Calming bedtime tea 🍵
Such a really good fresh, spicy herbal citrus tea. So calming and cool for the hot and bothered night ahead.

Love at first sniff
I tried it in store and thought ooooooohhh I’m going to need that. I wore it for about an hour and purchased a full bottle that same day. I love the opening, middle and dry down
