I combine Spicebomb with Pacifica Island Vanilla! It’s heavenly, but it’s starting to warm up where I live, and I don’t know how well Spicebomb is working with the hot weather. I can’t seem to find anything for the summer that is light but lasts more than an hour or two. I have Lavanila’s Grapefruit Vanilla, but it hasn’t really grabbed me.
That combo sounds really nice!
It’s like the same winners every year. Where can we find the nominees?
If you click “Fifis” in the tags, it will take you to other articles with the finalist, etc. on NST.

Thanks guys! WHAAAT?! Dot beat Petale Noir AND COCO NOIR?! WHAAAAAATTTTT!?!?!?!?!?!!?
Very surprising that True Reflection beat Fame (and Reflection is the superior scent)
Surprised Fame didn’t win for the ad but that Boucheron ad is BEAUTIFUL! That wouldve been a hard one for me to pick a winner out of Boucheron, Manifesto and Fame
I would have picked the Prada out of that group. Dot is doing really well this year in the awards though.
Oh, and looks like Dot just won the Cosmetic Executive Women beauty award today too….
Yay Spicebomb! One of my fave mainstreamers and it seems to be doing well. I do see it on the women’s counter more often than not, though.
It’s doing very well in the 2013 awards, that’s for sure.
