UA HAWAI'I WENA Glow Eau de Parfum Review
As previously noted, I recently discovered UA HAWAI'I fragrances, and I am smitten with their delectable Eau de Parfum scents. UA Hawaii's new Elements Collection features clean, luxury scents that are inspired by the natural elements found in Hawai'i. The fragrances are infused with sustainable botanicals and the ingredients are derived from natural Hawaiian plants or fruit oils.
UA Hawai'i Wena Eau de Parfum is a beautifully articulated, and grounding, fragrance that is best described as a gender-neutral woodsy amber with a bit of fruit and spice. It is a calming fragrance that creates a sense of wellbeing, and it is a pleasure to wear. The scent sits close tho the skin, and therefore doesn't announce your entry into a room, but instead is more subtle and indescribably beautiful.
Fragrance Notes:
- Top Notes: Coconut, Pamplemousse, Clove
- Mid Notes: Bergamot, Amber, Wild Cypress
- Base Notes: Cedar, Geranium, Eucalyptus

About Symbiome,
Symbiome was founded in 2017 by Larry Weiss. Larry has an M.D. from Stanford University Medical School and a B.S. from Cornell University in Biochemistry, as well as an extensive background and experience in natural product formulation. He says, " The name Symbiome reflects our deep respect for the complexity and beauty of ancient, living biological systems. It represents unity and connection between skin health, a thriving microbiome, and our intricate relationship with nature."
In addition to partnering with ACT, Larry says, "Symbiome is also a partner of the Yanomami Foundation, a nonprofit organization dedicated to the protection of the Amazon rainforest, advancing research in the human microbiome space and global health, and promoting intercultural programs that build resilience, self-determination, and sustainable lifestyles for the Yanomami, an indigenous people in the Amazon. Symbiome regularly donates to the Yanomami Foundation to support their quintessential mission."
I had a fascinating conversation with him about the skin microbiome (and whether and how it can be restored), fermented Amazonian botanicals, their recently published Nature paper, and more. I can't wait to share more about Symbiome with you.
Price of the box: $59.95. Retail value: $190.00 from Boxwalla (Affiliate Links).
