Editor’s Note: Stéphanie Bakouche was interviewed by former Contributor Megan Paki of Megan in Saint Maxime here, by me here and Luca Maffei was one of the first to be featured in our Young Perfumer’s Series here. –Michelyn Camen, Editor-in-Chief
Oh Luca Maffei! Thanks to this site I got to try Le Sixieme parfum and all I can say is that it’s unlike anything I currently have. While I can’t smell the crayola note, the iris in it was truly delightful to my nose. I’ll try to get a sample of that when its out.
All three sounds great but Bella Donna and Mon Seul Desir appealing more. Sadly the price tag is terrifying.
I would live to try Mon Seul Desir, it sounds like my kind of perfume!
I can’t wait to hear the reviews!
Bella Donna sounds great!
They all sound gorgeous. I wish this brand were more widely distributed in the US.
