Henry Rose推出身体喷雾：Blonde Barry，Boys of Summer，& Mustang Sally ~ 新香水 ~ Fragrantica
2023年7月10日，Michelle Pfeiffer的香水品牌Henry Rose宣布推出三款全新的无酒精身体喷雾。这三款全新香水的灵感来源于Michelle对她在橘郡无忧无虑成长的夏天的怀念：Blonde Barry、Boys of Summer和Mustang Sally。 这三款新香水的调香师是IFF高级调香师Pascal Gaurin。 身体喷雾是品牌的新方向，也是品牌自2020年推出身体护理和家居香氛系列以来的首次系列扩张。 以下是每款新身体喷雾香水的详细信息，以及我在过去一周中对它们的个人感受。在此我要说明的是，对于身体喷雾而言，其持久性相当令人印象深刻。 在炎炎夏日，我使用后每款香水至少停留3-5个小时，但对所有香味的投射都非常非常贴心。 BLONDE BARRY 品牌将Blonde Barry描述为"多汁的黑醋栗花蕾和多汁的黑莓、血橙和油桃，包裹着感性的麝香和矿物木质气息，愉悦并诱惑着感官"。 调香师Pascal Gaurin在谈到Blonde...

Burberry推出了一款新香水：Goddess ~ 新香水
2023年7月1日，巴宝莉Burberry在其香水系列中迎来了一款新的女性香水。BURBERRY GODDESS被宣传为一款"美食芳香调”的气息，具有香草和一丝薰衣草的味道。 我为BURBERRY GODDESS设计的最初目标是在普遍使用香草的基础上进行扩展，提供一种新的丰富的嗅觉体验。为此，我使用了三种不同类型的香草萃取物。第一种是香草浸液，它可以提供最明亮、木质的香草味。然后我在香水中首次使用了Firgood™，也被称为"香草鱼子酱"。这种创新的新成分增加了甜美、丰富和动物性的香草。最后，香草净油的颜色更深、更丰富，增强了香水的神秘感和奶味。 ~Amandine Clerc-Marie，调香师 Burberry Goddess还标志着Burberry有史以来第一款可填充的香水，其瓶子拥有优雅的设计。外包装上的金色标签以巴宝莉的悠久传统为灵感，而以档案为灵感的瓶身则以金色奖章带来现代设计感。 香调 前调：香草和薰衣草 中调：香草鱼子酱 基调：香草净油...
Burberry Releases A New Fragrance: Goddess
On July 1st, 2023, Burberry welcomed a new women's fragrance into its range of fragrances. Advertised as a "gourmand aromatic," BURBERRY GODDESS features notes of vanilla and a smidgen of lavender.

For this purpose, I used three distinct types of vanilla extraction. The first is a Vanilla Infusion, which provides the brightest, woody vanilla possible.

LolitaLand Lolita Lempicka
Sweet but weird, medicinal, unpleasant. Unlike the beautiful La Belle, Fancy, Black Opium, Scandal by night, Pink Sugar or even Fantasy. Although there is a hint to apricot jam doughnuts rolled in powder sugar (yep, that's what I was hoping for), there is Also something very off in it, but can't say exactly what. There's too much lemon, orange or something, and the peach is unnatural. Also, it stains. I wish they stopped adding unnecessary chemical crap to color prrfumes Update: it's growing on me...
FRAGRANTICA Editors Favorite Perfumes of 2022
Another year marred by some ups and downs — some personal, some national, and some global. Luckily, the perfume launches this year were, in my humble opinion, quite stellar.

Nemat Vanilla Musk: Tidings of Comfort & Joy ~ Fragrance Reviews ~ Fragrantica
Do you want to smell like a cupcake? I do! Well, sometimes. Especially when I'm longing for comfort and security. Nothing makes me feel more comforted, calm, and secure than the scent of vanilla.... I know I'm not the only one here, people! I read the forum posts! Enter Nemat International's Vanilla Musk perfume oil, which has been around since 1991. It is simple and utterly charming.

Char by Henry Rose: A Review
Earlier in the month, we announced the new Henry Rose release: Char. I was intrigued to sample this tonka-based concoction. 'Til now, Queens & Monsters was my Henry Rose fragrance of choice, but since receiving Char, I fell hard for it and chose to wear it almost daily for a whole week! (Fellow perfumistas will understand the import of that statement.) The name recalls burnt toast...burnt marshmallows...burnt anything, really.
Imaginary Authors Is In Love With Everything!
If ever there was a fragrance for those who came of age in the '80s (otherwise known as — broadly — Gen-Xers), this is it! Mixed tapes! Roller skates! Feathered and sprayed hair! Boom boxes! Neon colors! Imaginary Authors has just released In Love With Everything! I am, I could be, and now I just need to try it! Its pyramid includes sweet and fruity notes of raspberry, citrus, punch, and coconut sugar grounded by sandalwood (and who wouldn't want a daily dose of stardust?), but I had to look...

EAUSO VERT: Impressions and Review
EAUSO VERT fragrances launched last month, as a new sustainable and transparent fragrance brand. Back them, I wrote, "The first five fragrances in the brand are inspired by a series of moments, films, music, and travel, and each fragrance cultivates a connection between ourselves and the world around us: Purple Noon, Vanilla Embers, Sintra, Joga, and Boozy Patchouli." Since then, I've spent some time wearing each one of the five several times and analyzing them.

A Review of Ellis Brooklyn's Vanilla Milk
Not having been impressed with much of Ellis Brooklyn's fragrance catalog to date, I did an immediate about-face when the release of Vanilla Milk was announced: Two types of vanilla?! *swoon* Come to mama! A lactonic milky accord? Tell me more! Frangipani? Oh, lay it on me! Cocoa extract? (Who cares that it's "upcycled"...what does that even mean?)...Give this chocolate addict her dose! A cozy, musky base of benzoin, amyris, and sandalwood?

Pistachio Notes in Perfumes
By request from the comments section of the previous sesame perfume article, this week I'd like to discuss the pistachio note in perfumery. Ever since I was a child digging into (most likely artificially colored and flavored) pistachio pudding, I have loved the smell and taste of these small, green nuts. I have also developed a taste for a good nutty note in a perfume composition; however, I've learned that my taste runs more toward the pistachio than the almond, for example.

A Review of the Marissa Zappas Redamance Collection
Fragrantica recently launched the news release of Marissa Zappas's new Redamance Collection.
