  Mainstream Monday – Sniffing a Popular Perfume

  I’ve always admired the genre of green fragrances but they used to intimidate them. They were sharp, crisp and I always imagined they carry a small clutch and have a really organized desk. You see, I didn’t relate to green perfume. They weren’t “me”. I’m scatterbrained, carry a big bag and have the world’s messiest desk. After being into perfume for over 10 years, green perfumes have grown on me as my experiences have broadened. Chanel Cristalle EDP was my gateway green.

  Cristalle opens with bitter galbanum and tart peach. I also get… Continue reading | 13 Comments

• Opus Oils Birthday Bash & A Fragrance Freebie!

  Collaboration is essential to the world of perfume. Without muses, we wouldn’t have half of the classics we still wear today.

  I’m usually very predictable and traditional when it comes to spring. I like the florals. I really, really like the “purple” florals like violet, lilac, hyacinth and iris. This isn’t my personal list of “most worn for Spring 2012″, these are my pics of perfumes that I think are pretty for spring. And because I’m so… Continue reading | 15 Comments

• Penhaligon’s Peoneve EDP Perfume Video Review

  Date: 2013.04.13 | Category: fragrance, video reviews | Response: 6

  

  I’m not usually a fan of soliflores as many are boring. I hestitated trying Penhaligon’s Peoneve due to the lackluster backstory and the fact that every peony perfume I try leaves me with a headache (as well as smelling peony flowers). After trying Peoneve I was taken back. This is one gorgeous lush “pink” floral.

  Peoneve opens a big ‘ole floral with a big ‘ole helping of jasmine. Peoneve is heady and pretty but it does have a bit of an animalic funk (probably a… Continue reading | 6 Comments
