Spongelle is a bath and body product brand that’s known for their lovely scents. It comes as no surprise then, that they now have perfumes.
The summer and early autumn are ideal times for lighter eau-de-toilettes rather than heavier parfum extraits or eau-de parfums. Spongelle’s Private Reserve Eaux de Toilette are also available in 10ml recyclable glass spray vials, which slip inside beautiful floral cardboard sleeves. Ideal to store in a purse, backpack or luggage.
Initial launch includes four scents:
The Spongelle site offers each fragrance for $28. You can also purchase the four-scent collection for $112. Black Orchid & Peony Flower were sent to me for testing.
Black Orchid
Black Orchid is a great choice for those who like spicy fragrances.
Spongelle describes Black Orchid.
Spongelle Private Reserve Petite Eau de Toilette Black Orchid is one of the most popular fragrances. Black Orchid captures the fragrance of mandarin and bergamot, while also containing notes of exotic florals and musk. After showering, apply it all over or on its own for a more sophisticated look.
It smells just like an orchid-adorned tranquility
“It feels like an evening of special events is just about to start”
Fragrance notes:
Top: Bergamot, Juicy Mandarin, Orchid Petals
Middle: Jasmine, Black Gardenia, Lotus Flower
Base: Ylang Ylang, Sandalwood, Patchouli, Vanilla
The four base notes are my favorites. I especially love the citrusy Bergamot. You made a good choice.
Peony Flower
Peony Flowers is a fragrance that I love despite not being a fan of florals. Spongelle’s sponges, lotions and body washes are so floral-scented. Peony flower is an obvious winner, especially in the summer. This is a fragrant and light delight. The toilet water looks pretty pink.
Spongelle’s description of the fragrance:
Spongelle Private Reserve Petite Eau de Toilette in Peony Flower is one of the most popular fragrances. Peony Flower captures the fragrance of roses, apples and spicy musk. It is a sensual and spicy scent with exotic florals. Wear it alone or after using your favorite Body Wash Infused buffer to add a touch of elegance.
It smells just like a bouquet of fresh peonies that are in full bloom
Feels like a new, unexpected romance”
Fragrance notes:
Top: Rose Stems, Petitgrain, Red Apple
Middle: Damascene Rose, Waterlily, Papaya Flower
Base: Cashmeran, Clean Musk
This scent is lighter and modern than the traditional rose fragrances.
My garden’s peonies, particularly the burgundy varieties, don’t smell very strongly, but my large pink flowers do. Peony Flower is a great painting of my pink peonies!
