between the blog, freelancing and my day job at the literary agency, I’ve been pretty busy lately. It’s nothing like how busy those of you with young children or full-time class schedules are, but it’s still been enough to anxiety me out. To say I’ve been on edge for the past few months is probably the understatement of the year, so when I heard about two new wellness by clean perfumes ($76 each), both created to help women kick back and to feel rejuvenated, I had to try ’em out. They’re expensive, but so is therapy.
Clean claims that spritzing either eau de parfum, harmony or Purity, on your pressure points induces a sense of tranquility, like a spray-on day spa treatment.

Harmony:
Top notes — Italian lemon, eucalyptus, tea and dewberry
Middle notes — rose, jasmine, orange blossom
Base notes — cedar wood and musk
Saflık:
Top notes — bergamot, mandarin, tea and dewberry
Middle notes — rose, jasmine, muguet (Lily of the Valley), germanium
Base notes — cedar wood, sandalwood, leather and musk
I am impatient with fragrances. If the top notes — that is, the initial burst of fragrance — don’t hook me, I normally look elsewhere, but that’s not how it played out with either of these perfumes. Both scents had powerful top notes that almost overwhelmed my sensitive nose, but the subsequent middle and base notes a lot more than made up for the initial shock.
Initially, harmony smelled like a substantial basket of lemon rind strapped to my face, and Purity smelled like crushed mint leaves in my nostrils, but as soon as the dominant top notes mellowed out and transitioned into the milder middle and base notes, I began to feel some of the rejuvenating effect.
Harmony turned into a soft, powdery jasmine and rose floral fragrance; Purity morphed into a warmer floral with rose notes blending with musk and sandalwood.

I feel that Purity is the a lot more invigorating, rejuvenating fragrance of the two, while harmony is the a lot more soothing scent.

Last week I rotated using the scents, wearing harmony and Purity on alternating days. I certainly wouldn’t say the day spa industry has much to worry about from wellness by Clean, but I do feel that wearing these scents did help me make it through my days. Sure, it may have just been psychological, but I don’t care. If something helps minimize my anxiety level by even a little bit, that something is alright by me.
You can try either of the new wellness by clean fragrances at Sephora or Ulta stores nationwide, or buy them online.
