Laura Mercier La Petite Patisserie Eau Gourmande Fragrance Coffret: Mother's Day gift & Kentucky Derby scent

Hello Gorgeous!
Oh it's Tuesday! Let's all thank God for that! Now-I have two things to share today.

First, you know I love fragrance. Mother's Day is around the corner and now is the time to be buying fragrance for yourself and your Mama!

Have you experienced the new Laura Mercier Gourmande collection?


Oh these scents! They are rich and complex and I love layering them one on top of the other. Yes-I am guilty of wearing all three at the same time!

The Laura Mercier Eau Gourmande collection can be purchased at Neiman Marcus or Macys and Nordstroms. The set is $45 for the travel sizes and a full size individual bottle is just $50.

Each fragrance is unique, though the fresh fig is my favorite one.

The set you see in the photo is a smaller travel size version of all the fragrances and it makes a perfect gift for your mom! Here is a little more details about the gift set.

La Petite Patisserie Eau Gourmande Fragrance Coffret

Treat yourself to a delicious trio of Laura’s best-selling gourmande fragrance sprays. This limited edition collection includes three perfectly portable Eau Gourmandes in Vanille, Fresh Fig and Almond Coconut Milk. Warm, fresh and exotic, wear your favorite alone, or blend and layer for a custom gourmande scent.

 Now, the other thing going on that I like is the Kentucky Derby! Are you watching this weekend?
