LORD’S JESTER ”Persephone extrait”: A Perfumista’s Dream Comes True!

Every perfumista I know has, at one time or another, wanted their “own perfume” or has “osmagined” the perfect perfume. I was lucky enough to receive such a perfume (inspired by my suggestions and blended flawlessly by the perfumer Adam Gottschalk of Lord’s Jester) this past March, as a birthday gift. My bespoke perfume was named after one of my favorite stories in Greek mythology, Persephone.

New Fragrance Review: Byredo Bullion – The Golden Glow of the Middle East + Sample Draw

Ben Gorham, the Founder and Creative Director of Byredo Parfums, envisioned his newest addition to the line as a true tribute to the Middle East, a part of the world he has visited frequently. I have never traveled to that part of the world, and might not in my lifetime, but if wearing Bullion takes me there, it’s a very fragrant place to visit.

Fragrance Review: Annick Goutal Nuit Etoilee “Post Impressionism Perfume”

As I was sniffing Nuit Etoilee, I came to think about fragrance names. How they belong in different groups to attract different audiences, how the name has to keep what it promises, and sometimes even live up to the expectations that it invariably sets. So has van Gogh’s painting got anything to do with how Goutal’s Nuit Etoilee smells?

Poetry and Perfume Review: Christina Georgina Rossetti and Caron N’Aimez Que Moi + Forget Me Not Draw

As Caron’s N’Aimez Que Moi unfolds the roses lose their machine oil edge that came after the initial sweetness I see a different story unfolding. The woman is not clutching a bouquet of forget-me-nots or putting her life on hold. She is opening the door to the great Unknown.

New Fragrance Review: Serge Lutens Santal Majuscule or Goldilocks and the Three Santals

In Santal Majuscule the cocoa is that dusty powdery smell of fine desiccated sweet. It dusts the heart of sandalwood in Santal Majuscule and then the typical Oriental beats of a Serge Lutens perfume arrive on the back of a Turkish rose. This is just a perfectly balanced sandalwood perfume.

MOR From Australia: “Affordable Luxuries from a Modern Apothecary” Fragrance Review

Australia has spawned many superb perfume Houses; a couple of years before the last millennium turned, two very visionary individuals (Dianna Burmas & Deon St. Mor) began MOR in a small shop in Melbourne. Their love of travel, art, fashion and food eventually resulted in their release of lines of aromatherapy products and fine fragrances. Their process of blending old time ingredients with modern technologies has promoted what they call “an awakening of the senses with an innovative twist” in the creation of each new product line.
