I have no intention of stepping on the scale today.
