Vintage Chic Scents: Mamma Mia!




I thought I could resist. I was going to resist. But Mamma Mia!!! I couldn't. Vintage Chic Scents restocked over a week ago and while everyone was scrambling for fall goodies I sat eyeing the scent Mamma Mia. Days passed and yet they remained in stock. Finally, I just went for it.

Sorry the pic is blue, there was a storm coming and the light outside kept shifting strangely so I used some creative license to make it pop!
Mamma Mia is a sweet gardenia coconut cream. This is a scent I adore. The white, rich, tropical gardenia is tempered by a coconut gream glaze. A unique blend that gets compliments when melted.



A single scent shot in Let It Snow, a frosted winter berry scent. I knew better than to get this but I did. I have this weird thing where I am not a fan of berries and mint. It always comes off medicinal to my nose. Like inhaling cherry Ny-Quil. But I am probably in the far minority, and hey! That is why fragrance is so neat. We all respond differently to smell. I will tuck this one away for a gift.


Freebies! I love freebies <3 Free samples in:

The Great Pumpkin- reviewed previously on cold, a stellar pumpkin roll ups with cream cheese frosting.
 
Autumn in Salem- Delicious pumpkin pie, extra cinnamon and a touch of flaky crust.

Vintage Chic Scents is opening again today between noon and 1:30 central time. Maybe I will finally snag Jackie O Loves Fall....


Any fun plans this beautiful Sunday? My honey has to work all day today and overnight. Today is the 5 Sisters Crafternoon. We will be getting down making our Mason jar pumpkins. Hope you have a lovely day as well!

  1. Ah, glad you got some Autumn in Salem. I was going to chop my leaf and drop a chunk in your Fall Friends Box. Or would like me to still add it, so you have more?

    I got one scent shot of Let It Snow too. I like it. I have not gotten The Great Pumpkin yet, and am thinking about trying today. (Restock is today?)

    I'm also doing mason jar pumpkins today. You'll probably have yours done first. Hope there is bloggage! I'm also working on the FFBoxes, and have a Vikings game to watch. It's very fall-like here today, 47 degrees, breezy, but sunny. Love it!

    1. I was happy to see Autumn in Salem tucked in there :-) Please keep yours! I appreciate that you were going to share it <3

      Now I know who I can give my Let it Snow to! Yea yuh! I am hoping to nab one bag of Jackie. If you decide to spring for the Great Pumpkin I hope you can. I like it a lot! If you don't get it, I will pass the rose sample of it to you. I have a whole leaf in it still.

      I will snap pics of today for sure! Guess what Heather requested?! Butterbeer! So I am cooking the syrup on the stove right now. Yum. Sounds like we both have a fun day ahead. I want to see your pumpkins too!

    2. Now I don't know if I'll try for a VCS order. I see she's restocking during the Vikings game. I'll be glued to the TV. Well, there's always halftime....lol!

      Butterbeer, mmmm. Hubby bought a big bag of Butter Rum Lifesavers for me a few weeks ago. I'll suck on one while I paint pumpkins and it'll be like I'm there with you all. =P

    3. Then consider the rose yours! I was able to snag Beautiful Jackie O Loves Fall so one of those will accompany The Great Pumpkin too. Sorry about your game :-/

    4. Yeah, that game was baaaaaaaad. Four interceptions and a blocked field goal returned for a touchdown.....??? GAH! At least Sunnee's Chargers won for her.

  2. I am dying to try Autumn in Salem. I melted my The Great Pumpkin and LOVED it. I've never tried Mamma Mia, though. I don't normally gravitate towards florals, but it sounds like that one is more tropical?

    1. Hi Liz! Your photo is so beautiful! Yes, definitely more tropical! The coconut makes all the difference. The Great Pumpkin smells good! Can't wait to melt it!

  3. Mamma Mia is so, so nice! I am glad you got lots of it. Berries and mint have the same weird effect on me, like they don't belong sometimes! Hope you get your Jackie O Loves Fall soon!
