The Daily Spritz: DIY Signature Scent!

I'm playing mad scientist today.

As I've previously mentioned I LOVE C.O. Bigelow Lemon Eau de Parfum. Recently, I've been cheating on my lemon lover with something a little more gourmand — The Perfect Autumn Ginger Vanilla Fragrance Mist. Today however, my two loves met, and let's just say the results were...YUMMY!

If I thought either made me smell good enough to eat before, watch out! I now smell a bit like a lemon chiffon cake with a graham cracker crust...too scrumptious for words. (Admittedly, smelling like a dessert isn't for everyone, but to me it's HEAVENLY!)

LITTLE MISS WARNING: Mixing scents is not for the faint of heart! My advice — do a little trial before you go out on the town with a spritz of this, a dab of that and mist of something else...otherwise you could end up being the girl with stink lines like Pig-Pen from The Peanuts!

I started my DIY by just putting the two spritzers up to my nose at the same time to see if they'd even begin to blend together nicely. Try spritzing your desired concoction on a sheet of clean white paper, and wait 'til it dries to give it a sniff test. It's easy to tweak on paper vs once you've gotten yourself all soaked in scent! 

Do you mix fragrances or have a really unique blend you love?
