It’s about time, I am finally writing the red camellia revitalizing cream review by Chanel while it is currently on my face. Chanel’s red camellia…

ATEEZ SMALL PERFUME REVIEW: CHANEL — ALLURE HOMME SPORT

disclaimer: this is not meant to be a serious perfume review, this is something fun for me to do as I love perfume. each and every one of us have different tastes and preferences when it comes to fragrances. what works for me might not work for you, vice versa. I’ll try my best to describe the scents but I will always suggest for you to go and smell them yourself before purchase. if you want to try these perfumes, please test or get a sample before committing to the bottle. picture credits to all owners.

ateez members: mingi & wooyoung

fragrance family: fresh & woody

notes:

top — italian mandarin

heart — cedarwood

base — tonka bean, white musk

my scent experience:

it opens very citrusy from the mandarin but its not intense. the mandarin fades into an aromatic scent, I’m guessing from the cedarwood and its a little spicy too but its definitely a lighter scent as opposed to a heavier scent that I expected from this fragrance. the dry down is heavy on the cedarwood and I don’t smell the base notes at all. definitely for someone who likes cedarwood. this fragrance also didn’t have that weird chemically sharp scent in the background like other men fragrances do so that was nice.

the longevity is alright, I would say this lasts about 4 hours on me but I did expect it to last longer. the projection is quite loud in the beginning but it simmers down as it dries. if you like citrus and cedarwood, this fragrance would work for you.

additional notes from me:

this is one of the few fragrances specifically marketed towards men that I tolerate. that being said, I personally wouldn’t purchase a bottle for myself, not because I’m not the target demographic but because I don’t really vibe with it. I think for a guy who wants to get into fragrances but doesn’t know where to start, I would recommend this perfume as while not my favorite, it’s a good one to start off with.

who would I recommend this to?

anyone who likes citrus and woody scents.

those who want a good designer fragrance on the masculine side.

anyone who wants to try out Chanel perfumes.

if you’ve made it to the end, thank you for reading this review! Chanel is an iconic fashion house and while they do have good fragrance options, this one isn’t for me. I don’t hate it but I also don’t think it’s the best scent in the market. I hope you liked reading this and let me know what your favorite fragrances are!

“The New Look” Episode 4 Review

The war has ended and Coco Chanel is celebrating, but is faced with the serious charge of being a Nazi collaborator. Meanwhile, Christian Dior struggles with an existential crisis in episode 4 of "The New Look".

Sneha Jaiswal (Twitter | Instagram) “You can’t possibly allow this man, this tormentor, this vampire to stifle your talents any longer! I need you by my side.” I think this is my favorite dialogue from “The New Look” episode 4, where Pierre Balmain, an unknown designer at the time, quits his job under French couturier Lucien Lelong and encourages his friend/colleague Christian Dior to do the…

The Last Command - Timothy Zahn

4.5/5 - Classic Star Wars action, good plot resolution and character arcs! I was happy all around, I think I just prefer Star Wars as a visual media. Totally recommend just for the fun of it though!

SPOILERS BELOW!!!!

Personally, I loved the irony that by pulling from Zahn's idea of Palpatine's cloning tanks as a failsafe instead of decanonizing it, Disney could have saved their new trilogy, but no! We got "somehow Palpatine has returned" and the Sith ghost soccer stadium instead.

I found Mara Jade's character arc to be really satisfying. The reveal that Palpatine's ghost was haunting her and compelling her behavior was a nice twist that I didn't see coming! It also makes her doubts and uncertainty about her own feelings, while still dogmatically pursuing Luke's death, feel much more real and much less hot and cold. I hated the potential implication that Mara and Luke might end up together in the future though. Just because they're both Jedi does not mean they're well-suited.

I was also impressed by the way Zahn handled Leia's pregnancy and the immediate aftermath. I'll admit that I was worried he might play down her role as the series (and her pregnancy) progressed but was pleasantly surprised to be wrong! The code-breaker being a droid* was fun and I appreciated how even the smaller characters played a big role in saving the Republic. It fits nicely in with the idea throughout the series that you can come from nothing and still have a big impact (e.g. Anakin/Luke/Rey literally coming from the middle of nowhere).

The secret planet/mountain with all of Palpatine's secrets was a little cheesy, but no more than I expect from Star Wars. I think this last battle also gave Thrawn a demise fitting of his villainy - he is winning because he's smarter than a lot of our protagonists for a while, and it's always refreshing to read a competent antagonist.

Overall, great fun was had by all! I like that this trilogy dealt with the politics of the New Republic but didn't get bogged down there, plus it introduced some more weird/fun worlds and even showed Lando on the way to his next scheme. One of my favorite parts about Star Wars is the different aliens and different planets they get to visit, so I was happy to see such an in-depth look at the Noghri in particular. Great read for Star Wars fans who haven't read anything in the universe yet but who don't want to commit to reading a long series, since the trilogy is fairly tight, plot-wise.

*if I remember correctly, it's been a couple months since I've read it

It's time for another list again: my top 10 perfumes for autumn 2023 -- scents of sophistication.

In many aspects of etiquette, there’s a fine line between the casual and the inconsiderate.

Here’s a link: top 10 perfumes for autumn 2023 – scents of sophistication. As per usual, for the complete rundown, with…

Hi guys,

For someone whose actual name is Chanell (Bella is my nickname from my Beauty & the Beast obsession when I was 4) you would think I have tried Chanel beauty before and yes I get asked all the time if it's my favourite brand but I've only ever tried a mascara. Looking at the brands new summer releases I noticed they have expanded their bronzer range!

They recently released a travel sized version of their iconic bronzer in more shades so today we are chatting about the CHANEL Les Beiges Healthy Glow Bronzing Cream Travel Size, 390 Soleil Tan Bronze , £37.00. The full size bronzer is usually £46.00 and originally came out in 2 shades but the new collection has 4 shades. I picked up the shade 390 Soleil Tan which is their new fair tone. When you look up Chanel Beauty one of their most viral products is the bronzer, everyone raves about how gorgeous the formula is, how easy it blends and how sunkissed it leaves your skin feeling.

As someone who is very fair I usually apply this bronzer with a light hand and then build up pigment depending on how I want to look. The formula is so easy to work with on the skin and I adore the finish it gives my face. Compared to the Charlotte Tilbury bronzer I would say this formula is more warm with a cooler undertone and the Tilbury one almost has a green undertone to their shade 1.

I love this bronzer especially how natural it looks on my complexion. I have worn it very sheerly on my face and built up and it looks flawless every time! As always all products mentioned in this blog post are linked above.

Lots of love

Bella x x

“The New Look” Episode 10 Review

What a fantastic series finale! Titled “What a Day This Has Been,” episode 10 of the Apple series “The New Look” simultaneously charts the rise of Christian Dior and the fall (sort of) of Coco Chanel. Episode nine had ended with Christian (Ben Mendelsohn) directing Madame Zehnacker (Zabou Breitman) to do whatever it takes to complete his new collection on time, a move that ruffles quite a few…

Met Gala 2023 review:

Jenna Ortega wearing Thom Browne and Marli Jewellery. 9/10

I love Jenna’s look it is so true to the theme, and the gold chain accents on the dress are stunning!! The black and gold convey a true air of regal ness and elegance known in Chanel. The shoes and the sock combination matching the neckpiece with the shirt and bow are gorgeously complimentary of each other. This design is authentic Chanel in every way. Loss of one point due to the hair, i do love it but i would’ve appreciated an up do to enhance the neckline and shoulder pieces of the dress.

Overall, this look has to be one of my favourites this year!!!

Lmk if you want me to review anyone else!!!
