A corrupt world

in its latter days...

but cherry blossoms!

The Cherry Blossom: symbol of status, beauty, honor, and life. Highly regarded by Japanese Imperials, immortalized by poets and artisans of ancient Japan. The Cherry Blossom remains as Japan's highly- celebrated flower up to this day, and a tradition called Hanami takes place every springtime when the Cherry Blossoms are in full bloom.

Elizabeth Arden captures the exquisite scent of the famed Cherry Blossoms in their new fragrance, GREEN TEA CHERRY BLOSSOM EDT. Inspired by the rich tradition of the Hanami festival, Elizabeth Arden infuses the iconic Green Tea fragrance with the enchanting and ethereal scent of blooming Cherry Blossoms.

Rustan's has invited me and a couple of beauty bloggers to a relaxing, Zen- inspired event at the Neo Day Spa, Net One, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig. It was a day of pampering, catching up with some of our beloved friends from Elizabeth Arden and of course, a day where we got to know more about this new and exciting fragrance from the brand.

Initial thoughts: It's love at first sniff! It reminds me of the dewiness of springtime! I'm happy to report that it is a great rainy season fragrance that Filipinas will surely love. It's warm but stays fresh all throughout. Never overpowering, and will definitely compliment women of all ages.

To complete your blushing spring look, why not check out Elizabeth Arden's new Rose Aurora Collection? It's a modern take on the 1950's collection designed by Elizabeth Arden herself.

Immerse yourself in romantic tones of Rose and sultry Gold shimmers. It's a limited edition collection, so be sure to grab some of it before they're gone for good.

EIGHT HOUR CREAM (Approximately P1,000.00+)- One of Elizabeth Arden's iconic products. It's a favorite the world over! This wonder salve protects your lips and skin from the biting cold and severe dryness for 8 long hours. It now comes in a fragrance- free variant, which is good for people who are overly sensitive to fragrance additives. I'm interested in this one!

CERAMIDE LASH EXTENDING MASCARA (Approximately P1,000.00+)- Aireen Mayol of Rustan's was wearing this during the event and my oh my, it truly made her lashes long, lean, and luscious! It's infused with Ceramides that help your lashes grow after a period of use.

Amazing event! Thank you guys for the wonderful time!

I've been using this perfume ever since the day I got it because it's one of the rare sparkling fragrances that speaks of my personality. I only have one HG sparkling fragrance, and that's Lanvin's Eclat D' Arpege. But looks like I have a second HG! :)

If you love the classic Green Tea, you might want to check this out because it's a softer and more feminine version of it.

**Elizabeth Arden Green Tea Cherry Blossom EDT comes in 50ml (P2,250.00) and 100ml (P2,950.00) sizes.
