leenabug Posted November 23, 2008 Share Posted November 23, 2008 My hubby loves the smell (as do I ) of the Vivacious Body Cream that is sold by Arbonne. It costs $20 per 7oz. jar, so with the way things are going , I thought I would try to make me something similiar, seeing as how I would be afraid to buy another jar. I make candles, not body cream, but I have never smelled anything close to that. Anyone know what I am talking about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted November 24, 2008 Share Posted November 24, 2008 I found this description of it from the Arbonne site, if that helps anybody with suggestions:Lively notes of coconut, pineapple, passion fruit and guava create an irresistible fragrance that's sure to draw an entourage.

leenabug Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 Those ingrediants sound like something maybe Carribean? Or is that more of a fruit cocktail type of smell? The coconut is not strong, maybe the pineapple is the prevailing scent.......Anyone know of something close I could atleast try? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leenabug Posted November 27, 2008 Author Share Posted November 27, 2008 BY the way, my plan was to buy some of KY's soy whipped body cream and just add the scent to that. From what I understand the cream is ready to use when you get it? correct? and I just add the fo to get the scent I want? am I on the right page?

It should say on the jug. :smiley2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darbla Posted November 27, 2008 Share Posted November 27, 2008 I put some of those scents from the description in Fragrance Oil Finder and this is what it came up with:http://www.fragranceoilfinder.com/catalog/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=coconut+guava+pineapple&search_in_description=1&categories_id=&inc_subcat=1&manufacturers_id=&x=38&y=9Those don't seem to be exactly like you're looking for, but I bet you could blend up something close.

leisa2003 Posted November 28, 2008 Share Posted November 28, 2008 I make a "type" of vivacious for some of my soaps,... I add coconut, guava, passionfruit and pineapple. I use in this order and mix 50/50 of all, but alittle less of pineapple.I'd like to find a fragrance that has all this in one.:highfive: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
