Querelle.
This masterwork- and I really perceive it as such- is an approach/ avoidance fragrance for many.
It seethes with complexity; if it were a color, it would be the darkest green imaginable, tinged with black.
Sunny, ebulliently good-natured- like a windblown child in a summer field, with nary a care in the world.
This is how I feel when I wear Liz Zorn’s Moroccan Orange edp.
Like Katrina and the Waves,
I’m walking on sunshine, and don’t it feel good.
A fragrance devoid of complacency and ordinary prettiness.
An extraordinary perfume for woman endowed with curves, great strength of character, and larger-than-life sensibilities and appetites.
Scandal started it all.
My pulse quickens today, just as it did over 50 years ago.
Sheryl Crow got it right:
“If it makes you happy-
It can’t be that bad…
If it makes you happy-
Why the hell are you so sad? “
So it is with DSH’s Kohl Gris.
Originally launched for the holiday season of 2009, this baby is timelessly decadent and sultry.
It would murmur “come hither” on any man or woman alive.
And it may be worn with impunity in any weather, it’s so subtle.
Liz Zorn is an iconoclastic wonder; by now, she is becoming more widely known and appreciated. I’m so glad…
I find Lizzie- and her work – to be a marvelous amalgam of tender and tough, sweet, sassy, and spicy.
Waterflower is one of my favorite parfums- spicy, earthy, floral, and intricately nuanced.
Profoundly spiritual, and deeply earthy.
According to Liz, she was inspired by her own lily pond and the transcendent philosophical aspects of the lotus blossom.
It was a true labor of love, and we can clearly sense that.
The last thing most of us need is to be nasally assaulted by Eau de Cheap Headshop Harvard Square, vintage 1972!
Migraine-inducing, monster-sillage, in-your-face hippie-dippy roll-on abomination.
For many, this is the only patchouli they’ve ever known; no wonder it has such a vile reputation…
Montale Patchouli Leaves is a fine choice for either men or women, perfectly suited for all seasons; it blooms in the heat, and comforts in chillier climates.
It is patch perfection, a Preciousssss that is affordable, even in these times.
