Thankfully, with this blend, you'll never have to go through this dilemna. Vanilla-chocolate cupcake with buttercream frosting is the perfect complement to a scoop of chocolate ice-cream dotted with nuts and fluffy marshmallows. Oh and we added black cherries and banana slices to make this blend exctra special.

Black Patchouly (Another CLC Creation) *NEW* Spring 2011 Collection: Rich and deeply mesmerising, this blend takes patchouly, all earthy and loamy, and wraps it in a blanket of black orchids, white jasmines and blood red roses. In the background, you'll catch whiffs of burning incense, sandalwood mala beads and myrhh. While patchouly is definitely present in this blend, it never threatens to overpower the other notes. Rather it serves to enhance, deep and anchor the heady florals. This blend wears differently on the skin - more floral on some, spicier on others - but the result is all the same. and A deep appreciation for patchouly in all its dark and sensuous glory.

Blackberry Breezer (Another CLC Creation): A delightful summer blend of sweet and juicy blackberries at the base, a splash of red grapefruit to kick it up a notch and fizzy pink lemonade to up the sweetness factor. Sweet, refreshing and just plain fun! Everything a summer fragrance should be.

Blood Orange Cupcake (Another CLC Creation) *NEW* Kiss and Make Cupcakes Collection: A buttery vanilla chiffon cake envelops a blood-orange cream center and well...isn't that enough to make everything right?

A creamy concoction that perfects this dangerous combination of luscious blood-orange pulp, velvety vanilla cake and comforting buttercream frosting

Calabria (Another CLC Creation): Inspired by the famous citrus orchards and olive groves of Calabria, this blend evokes a vision of an afternnon stroll through an orange grove. The unmistakable scent of a fresh picked orange, with its sap still oozing, is this blend's center. In the distance, an accord of garden fresh red bell peppers, teakwood, olive leaf and sweet basil gives this blend its charm and character. Those looking for a green, slightly herbaceous citrus fragrance will be delighted.

Cannoli Cream Cupcake (Another CLC Creation) *NEW* Kiss & Make Cupcakes Collection: A rich white cake studded with dark chocolate chips hides a cannoli cream center. And if you love frosting, then mounds of it you shall have. Whipped buttercream sprinkled with dark chocolate shavings sits atop this treat. And if this isn't enough to make you swoon, then the drydown will surely do the trick. The creamy notes fold subtly into the background to reveal just the barest hint of soft florals, powdered sugar and a super-secret note that's sure to make your knees weak.

Coquette (Another CLC Creation): Bananas and luscious berries swirl around rich coconut milk. None of the delightful tropical fruit notes in this blend become too overpowering or dominant. Each note plays flirtatiously on the skin, revealing itself through batted eyelashes, then settles demurely into the background. A subtle flirt of a fragrance that's bound to make a big impact.

Green Apple Splash (Another CLC Creation) *NEW* Spring 2011 Collection: Crisp, fresh and spirited, this multi-layered composition is a study in how to keep green from being...well too green.

If you like crisp and exuberant fruit-based compositions, then you'll love this one.

Lei Some Sugar on Me (Another CLC Creation): Lei Some Sugar on Me is a seamless blend of exotic island florals, muscat and cabernet grapes and an unexpected splash of sweetness. This is a sophisticated treatment of the best grape fragrance we've come across. Almost-black muscat grapes, known for its sweet floral aroma, opens up to the blend's exotic frangipani heart. The drydown is divine, composed of sugar crystals, island blooms and the lingering sweetness of moscato wine. A CLC staff favourite.

Lemon Drop Cookie Cupcake (Another CLC Creation) *NEW* Kiss & Make Cupcakes Collection: This blend had us whining, "Why can't someone make this cupcake for real?" Starting with a lemon poppyseed cupcake, bloated with marshmallow fluff filling, we then added a vanilla-almond buttercream filling and finished it off with one hedonistic romp on a bed of graham cracker crust. The result is mouthwatering and unlike most lemon-based compositions you've experienced in the past. This blend is rich and robust, with a lot of depth and character - adjectives not normally associated with the sunny lemon sniff. But try it. If you're a lemon afficionado, then you'll love the unique take on your favourite note. If you're not, consider it anyway. It might just change your mind.

Lime with a Twist of Vanilla (Another CLC Creation) *NEW* Spring 2011 Collection: Oh this one's good! And wait till you get to the drydown. In this blend, we drizzled sweetened lime juice (think Rose's Lime Juice) into sweet vanilla cream and topped it off with wisps of cotton candy. There are no sharp citrus edges to this blend and the drydown is creamy, unhurried and satisfying. The vanilla really does a good job tempering lime's brightness and if lime could ever be described as comforting, this would be the blend to do it.

Nude Musk (Another CLC Creation): Sultry and a little bit naughty, this blend is a collision of two scents that are both smooth in their own right, but so totally different. The combination of coconut milk and Egyptian musk concocts a vision of tanned skin glistening in the sun and all that is hot and sexy about discovering an unexplored corner of a paradise island.

Saffron Musq (A CLC Collaboration Creation) *NEW* Spring 2011: This blend is a perfect example of a seamless fusion between notes you normally wouldn't think of putting together...and loving the end result. Perhaps inspired by the mysterious and exotic Spice Route, this blend imagines a lady of nobility traveling these roads in a palanquin. An olfactory journey,starting with deep woodsy musk, a wisp of frankincense and regal saffron that leads to an intersection of ripe figs, basmati milk, sweet bread and spiced tea. Warm and alluring, it becomes sweeter and deeper the longer it lingers on your skin.

Strawberry Swirl Cupcake (Another CLC Creation) *NEW* Kiss & Make Cupcakes Collection: If your favourite colour is pink and you love frills, twirls and sweetness, then pick this scent.

Strawberry jam fills the center and we top it off with a strawberry buttercream frosting sprinkled with crushed strawberry candy. The strawberry note we use in this blend is what makes this scent so darn mouthwatering. No fake, plasticky notes. Just the undeniable scent of luscious strawberries picked at its peak - sweet, a little tart and a whole lotta delicious.

Sunny Violets (Another CLC Creation): Here's an expected and grown-up twist on our favourite summer-time drink. Pink lemonade with floating watermelon chunks and wedges of orange, grapefruit and clementine is served chilled in a vanilla-sugar rimmed glass and decorated with violet petals. This blend never lists too far either way and defies the standard fruity-floral description. Casual and laidback, it strikes a perfect balance between bright citrus and sweet violet nectar.
