My good friends Janice, Jean, LJ, Zubli, Nessa, Debbie, Adrian, Emila, Bokjae and NAFASg know just how much I love my Iced Latte and they sometimes "drop" some off for me at my chat box or my Facebook. So when I saw this quiz over at Blogthings, I instantly knew it would end up at my blog sooner or later! A true coffee lover like me would LOVE to know what my Latte says about me!

Apparently I am addicted to caffeine, oh that I already knew! I do have to agree with my number 1 as well. The worrywart in me is constantly worrying about everything and everyone around me. I hardly treat myself to anything special since I'm always running around doing one thing or another. And I really think it's high time I start pampering myself, starting with another Perfume Shopping Spree perhaps? ;)

So how about you? Would you like to have a cup of latte with Mariuca and share your latte personality with me? Have a great weekend and Happy EC Dropping to all my visitors! :)



What Your Latte Says About You




You don't treat yourself very often. You find that indulging doesn't jibe with your very disciplined life.

You can be quite silly at times, but you know when to buckle down and be serious.

You have a good deal of energy, but you pace yourself. You never burn out too fast.

You're addicted to caffeine. There's no denying it.

You are a child at heart, and you don't ever miss the opportunity to do something playful.

You are expressive and friendly, but you are never pushy.

No one can deny this best fragrance

Oriental fragrances


These fragrances are associated with Far East. Their base is designed around exotic spices and flowers, sandalwood and resin. The first perfumes of such kind were introduced in 1925 by Guerlain under the name of Shalimar. The oriental fragrances are very strong and in the eighties when there became very popular, they became also banned by the owners of some of the big companies in their office buildings. Oriental scents are not in fashion all the time. However, those who like them are usually very fond of them. The typical example here is Obssession by Calvin Klein from 1985.




ROMANTIC


You love being a woman & enjoy lace touches, soft florals, & pearls.

Vetiver Racinettes was born out of two forces: my curiousity to study this intriguing and versatile note; and a deep need that I can only describe as therapeutic at that time, which lead me specifically to that essence. The result of this vetiver journey is a perfume that contains all of the elements that I've ever loved in the vetiver scents I've tried, as well as my own conclusions from my journey in the route of vetiver. It has the warmth of earth and firey spices and at the same time - the coolness of clay and vetiver curtains sprinkled with water; the medicinal dryness of herbs and grasses and the luxurious tenacity of woods; the sweetness of tarragon and earth with the bitterness of coffee and mud.

Chypre fragrances


These fragrances are the smallest yet the most unique group of perfumes. Therefore women who love this scent will always love it, and those who cannot stand it, will never wear it. The basic note here is oak moss scent which gives it very specific aroma of soil. Then others notes of ciste labdanum are added. The complementary notes are: patchouli, rose or bergamot. The examples here are: the classic Aromatic Elixir by Clinique (1972) and recent Rush by Gucci (1999).

Reduce your exposure to Pollution


Not everyone can live in a smog-free environment, but we can all avoid smoke-filled rooms, high traffic areas, breathing in highway fumes and exercising near busy thoroughfares. Exercise outside when the smog rating is low. Exercise indoors in air conditioning where air quality is good. Plant lots of shrubbery in your yard. It's a good pollution deterrent. If you ride a bicycle in traffic, where a small pollution mask over your mouth and nose.

Something you can't miss about 3121 perfume

Body care and massage oil (basic recipe)


100 ml of botanical oil,
20 drops (0,7 ml) of essential oil,
3 capsules of vitamin E (optionally).

Carrier oils can be mixed in various proportions (with a few exceptions). In my opinion, jojoba oil is absolutely essential. It is long � lasting and stays fresh for a long time.

Persons with less sensitive skin can use even 5 ml of essential oils for 100 ml of carrier oil

Sonnet XVII (100 Love Sonnets, 1960)

I don't love you as if you were the salt-rose, topaz
or arrow of carnations that propagate fire:
I love you as certain dark things are loved,
secretly, between the shadow and the soul.


It might not relevant but this discount perfume is awesome !!

Natural cleansers


Dip into your fridge for facial cleansers when your regular cleanser runs out. In a pinch buttermilk, yogurt and even cream are gentle, natural skin cleansers.

Blending oils and making your own perfumes


Essential oils can be blended both in body care products (from 3-4 to maximally 6 oils) and in perfume. In perfume production 6-9 oils are used as main and 3-6 as nuances (the more experienced person the more oils).
Making your own perfume

It�s best to start with 4-5 oils. You should follow these rules when creating your own fragrance:

* There should be three notes: Top note, Middle note and Base note 5-10% Base note, 30-70 % Middle note and 10-40% Top note or:
* 3 parts (30%) Middle note- middle and strong notes for the theme
* 2 parts (20%) Base note-strong, long lasting notes for the undertone
* 4 parts (40%) Top note- light, volatile notes for the overture
* 0.5 part (0.5%) Top- middle note � to blend these two notes
* 0.5 part (0.5%) Middle-base note � to blend these two notes

You can always follow your own rules but there is one common practice: mix all drop by drop and keep controlling the aroma while doing this.

Making your own, new perfume you must start with the middle note which enhances the theme.Then you add the base note defining the undertone and the top note for the overture. Top and bottom heart notes are always made at the end as they act as a go-between for top, middle and base notes.

In feminine fragrances there are always floral and fruity fragrances in the middle, that are completed with other matching notes:

* Floral, light- delicate and subtle flowery fragrances with fruit and citrus tones.
* Floral, green- floral notes with leaf, grass and moss overtones
* Floral, green- typically floral fragrances
* Floral, sweet (heavy) � exotic, luscious and sweet with balmy and woody overtones
* Fruity, heavy and sweet- heavy, sweet fragrances with fruity overtones

Selecting the oils you should follow your individual taste (favorite fragrances) and needs (to relax, refresh, for body or skin care or to help in medical problems). The oils must be mixed in harmony. You can�t use the oils that are all dominating, strong or don�t go well together. Creating a fragrance, it�s good to take notes and remember the quantity and the type of oil used. It will be helpful next time.

You should read descriptions of the oils before you mix them. Some of them are unsuitable for pregnant women as they are strong and irritant (you may use them only in small amounts). They can cause photo-allergic reactions (you can�t expose yourself to the sunlight)
