Juniper and Citrus is the CVS Scent Winner!

During Spring 2010 Fashion week, CVS had an event at Robert Verdi’s awesome, Luxe Lab. One of the things Editors did, was vote for a new, Essence of Beauty scent.

The winner has finally been announced: Lemon Tea winning over Tangerine Clementine, by just one vote! The scent has been renamed Juniper & Citrus, and you should be able to find it now (or shortly) at your local CVS store. But it is so new, I can’t even show you a photo just yet!

What I can share is what it smells like. The Juniper & Citrus scent is light and energizing, with key ingredients being juniper berries, citrus, and sweet tea leaves. The scent has a drydown that smells sightly smokey, like green tea, but the lemony citrus shines through, making this a feel good scent that you can afford slather on, any time. It’s an innocently sexy scent that will work well on all body types, especially in the heat of the Summer.

 

The Body Mist comes in a clear pump bottle, with a frosted label featuring a luscious citrus/juniper graphic. The spray is light and refreshing. It has aloe vera to help soothe and condition your skin. I think it’s a great skin refresher in this hot, sticky weather.

 

The Body Lotion,in a flip top tube is 8 fl. oz. of very light lotion that won’t feel sticky on your skin, but it will moisturize with aloe vera and shea butter, and offersAntioxidants of Vitamins E & C.

In addition to the Juniper and Citrus, CVS is going to be debuting some of the other fragrances I got to smell during Spring Fashion Week: Wildflowers, Bergamot Sandalwood, and Romantic Bouquet. The best part is that none of these fragranced items will ruin your budget–they’re just $5.99 each.
