On Riyallure Fragrances

At the end of the day, your audience is your audience. I stumbled upon Riyallure video on Tiktok and I don't know, something called to me immediately. It's almost as if I was on auto-movement or arrested by the Holy spirit, but I placed my order with immediate alacrity. So I got some samples first so I can know my favourites and they all exceeded my expectations.

So Serenity - It's a sweet feminine welcoming scent. It reminds me a bit of Hundred Silent ways by Nishane. I think it's the mandarin and Jasmine in both notes but that's where the similarity ends. Serenity is sweeter (definitely the honey in it) but not too sweet that it smells like saccharine. 

Elegance has you feeling like "YOU ARE HER." Like a confident young lady who knows how to take care of herself, look and smell good. The scent is how you'd imagine Arab women with their precise grooming would smell and I believe this is coming primarily from the Musk notes. It is giving siren exuding pheromones and the orange and vanilla notes makes it a tad sweet but not too sweet that it's too fruity.

The other one is Mindful. If you love Kayali's Yum Pistachio Gum and Lattafa's Khair Pistachio, you'll love this. Now, the pistachio in this isn't as prominent as you would find in the aforementioned perfumes but it's still noticeable. It still gives off that same cozy feeling of licking ice-cream and cake icing, but I believe it's the Bergamot, Jasmine and Sandalwood notes make it more balanced than the full blown candy-ness in primarily Pistachio perfumes.

Dreamy Delight is for the vanilla and milk lovers. Now normally, I'm not a huge vanilla girl and even much less a milk fragrance girl. Frankly, I didn't quite like Lattafa's Eclaire (cos the milk is too cloying for me), and Beguile by Oma Blush Bloom & Lattafa's Nebras (cos the vanilla is quite too much in your nose). However, the combination of both notes in this? I didn't know they could work together but they just work. You can smell the vanilla in this, but it's subtle and not overpowering. Same goes for the milk. I believe it's the coconut notes that balance out the strong vanilla and milkiness that you'd find in the other lactonic perfumes.

Enchanted smells more unisex than feminine to me. Now, I don't like Oud at all (even with the sweetness Beguile by Oma added to the Sweet Oud fragrance, it just wasn't for me). However, Enchanted comes in with the oud but the Musk in this fragrance dilutes the strong notes you'd find in primary Oud fragrances. I have a thick creamy Musk Tahara oil so believe me when I say the Musk profile in this makes this Oud very very very welcoming.

These are the ones I've smelt and I love all of them. Maybe, I love the first two more than the others. She has other scents though, but I haven't been able to smell those yet. The longevity is super great, they are EDP scents. I could still smell them on my skin 8 hours after the initial spray. So if you're on a budget, you should patronise her and you should definitely screenshot this review for future buys for your preferred scent profiles.

I honestly am rooting for the brand. I pray for investors and grants so it can continue on a large scale. Like up to the level of niche perfume brands like Nishane, MFK, Pafum de Marly and the likes. That's how much I believe in this. These are really amazing. Like really really phenomenal. Checkout Riyallure fragrances here -

Be awake

 While you're yet to discover your passion/purpose in future, can you just learn simple handy skills to have (just in case)... I know we've said since time immemorial not to pressure anyone or to rest from lockdown, but going with the state of this country, it's of utmost importance that you awake from your slumber. The time for sleeping is gone - over. You should be wide awake by now. This country is a mess... We are on our own. So as you're yet to discover the passion/purpose you should have, try and learn something significant. Learn Google and MS suites - at least even if you no learn anything to do now. Many Undergraduates cannot even navigate as little as MS Word. They don't know what index is, Text alignment, Pagination, etc... Not to talk of the other suites. In my case, I mastered Google docs when my friend (in another location) asked me to create play drama.  Prior to then, I didn't know you can edit and review comments in the application. And that was...

On building JavaScript without help - 1

I know, I have not garnered the expertise YET That I'm very much, still a beginner in web development But it doesn't make me feel any less sad. Because when I follow along tutorials, I grasp what the instructor is doing. And I code along with them However, when push comes to shove (as it did this afternoon, I'm stuck) However, I'm not going to beat myself up, cos I actually succeeded in creating a toggle on the DOM And I'd been wrapping my head around how I did those.  Of course, I know this is a progress, and I tried. And I created something without following along instructions. I'm just recording this here, so I'd reminisce over how I'd felt. At how "slow" I'd felt at this point, this day. I still have a long way to go. But I console myself with the fact that 5 months ago, I didn't know what the hell "a variable" was I was unable to link my stylesheet cos I didn't know how to add a folder A month ago, I didn't know h...

Notions (Today)

Today was something else. Tiring but well spent. (8/8/2019) My first class by 7, and we ran to Political science Dept as it was raining. I didn't really stay through the lectures, it was occupied. I took some shots cos I felt I was dressing cool and all. From there, I went back to the department and my friends and I decided to go to the market to measure the clothes my friends and I would wear for our departmental night. On reaching to the market, to the shop where we could buy materials. Ifechukwu and I bargained for the price. I surprised myself the more with how vocal I was about selection of the material to wear and the bargaining. From there, we got to the place where we measured the clothes, we received biscuits from the people on the line as one was celebrating birthday. It was there I learnt my cloth size as I hadn't measured in a while. We were en route coming back and Ifechukwu saw a place where "bell" was open. She saw an opportunity to buy cloth she w...
