Pert Plus Shampoo with Henna Extracts for Stronger Hair Review

Annually, our cousin would gift us with a balikbayan box full of stuff - bags, perfumes, teas, treats and beauty and household products. Among the recent loot was a large bottle of Pert Plus Shampoo with Henna Extracts for Stronger Hair. I tried it for a month before it took permanent-until-empty residence in my sissy's (who's concerned about hair-fall) bathroom.

Kalachuchi and Fruity Blooms Frangipani and Brown Sugar Body Mist

Victoria's Secret  Love Spell Midnight. That was what I thought the first time I took a whiff of Fruity Blooms Frangipani and Brown Sugar Body Mist. The former was my aunt's signature scent for so long. She especially wears it when she hears mass. I think it's the floral note. VS Love Spell Midnight is hypnotic blossoms and vanilla. I've always wondered what hypnotic blossoms are. The flower on the VS Love Spell Midnight bottle looks like Blue Paradise which I don't know the smell of. I don't know the smell of frangipani either. 

Tupperware Fruity Blooms Body Mist

See, frangipani is known as kalachuchi in the Philippines. When I was a kid I was told it was a flower for the dead, bulaklak ng patay. Too scared, I stayed away from it even if a tree produces a lot of blooms. I didn't bother asking why it is regarded as such.
