      Agreed, and the price is pretty reasonable for four 15 mL bottles!

    There’s something kinda wonderfully pure and silly about a “blinged” VS pink rollerball with fake crystals on it. I am not that woman, but for the right person, it’s kinda perfect!

    Oh! I have to give some love to Oscar de la Renta. The old Oscar perfume was my first and favorite grown-up fragrance.

    Now I must get my hands on some of these new Oscar scents . . . thank goodness I no longer live near a Saks, that slows me down. :)
