Imaginary Authors Perfumes – Scented Poetry & Prose
I’ve fallen in love with another violet perfume. I should start by telling you the lovely and charming story of the latest perfume line that has charmed me – Imaginary Authors.- which is a new perfume house founded by perfumer Josh Meyer. What Josh says: “Imaginary Authors is born from the concept of scent as art…
Creed Virgin Island Water Is A Sexy And Perfectly Beachy Perfume
Virgin Island Water is a gorgeous unisex scent from Creed that somehow manages to feel modern and classic at the same time. The citrus notes feel fresh and “eau de cologne” like but make no mistake, this is no watery boring citrus. Right off the top a soft yet subtle coconut note feels like the…
How To Get Rid Of That Perfume You Just Tried That Is Giving You A Headache
We all know that feeling. You’ve just found a lovely new perfume – you’ve spritzed a paper blotter with it, it smells good, you try it on your skin. Then, something happens. That perfume becomes a monster, slowly but surely turning into a headache (and possibly nausea) inducing disaster on your skin. You try washing…
Jane Birkin’s Perfume, Miller Harris Un Petit Rien & Santa Maria Novella Muschio Oro – Sexy Sultry Scents
As you know, I love musk scents. Clean musks, floral musks and woodsy musks – I love them all. Certain musks have the ability to morph and take on the chemistry of the wearer and become what I like to call a “skin scent”. This means the scent sits close to the skin and only…
Do You Remember Rose Milk Lotion? I Still Love It.
One of my favourite scent memories is Rose Milk body lotion. I used it as a teenager and just loved it. Turns out it is still being made and sold! I think a few drugstores in the US carry it, although I got mine from Amazon.com for under $10. It is nothing spectacular as far…

Fragrance of the Lemon Peel © Ilya Zomb Let us enjoy this excerpt from Pablo Neruda’s Ode To The Lemon: …he most intense liqueur of nature, unique, vivid, concentrated, born of the cool, fresh lemon, of its fragrant house, its acid, secret symmetry. I bet you already can smell lemon. You can feel your mouth…
Shall We See What I Have In My Purse Today?
I regularly change up the contents of the make up bag in my purse. I am still a huge fan of the leather pouches from American Apparel Carry All Pouch – they feel substantial and well made. I like the ones with nice heavy gold zippers, they add a luxe feel that you don’t get…
Guerlain Is One Of The Best Perfume Houses In The World. According To Me.
This isn’t a review, I’m just sharing my love and my collection with my fellow perfumistas. Some of them I’ve reviewed, some I haven’t. Some I still plan to, some I will never bother trying because such amazing reviews have already been written, and I have nothing to add. So here you go, enjoy!…
