• Smell Bent Otter Luvr Perfume Oil Review

  Date: 2011.11.30 | Category: fragrance | Response: 4

  

  I admit that I love otters. Who doesn’t? Why haven’t they been domesticated to be my little pets yet? Why? Anyways, Smell Bent Otter LUVr is a fragrance in the limited edition collection, North by Northwest, that is inspired by the Pacific Northwest.

  FYI – Otters are real. My guests from the Southeast come out and think that they are only little things that live at aquariums. On the island, you will see dead little ones by the road. They… Continue reading | 4 Comments

• Smell Bent Totem Eclipse Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.11.17 | Category: fragrance | Response: 2

  

  Totem Eclipse (of the heart) is a fragrance in the limited edition North by Northwest Collection by Smell Bent. This collection is inspired by the wonderful and wild Pacific Northwest.

  I hope you like cedar! Because Totem Eclipse opens as straight up lumberyard cedar. It’s planks and planks of astringent red cedar. And it wears as Lowes Home Improvement for a long time. It’s a mix of cedar planks and slightly damp beauty bark. After, seriously, like 2 hours, I get this fresh forest evergreen… Continue reading | 2 Comments

• DSH Perfumes Adoration Natural Perfume Review

  Adoration is in The Italian Splendor Collection, a collection of perfumes created by Dawn Spencer Hurwitz for the Denver Art Museum’s Cities of Splendor Exhibit. Adoration represents Milani is inspired by Bonifacio Bembo’s “Adoration of the Magi”. This fragrance is based on traditional Catholic incense and the gifts of the Magi. DSH included rose in this fragrance to represent Mary. Before I read about the inspiration and I had sampled Adoration, I thought, “This smells like the gifts of the Biblical Magi”. I find this “ancient” fragrance meditative. And it’s a good one for Christmas.

• Smell Bent SheWolf Perfume Oil Review

  Date: 2011.10.31 | Category: fragrance | Response: 0

  

  Happy Halloween!

  SheWolf is a limited edition perfume in Smell Bent’s North by Northwest Collection. This is the fall 2011 collection inspired by the ruggedness and awesomeness of the Pacific Northwest. It seems appropriate to post a review based on a female werewolf on Halloween. But, there’s nothing to be scared of with SheWolf unless you are terrified of patchouli.

  SheWolf opens as with a sweet vanilla musk. It’s like a “heftier” and “thicker” Coty Vanilla Musk. SheWolf is so sweet that… Continue reading

• Ineke Floral Curiosities Perfume Collection Review

  Date: 2011.10.06 | Category: fragrance | Response: 8

  

  Ineke Floral Curiosities is the latest collaboration between perfumer, Ineke Rühland, and lifestyle store, Anthropologie. You can find more info here. I hate to admit it, but I actually like Ineke Floral Curiosities better than the regular Ineke Alphabetical Series line up! I feel these 4 fragrances are broad and show Rühland’s range and her impeccability. This perfumer is a master of fruits and florals.

  Angel’s Trumpet – Opens as a refreshing whole orange with crushed leaves. The heady white florals come in and it… Continue reading | 8 Comments
