CONTEST CLOSED: Giveaway: Auric Blends Egyptian Goddess Perfume Oil

THIS CONTEST IS NOW CLOSED. PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ENTER.

It's no secret that I'm a huge Auric Blends fan. Their perfume oils are some of the most beautiful (and super budget-friendly) that I have ever used. You can see my past reviews here and here to give you an idea of how much I adore their products.

To commemorate the recent redesign of their most popular fragrance, Egyptian Goddess, I will be giving away a bottle (with the new design) to one lucky reader, compliments of Auric Blends!


One lucky reader will receive the newly-redesigned bottle of Egyptian Goddess Perfume Oil pictured above (1/3 oz roll-on bottle).

In case you have never experienced the beautiful fragrance of Auric Blends Egyptian Goddess, here's a snippet of my original review:

Arguably their most popular fragrance, the ladies on the MakeupAlley.com fragrance board have much love for this fragrance and I completely understand why. If you've tried other Egyptian-type musks in the past, let me assure you that this is the best of the genre. It's a white musk that is blended so expertly, I defy you to try and pick out the other notes. They all blend together so beautifully that what you're left with is a soft, clean scent that brings to mind warm, fluffy sweaters and clean skin. That's about the best description I can give you. For you non-perfume-wearers out there, I say give this fragrance a shot because it goes against any preconceived notion of what perfume smells like. Also, it's great to use to layer with other scents.

Please read all of the following rules before entering:

1) This giveaway begins today, March 18th, and will end Monday March 21st, 2011 at 11:59PM Pacific. I will select one winner via random.org and notify the winner on Tuesday, March 22nd. The winner will have 24 hours to respond. If the winner does not reply within 24 hours, he or she will forfeit the prizes and another winner will be selected. I will also announce the winner here on this blog, so if you do not receive my email, you can see if you have won by visiting my site on March 22nd.

2) Giveaway open to residents of US only, 18 and over. Void where prohibited.

3) You may earn up to three (3) entries per person. Please, for my sanity, leave ONE comment per person, which includes all details regarding your entries.

4) To earn one (1) entry, leave a comment on this post and answer the following question: What's your favorite Auric Blends fragrance? If you don't have one, visit the Auric Blends site and tell me which one you'd most like to try. You must leave your email address in your comment.

5) You may earn one (1) additional entry by being a follower of this blog via Google Friend Connect. I'll need to be able to verify this by clicking on your profile.

6) You may earn one (1) additional entry by retweeting the following message on Twitter:

Ambrosia sounds like a scent I'd love because of the black cherry and vanilla notes. It's the one I'd most like to try.

I haven't tried any of their perfumes, but I absolutely love their incense sticks! Sandalwood is hands down my favorite, and whenever I go grocery shopping at my local Whole Foods, I pick up a handful!

I can't decide on which scent I'd love to try, but Layla and Tara both seem like they'd smell really great! I'm going to keep an eye out for them next time I hit up Whole Foods!

Thanks for the giveaway, G!

My favorite perfume was discontinued and I have yet to replace it! The amber sounds perfect though the description says you can't describe what your smelling; that's exactly how my beloved perfume was! I love musky, amber, spicy, wood smells so I think that could be a decent fit...the Love one also sounds interesting, I wore Clean Cotton as a teen :)
