On Solid Ground – Aftelier Wildflowers Solid Perfume
I never quite saw the point of solid perfumes. I enjoy the sensation of spraying perfume, even dabbing doesn’t really do it for me. I like to drench myself in a fragrant mist of perfume since it feels so luxurious … Continue reading

Fits Like A Glove – Review: Teo Cabanel Alahine
I want to squeeze in a review of Alahine before the cold season is behind us, since it is a great oriental, perfect for cold days, though it would be too much, at least for me, in warmer weather. But … Continue reading

Into The Blue – Review: Guerlain L’Heure Bleue
I actually never expected to particularly like the old Guerlains. Of course I wanted to try them, own them even, because I think a collection should have such important “founding fathers” of perfumes present and accounted for. Like Shakespeare belongs … Continue reading

Conversion – Review: Puredistance M
Initially I was not terribly interested in Puredistance’s third perfume, a release clearly geared towards men. Created by Roja Dove in 2010, the fragrance comes in a matte grey flacon that evokes metal, its box is black and grey, it … Continue reading

Purple Silk – Review: Ormonde Jayne Orris Noir
I own the Ormonde Jayne discovery set for years now (highly recommended btw!) and so far this has led me to aquiring Tolu in many incarnations, perfume, bath oil, candles. I did my best to ignore the rest of the set … Continue reading

Lady Of The Roses – Review: Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle Portrait Of A Lady

Hyperglycemia – Review: By Kilian Back To Black + Giveaway!
I received the By Kilian Discovery Set for Christmas, and as grateful as I am, as bummed I also am, since I am having a hard time with these perfumes. Why, you ask? Well, I can´t seem to find one … Continue reading

Can There Be More Than One Queen? – Shalimar Comparison
I recently received samples of various vintage concentrations of one of my favorite perfumes – Shalimar. Danielle took pity on me, to stop my lamenting that I would never, ever get my hands on vintage Shalimar, which practically rendered my … Continue reading

Love and The Carpet – Review: Amouage Epic Woman
I admire Amouage. It looks so exotic, so expensive and incredibly luxurious. Until recently I was just fine going on admiring Amouage from afar. Which was a near perfect solution for my pocket book as well as my phantasy life, … Continue reading
Heaven Scent – Review: Caron Parfum Sacré
Parfum Sacré by Caron makes winter livable. Ever since I am a perfume aficionado (phew, thank Goodness, I thought of a word in time: freak, nerd, addict and many more came to mind first ;)) I love the cold, the snow, the … Continue reading
