I am still just as excited about Scentbird as the first time I raved about it. Scentbird, for those of you who missed my last post, is a monthly perfume subscription service. It costs just $15 a month, and you receive a vial of perfume that's 0.34 oz (practically the size of a typical rollerball!) and a chic holder that you can switch the bottles in and out of. For a limited time, this fancy pink vial is available when you subscribe! The perfume you receive each month is totally up to you. You can pick from over 350 designer fragrances at Scentbird.com, so you never have to receive something that isn't your style. They're always adding new scents and if they don't have something you really want to try, they encourage subscribers to send them a note so they can add your scent to their library of fragrances.
This month, I chose to receive Jimmy Choo Stars, a limited edition fragrance that was launched in 2014. I'm not head over heels in love the original Jimmy Choo scent, but I have been a big fan of the spinoffs of the perfume. Stars is no exception - it smells so so good. If you've smelled Jimmy Choo before, it has that same basic scent that comes through strong, but there are also notes of citrus, patchouli, orchid, sandalwood and toffee. I can really pick up on the afternotes of toffee, which is quite a unique and interesting scent. If you're a fan of scents like Chloe or Miss Dior, you might like this perfume as well. Stars is sophisticated, feminine and sexy and if I didn't have a million perfumes to use, I'd consider placing an order for it right this second. I'd highly recommend Scentbird if you like to switch up your perfume or get bored easily with scents. It's an awesome way to try a new perfume before shelling out the big bucks on a large bottle. I'm a self professed perfume junkie, so you can bet I'm loving experimenting thanks to Scentbird! To start your subscription, just click here. Use the code SPRINGBIRD to get 15% off your first month!

I'm a self-professed perfume lover. You can get a blurry idea of just how many perfumes I have if you look above the Scentbird envelope. Yeah.... So naturally, Scentbird is maybe the most exciting subscription service I've stumbled upon as of late! Listen up, perfume-lovers, because you're going to LOVE this idea.
For $15 a month, you get a generous vial of perfume that plugs in to the sleek black holder you see above. You get the holder with your first month's delivery, and the next months you'll receive just the scent vial which you can swap in to the holder. You get complete control over what perfume you receive, and you can build a log of perfumes that you want to receive each month on the Scentbird website. There are over 350 designer fragrances that are completely authentic. Each sample is enough to last you a month, and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised at how large the vials are; they are 0.27 oz... for reference, a rollerball typically has about 0.34 oz. Not bad, eh?
For my first month, I chose Roses de Chloe by Chloe. I love the Chloe perfume, and I love roses so this was a complete no-brainer for me. This is a fresh scent, but not overly rosey if rose isn't your thing. Kind of a bummer for me, as I really do love rose, but I have to say I enjoy this scent a lot. It's classy and elegant, with notes of bergamot, musk and amber joined with rose. If you like scents such as Miss Dior Cherie, or Chance by Chanel, this will be up your alley. I love that I got a chance to sample this before splurging on a full-size or rollerball. I completely expected to be head over heels for this perfume, and while I do really like it, I don't need to run out to buy it. Once I get through my original Chloe rollerballs, I just might get Roses de Chloe to have in my collection. If you love perfume and don't like to spend tons of money on full-size bottles, or if you already have too many (like me!) and really can't justify the money on another perfume in your collection but still want to sample, Scentbird is for you! You can start your subscription at Scentbird.com! Next up on my list to try? Hermes' Kelly Caleche, Givenchy Very Irresistable Electric Rose, and Jimmy Choo Stars just to name a few. What would you try?
