Zoe Kravitz Is Vera Wang’s Princess

Michelle Smith — Thu, 12 Nov 2009 01:18:29 +0000

Vera Wang has relaunched the Vera Wang Princess scent with Zoe Kravitz as the new face of the fragrance. The stage is set with Zoe in her “royal bedroom…a modern day princess… in her Vera Wang ball gown…

The Vera Wang people really know females – my daughter is in love with this ad campaign and she’s still working me to get the Princess sample bottle for her own. It has the cutest little crown at the top. I think it’s safe to say that this appeals to “princesses” of all ages.

I like the fragrance – a Fruity Floral. It smells a bit like a fancy raspberry chocolate to me. Not an overly sweet chocolate, but a grown-up chocolate, one of those that comes in a beautiful box, almost too pretty to eat. My only problem with the scent is that it fades fairly quickly. I wish it was available in an eau de parfum.

Fragrance notes: Apple, Water Lily, Golden Apricot, Mandarin Meringue, Pink Guava, Tahitian Tiare, Tuberose, Dark Chocolate, Vanilla, Amber, Woods

Vera Wang Body Lotion

Kelly Townsend — Tue, 30 Jun 2009 03:10:18 +0000

In the summertime, I don’t like to wear perfume or other heavily fragranced products, but I do like perfumed body lotions. Lately, my favorite is Vera Wang Princess Body Lotion. Yes, I know the fragrance has been out for quite sometime. And actually, I don’t wear the perfume itself — it’s a little too floral for me. However the body lotion is just perfect.

Lightly scented with the exotic fruity floral perfume, it has notes of vanilla and guava that give it a summer sweetness that I really love.

Unlike some other perfumed lotions, this one is actually a really good product too. Incorporating cocoa butter, shea butter and aloe vera, it hydrates and nourishes your skin while infusing antioxidant vitamins A, C and E.

The result is silky, super soft skin that smells fresh and delicious. You can get the Vera Wang Princess body lotion at most department stores including Neiman Marcus, which sells a 5 oz tube for $32.

What about you? Do you use perfumed lotions? Leave a comment and let us know your favorites!

Five Fabulous Fragrances

This is definitely an ever-changing list and it comes in no particular order. Here are my favorite fragrances right now. What are yours?

Vera Wang Princess
Maybe it’s because my husband calls me “Princess.” Maybe it’s because I love the scent of vanilla. I’m not sure what the reason is, but I really love Vera Wang Princess. The sweet fruity scents blend well with the floral notes, musk and vanilla for delicious treat.

Coco Mademoiselle
Though Chanel No.5 might still be the top Chanel perfume sold, I much prefer the sexy, spicy sophistication of Coco Mademoiselle. It’s so luxurious!

Estee Lauder Beautiful
I have always been a big fan of Estee Lauder, from their fabulous eyeliner to their collection of wonderful fragrances. The floral scent of Beautiful is probably my favorite, but I also like the citrus in Beyond Paradise Blue.

Kai
Kai has been a mainstay for me for a couple years. Kai originally came out as as a perfume oil and that’s actually the way that I prefer to use it because it lasts longer. It has a fab gardenia scent.

Curious by Britney Spears
Celebrity scents are sometimes horrible, but I’m a big fan of Curious by Britney Spears. This scent is a white floral that features magnolia and vanilla-infused musk notes. It’s sexy, flirty and fun. Oh and it’s cheap – just like Britney I also love the shower gel.
