Kiehl's Aromatic Blends Collection

Using 30% less ingredients than conventional fragrances, Kiehl's recently launched their Aromatic Blends body fragrance collection. Each of the four fragrance blends are available as a Fragrance, Skin-Softening Body Lotion and Skin-Softening Body Cleanser. Both the body lotion and cleanser are supposed to deliver 24 hours of hydration.

I like the Vanilla & Cedarwood fragrance - this one is made with sustainable, fair-trade vanilla oil from Uganda. I normally don't like vanilla but this one is nicely grounded with cedarwood. For whatever reason the Fig Leaf & Sage carried a sweet tropical scent in the body lotion formula. I could detect the grapefruit in the Nashi Blossom & Pink Grapefruit but the Nashi blossom seemed a bit too strong. Ditto with Orange Blossom & Lychee - I wished there was more lychee in this blend to balance out the floral part.

I love cedarwood and sandalwood in lotions. They always make me feel like I'm away at some exotic locale.

Me too! But too much can be overwhelming.
