Tiiya Alanoud Alattiya - Rose Oud Epiphany Eau de Parfum

Every so often you smell a perfume that transports you to another time or place. At The Amazing Blog we instantly felt transported to exotic Arabian nights after closing our eyes and a little spritz of Tiiya Alanoud Alattiya’s RoseOud Epiphany Eau De Parfum and we relished every fragrant moment.

The founder Alanoud Alattiya is a graduate from the UCL Museum and Gallery Practice Masters program. By day she is a museum practitioner and by evenings a couturier. She grew up in a household fully immersed in couture, with her mother being one of the first women to wear Christian Dior in the Arabian Gulf. it was just a decade ago, that her career in couture designing amongst members of elite society was frowned upon. However, her first cousin, His Highness The Father Amir, Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani built a platform of newer social meaning and understanding, allowing her creativity to be celebrated.

Regular reader will remember that we recently wrote about her Concentrated Eye Cream here, but today we wanted to tell you about her Epiphany Rose Oud Eau de Parfum. After applying a spritz of this perfume, we immediately felt the warmth and essence of the luxurious Persian Gulf. The Arabic oud’s woody deep scent mixes with the sweet floral notes of rose oil to create an elegant fragrance. Oud oil is estimated as being worth 1.5 times the amount of gold. This ‘liquid gold’ gives the Rose Oud Epiphany perfume a complex aroma and mythical essence of the East. Trust us when we say that with the Epiphany perfume, a little goes a long way. It lingered on the skin all day and then some. If you too want to smell like luxury, the Tiiya Alanoud Alattiya Rose Oud Epiphany Eau de Parfum 100ml can be your too, if you purchased here for £120.

Cocoon, Rose oil, Oud oil, Eveil and Gentle Argan scrub - Bleu D'Argan

 

Skin reacts to weather constantly and a change of season can really affect our skin, when summer leaves and winter commences our skin can the first to be affected by the change. At The Amazing Blog we understand the importance of keeping our skin moisturised and using the right products, this is where we’ve discovered Bleu d’argan.

Bleu d’argan specialises in hair and body products and always uses 100% original and authentic Argan oil which is directly imported from Morocco.  We received 5 great products from their range including Cocoon, Body Sense & Oud body oils, facial cleansing scrub and Eveil.

If your skin has been neglected and has left you feeling stressed then the Cocoon anti-aging cream is the perfect daily moisturiser to add to your daily skincare regime. This face cream is a rich and creamy, yet has a lightweight feel, it’s enriched with Argan oil with nourishing benefits. If this moisturiser isn’t enough to keep your skin hydrated then you can try the Face Sense Oil. Only a couple of drops is needed, we recommend using at night time before bed to re-hydrate after a long day. If a real pamper evening is on the cards then the Clean, Gentle Argan scrub is perfect, it can be used all over to wash away dead or dry skin to tone and brighten skin. Follow this by using  one of the body sense oils, we loved Rose and Oud, there is also Fleur, Zest, and Body sense. They’re suitable for all skin types including sensitive and fragile skin; and the formula has pure organic oil whilst being paraben free. This body oil is light on your skin and absorbs straight away, leaving your skin soft and silky and protects to your skin against dryness of the season. Named Eveil, the last product is infused with rose and has a lovely floral fragrance, use this throughout the day to regularly refresh your face.
