A Peek at Pink Mafia

A Peek at Pink Mafia

It's the last day of Perfume June and I've come to the very end of my list, alphabetically, I mean... 
Last but not least, let's take a peek at Pink Mafia! 
Official description: 
WHEN PINK IS A LIFESTYLE CHOICE. Refreshing, crisp pink grapefruit mixes beautifully with sweet, floral rose, and the pair is grounded by earthy, green violet, with a little kick of spicy black pepper. It smells like, well… pink! And a little green, thanks to the violet. And warm, thanks to the pepper. It's uplifting, energizing, sophisticated… wear it every day, like your favorite neutral. I mean… pink is a neutral, right?! 
How it got its name: 
I was going for something that was unapologetically feminine and floral, but not too sweet. This scent has a little unusual kick to it, and I think the name fits it just perfectly. 
What it's made of: 
pink grapefruit oil, rose absolute, (centifolia) violet leaf absolute, black pepper oil 
Color: 
Light to bright yellow, depending on how orange my current lot of rose absolute looks. 
Viscosity: 
Very light. There's shouldn't be any sediment in the roll on or spray. 
Top notes: 
fresh, zesty, sweet citrus grapefruit and bright rose 
Middle notes: 
warm, earthy spicy black pepper and grassy green violet leaf 
Base notes: 
sweet, delicate floral rose with subtle green violet leaf undertones 
Aromatherapy benefits: 
This is a power fragrance. It's spicy, uplifting, energizing, and bold, yet bright and cheery. Violet leaf is said to help overcome shyness, so this is something you can wear whenever you need a boost or help honoring your heart and standing up for yourself. 
Pairs well with: 
Blissed, Florcore, Goddess 
Give it your own unique twist by adding: 
bergamot, lemon, lime, neroli, vanilla, chamomile, jasmine, ginger, patchouli, vetiver, sandalwood, cedar wood, lavender, frankincense, geranium, eucalyptus, basil, rosemary, peppermint 
Staying power: 
Great! The violet leaf acts as a fixative in this scent. Violet leaf is a really interesting smell that goes on smelling like fresh cut grass and fades into something more sweet, delicate, and floral as it wears. If you think this scent is a bit too fresh and zesty at first, you might actually like it more as the day goes on.
