Smells
I've been learning lots about perfumes, trying a new sample every day, really enjoying it.
I'm documenting things on a blog: Perfume Log.
My favourite is still Monsieur, which I got for a birthday present a few years ago. As a more casual alternative I like Wood Infusion.
I'm trying to find a fresh Summer smell, trying lots of things with citruses and fig leaves.
Would also like to find a favourite musky smell, as I generally like those.
I also like wearing sweet, pink, powdery smells at home at night. I like Powdered Veil and Divin'Enfant, but am still looking for others
Strawberry Shortcake
Had the inspiration to look for Strawberry Shortcake smelling things, these're some notes:
Shops
- Lore loreperfumery.com.au
- Libertine libertineparfumerie.com.au
- Mecca mecca.com
- City Perfume cityperfume.com.au - Sydney.
Media
- Fragrance Through The Decades - Talk by perfumer Roja Dove.
- The path to master perfumer: he risked everything to follow his dream of becoming a ‘nez' - Silly name, but a good half-hour doco following a refugee from Syria as he studies perfumery in France.
- Perfume: Something Old, Something New Bottling the Memory The Smell Of The Future - Three-part doco from the BBC. There's this bit where a guy's trying to find an empty spot to try a new perfume like he's trying to find a vein.
- The Nose: Searching for Blamage - Doco about Perfumer Alessandro Gualtieri (Orto Parisi, Nasomatto). Excuse the Bitchute link, but it's the only play I could find it for free. If you want better quality you can rent or buy it on Vimeo.
