Pierre Aulas and Sonia Constant were the team to bring Swarovski Edition to life and their inspiration piece was the Swaovski Star Shadow clutch bag. Just like the clutch the perfumers made the middle of Edition the place where things get very intense and glittery as rose and gardenia provide the heartbeat. It is a subtly sparkly fruity floral with a great amount of style.
One of the things I appreciate most about perfumer Juan M. Perez is the way in which he seems to “capture” not only the scent of whatever it is he is framing, in a perfume, but the total feeling or complete olfactory experience that created it. If you have smelled any of Juan’s work you will not be surprised to know Magnolio de Verano, Waters of Aswan, and Gardenia Exuberante come alive.
Perfumer Ragna Rostad-Ruffner of Divine Life Perfume created her Dharma Rose fragrance “to assist you as you walk your path, speak your truth and live your dream …all from the deepest desires of your heart.” Dharma Rose is available in both perfume oil and eau de cologne. I tested both, and they are wonderful, with different personalities.
I think what Providence Perfume Company’s Charna Ethier set out to create was a modern vintage perfume which emulated the richness of Youth Dew while holding out a bit of the brightness of Divine and if that was the desire Divine Noir succeeds on both of those levels.
The sublime Dama Bianca is the seventh installment of the Xerjoff Casamorati collection. The mix of Dama Bianca the fragrance and Xerjoff’s description brings me back to my journey to Italy to visit my family.
The times are few where my chemistry geek side and my perfume geek side overlap. One of the places has been the existence of the Mane Jungle Essence technology. When I received the new Etat Libre d’Orange Dangerous Complicity the note list led off with three notes containing the JE initials and I thought this would be a good chance to see this in action.
