Spirit of Luck by La Docle y Vito Limited

Spirit of Luck Herbal Parfum Unisex- A Whole Fragrance by La Dolce y Vito is a Healing Perfume that has made its entrance into "Sick Peachy Feel Better."  The unisex blend claims to relieve depression (We cannot verify this...no one on the Whom You Know panel experiences this condition.  We are too euphoric about all we test!) and increase esteem, and have an overall calming effect.  In Sick Peachy Feel Better we are on a quest to try new products that you may not have heard of to increase your options of getting on the road to recovery faster!


La Dolce y Vito is a Manhattan company located on West 57th Street, so we like that they are local!  


Spirit of Luck has top notes of mandarin oil, bergamot oil, lemon oil, basil oil, cedar leaf oil, petitgrain oil and anise oil.    Midnotes consist of geranium oil, jasmine, rose, lavandin oil, lily of the valley, sage clary oil with basenotes of lavandin absolute, patchouli oil, cedarwood oil, amber leather oakmoss, musk, vetiver Haitian oil and vanilla.  Here is what our panel thought:


"If you're one of those who lament that perfumes and fragrances have become so synthetic nowadays and you'd like to go back to a time when they were all natural and meant to be therapeutic and healing, then Whole Fragrance by La Dolce y Vito, Ltd. would be a line for you to look into.  This is how I imagine that ancient civilizations came about creating their perfumes too, to not just enjoy a pleasing fragrance but for it to lift their spirits and increase their physical and mental wellbeing.  Whole Fragrance is a line of natural and organic perfumes made with various high grade essential oils and the purest alcohol.  There are currently a dozen different blends of
fragrances in their repertoire, some with matching lotions too.  Half of the collection is actually unisex and within that set, Spirit of Luck is one such scent that would be enjoyed by both women and men alike.  It's a clean, invigorating fragrance with notes of lemon oil, sage clary oil, patchouli, musk and vanilla, which are normally pleasing to both genders.  It's natural, heady and quite potent.  And who out there can't use more luck, with Spirit of Luck, it'll definitely put you in the mood and mindframe to welcome some of that essence of luck into your life."



"Always eager to make a busy day in New York less stressful, I was happy to try Spirit of Luck Fragrance which claims to have special healing powers.  It is recommended to use the blend in untraditional areas of the body like the inner ankles, behind the knewss and over your belly button.   So, instead of spraying the scent on my chest, neck and writs as I usually do, I applied it to my earlobes, ankles and stomach.  With a musky smell and claims to fight depression and boost self esteem, I did notice that I was productive and met my goals with more ease than usual.  How much of that can be attributed to the cologne versus other external factors is yet to be determined.  I would have to do a case study and where it for a long period of time.  However, just by having the mindset that my worries would be eliminated and my day stress free, I was able to conquer  the day’s obstacles with a smile."   


"Spirit of Luck, by La Dolce Y Vito, Ltd. is a potent, powerful whole fragrance.  It is not tested on animals.  Spirit of Luck's fragrances linger on your body from the herbal parfum oils.  The intense fragrance is experienced because of the predominate aromas of mandarin oil, bergamot oil, lemon oil, basil oil, cedar leaf oil, petitgrain oil and anise oil.  Moderate notes of geranium oil, jasmine, rose, lavandin oil, lily of the valley and sage clary oil are infused into this whole fragrance.  While the lesser scents of lavandin absolute, patchouli oil, cedarwood oil, amber leather oakmoss, musk, vetiver Haitian oil, and vanilla compose the total experience called "Spirit of Luck".  You have to try this to experience the complete aromatics."



"Spirit of Luck....is a herbal unisex parfum, developed with natural fragrances to relieve depression and increase self esteem.  Not that things necessarily get me down, but I love to have little boosts in my life to keep my great spirits going.  It is recommended to spray this on your inner ankles, behind the knees, over your belly and behind your ear lobe.....I would add it is great to spray on your pillow!!  You will feel very refreshed and exhilarated when you awake in the morning.  The top note for me in anise, followed by beautiful jasmine and rose.....the cedarwood and vanilla finish the notes off beautifully.  Although not a scent I would think of wearing daily, it really made me feel like I was having a spa day....totally relaxed me from head to toe.  Knowing it is made of natural ingredients makes you feel even fresher throughout the day."
