Amanda's Edit: Embracing Summer's Golden Moments with Elia Parfum
Happy 4th Weekend! Let July ignite something beautiful within you.
Summer has a way of awakening our senses, and July stands as the crown jewel of the season. As we celebrate Independence Day weekend, there's something magical about this time of year that calls us to embrace life's most beautiful moments. From sun-soaked beach days to intimate gatherings under starlit skies, July offers endless opportunities to create lasting memories while enveloped in the perfect summer fragrance.
The Art of Summer Living: Finding Joy in Simple Pleasures
"July always has a way of igniting something in me. Maybe it's the crackle of fireworks or the way summer offers so many moments to make beautiful memories," shares Amanda, founder of Elia Parfum. This sentiment perfectly captures the essence of what makes summer so special; it's not just about the destination, but about being fully present in each moment.
Whether you're planning sophisticated soirées or keeping things beautifully simple with backyard BBQs, July reminds us that the most meaningful experiences often come from being surrounded by loved ones. The gentle hum of conversation, children's laughter echoing through warm evening air, and the luxury of time moving a little slower, these are the moments that truly matter.
Luxury Travel and Summer Adventures: Mexico Bound
This month brings exciting adventures on the horizon. Amanda's upcoming trip to Mexico for a prestigious Hilton event promises to be extraordinary, featuring warm nights filled with soulful conversations and music that moves the soul. With Diplo set to perform, it's the kind of experience that embodies the perfect blend of luxury travel and authentic connection.
"I'm imagining warm nights, soulful conversations, and music that moves us," Amanda reflects. "It's the kind of experience that reminds me to stay joyous, curious, and connected." These moments of anticipation and adventure are what make summer truly unforgettable.

This luxurious body oil, with its citrusy brightness and silky hydration, captures everything that feels like summer in a bottle.

Creating Memorable Summer Moments
Summer entertaining doesn't need to be complicated to be extraordinary. Some of the most soul-filling moments come from simple pleasures: friends gathering around a perfectly set table, the gentle sparkle of celebration lights, and the warmth of genuine connection. These intimate moments, whether at home or during luxurious getaways, create the foundation for lasting memories.
The key to perfect summer entertaining lies in the details, from the scent that greets your guests to the carefully chosen accessories that elevate every moment. When you feel confident and beautifully scented, that energy radiates to everyone around you.
The Philosophy of Summer Beauty
"At home, we've been keeping it simple...BBQs with friends and family, kids running around, music low in the background, everyone lingering a little longer than planned," Amanda shares. "Nothing fancy, but those are the moments that really refill my soul. A good reminder that feeling 'lit up' doesn't always come from big plans, but that it's often just being surrounded by your people, fully there."
This philosophy extends to how we approach summer beauty and fragrance. The best summer scents are those that enhance natural moments rather than overwhelming them, fragrances that feel like a second skin, elevating your confidence while remaining authentically you.
Summer Self-Care: Rituals That Ground and Inspire
In the heat of summer, self-care becomes even more important. The ritual of applying luxurious body oil isn't just about skincare; it's about taking a moment to connect with yourself, to appreciate your body, and to prepare for the day ahead with intention and grace.
The Amalfi collection offers the perfect foundation for summer self-care rituals. Whether you're preparing for a day at the beach or an evening celebration, these products help you feel grounded, nourished, and beautifully scented.
