In Southern California I think of Summer and going to the beach…not that you cannot go to the beach all year here. ?Summers at the beach are also times for tourists, friends and family gatherings. ?Bring your cooler, umbrella to shade you from the powerful rays of the sun, waterproof sun screen if you want to jump in the ocean, a good book, a blanket, sand chairs, music device of your choice, a frisbee and a smile.

The natural fragrant choices for summer tend to be citrus -y, light, florals, and ?have a fresh clean feel.

Here are a few choices from my Collections

From the French Collection??I like Chantelle for those hot, sultry summer evenings. Some of the notes are tuberose, jasmine, white rose, bergamot, vanilla, balsam woods, and others. When the tuberose and jasmine heat up on your skin you will be?irresistible!?? The soft, white rose will start the dry down with the vanilla and woods..and the powder notes will develop. Heavenly.

I love the Royal Collection?with many fabulous exotic florals. ?Magie D? Or is Gold Magic a?spicy oriental parfum that has lovely citrus notes to give it lift and sparkle just like fine champagne.?Notes:?Tuberose, Neroli, Lime, Cinnamon bark, Clementine, Rose de Mai, Cistus, Pink Pepper, Vintage Jasmine absolute, Ylang Ylang,?Lavender Seville, Frankincense, Patchouli, ?Benzoin, and others.

I also love Josephine ?with its fresh green scent. The notes are Verbena, lavender vera, litsea, green mandarin, ?bergamot, cardamom, star aniseseed, ylang ylang, alba rose otto, galbanum, and others.

All of my natural perfumes and eau de parfums come in travel sprayers. These are handy to carry in your pocket, purse, backpack, or suitcase. ?They have a removable glass vial you can refill.
