Pele Hair Gloss

[puck_nc]

Whimsical, temperamental, radiant and ravishingly beautiful Goddess of Volcanoes, Fire, Lightning and Dance. She is the Mother of Eruptions and the personification of destructive power. Volcanic eruptions are said to be a side-effect of her jealous rages and her epic quarrels with her siblings are legendary. This perfume embodies her gentler, benign aspect as the capricious Goddess of Dance: muguet and Hawaiian white ginger enveloped by warm, damp tropical blooms.

Origin: Straight from the Post

Initial Thoughts: I love Pele the scent, but the perfume fades on me so fast that I never bothered to get a bottle. I was eager to try other forms in hopes of getting it to last.

In the Bottle: Rich and warm tropical flowers, creamy and smooth.

In the Hair: The bath oil on my skin brought out the ginger without it taking over. In my hair the ginger is staying very, very quiet. I am not at all displeased by this.

Verdict: If you've been looking for a hair gloss that is subtle enough to use at work, this is one possibility. If a lot of florals cause you problems (rose, jasmine, etc.) but you like the idea of florals, give this a try.

I wasn't super crazy about Pele as a perfume. It's a big lush tropical perfume blend.

 

The hairgloss is another beast.

 

It's a subtle, slightly tropical, blast of ginger, florals. It's clean, lush, and totally smells like salon hair.

 

The best word to sum this up: FANCY.

 

ETA: Also, FANCY BEACH HAIR. This is what hair smells like in music videos/films where you're running through a white sandy beach, pristine blue water, and the sun is shining. Work it, you beach goddess you.

I think this is my second favorite hair gloss, at least for summer. I layer it with Pele the perfume and end up smelling like a tropical garden. The hair gloss, as mentioned above, is more subtle than the perfume oil in my hair. If I wear it alone after a shower, it's JUST the right amount of scent.
