• Boucheron B de Boucheron EDP Perfume Review

  Date: 2012.01.21 | Category: fragrance | Response: 0

  

  I would say that B by Boucheron is the least talked about fragrance by Boucheron and it is the most recent Boucheron perfume launch (2008).  I really enjoy Jaïpur for men and for women. The original feminine Boucheron was lovely before it was reformulated. And I didn’t mind Trouble. I find it odd that B de Boucheron is so unpopular but at the same time it is something that I’d never wear.

  B opens as zesty pink peppercorns with florals peeking through. Strangely, you notice… Continue reading

• Ormonde Jayne Tolu EDP Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.12.27 | Category: fragrance | Response: 10

  

  When the weather gets cold, I often find comfort in incense and amber fragrances. Most of the amber fragrances in my collection are heavy, linear “exotics”. I love for my fragrances to be olfactory versions of Orientalist, John Frederick Lewis paintings. I thought I was fine with my current collection of thick resinous, spicy amber scents and then I tried Ormonde Jayne Tolu.

  Tolu is refined. Tolu is a modern sweet resinous scent. It doesn’t attempt to recreate 19th century spice routes… Continue reading | 10 Comments

• Serge Lutens Chergui EDP Perfume Video Review

  Date: 2011.10.01 | Category: fragrance, video reviews | Response: 10

  Sometimes a review is so difficult to write because all  you want to say is “this smells good”. Chergui is one of those fragrances. It smells so good. It’s the type of scent that if I smelled it on somebody I would have to ask what they are wearing.

  

  Chergui opens musky and sweet with an animalic honey and pastoral hay. I get a blonde tobacco that is sweet and warm. This tobacco reminds me of being in a very nice, sophisticated tobacco… Continue reading | 10 Comments

• Boyfriend EDP Perfume Review

  Date: 2011.03.14 | Category: fragrance | Response: 9

  

  Boyfriend is a fragrance by actress Kate Walsh. I had an opportunity to interview Kate Walsh about Boyfriend. There’s more information of the inspiration of this fragrance in that post. This is my review.

  After wearing Boyfriend a few more times, I’ve decided that I really love it. At first I was wary. Does the world need another patchouli vanilla even if it is pleasant? Does the world need another fragrance gender neutral woodsy amber? Well, I could argue yes or… Continue reading | 9 Comments
