  “When you want to feel inspired and motivated to pursue your wildest dreams. Wear it, Be Earnest!” from the brand

 How many of us have all heard the term it’s all in a name?  Well, in the case of Be Earnest, we are given a reason and some motivation to be precisely that. To be earnest means to be willing to live your life with energy and to do it seriously, fiercely, with both intention and effort. It aligns with the teachings of Confucius, who believed that practicing five things under all circumstances constitutes perfect virtue: gravity, generosity of soul, sincerity, earnestness, and kindness. Embracing each day with passion and purpose sets us up for success. By approaching life with a positive attitude and a zest for living, we can experience greater joy. If we are energized and enthusiastic, we are more likely to pursue our dreams, overcome challenges, and make the most of every opportunity that comes our way.

 The special blend of top notes is a refreshing and tangy opening that will pique your interest. It provides a vibrant and refreshing scent that can help you feel more energized and motivated, ready to tackle the day with vigor. This unique blend is what sets Be Earnest apart and makes it a must-have for anyone seeking a fragrance that stands out.

Be Earnest is not just a fragrance; it’s a poignant ode to living with intention, grace, and purpose. Its blend of top notes, led by rhubarb and apple, resonates with a refreshingly invigorating quality. The initial spark is a sour and aromatic fruitiness that energizes the senses. The tang of rhubarb blends harmoniously with the crispness of the apple, providing the perfect invigorating elixir to energize and motivate you to tackle the day with vigor. And the best part? The fragrance is not just invigorating; it’s long-lasting, ensuring you stay inspired and motivated throughout the day and giving you the confidence to take on any challenge, knowing that your scent will last.

 Rosy & Earnest Be Earnest evolves on my skin, the initial burst of the opening notes settles into a delicate yet lively floral accord that resonates deeply within, incorporating the essence of blooming flowers. This intricate blend of notes creates a harmonious balance of scents that brings a sense of grounding and balance to the senses, allowing you to navigate life with a renewed sense of clarity and purpose. Its comforting embrace reminds you to stay true to yourself, to remain steadfast in your convictions, and to approach each moment with authenticity.

 As the perfume continues to unfold, it journeys into a distinguished, sophisticated elegance with the union of fir, cedarwood, and musk that transcends mere scents to evoke a sense of timeless elegance and refinement. The flawless equilibrium of sweetness and dryness creates a harmonious composition of notes, complemented by soft, powdery undertones that radiate confidence and sophistication. This transformative development evokes a refinement that resonates with a heartfelt sense of confidence and inner strength. With each inhalation, the scent can induce you with poise and grace that transcends the physical realm. It becomes more than just a perfume; it becomes a part of your essence, a statement of who you are, a confident, refined individual ready to take on the world with grace and charm. It is a reminder that true beauty lies not only in the outward appearance but also in the inner strength and grace that radiates from within.
