Highgrove Bouquet: A Most English Garden & A Return to The Roots ~ Fragrance Reviews ~ Fragrantica
Well, I can honestly say that Penhaligon's has been well and truly rehabilitated in my private view of the world. That's a real treat! With Constantinople, Petra, Sports Car Club, and now Highgrove Bouquet, we could already be seeing a trend. In the end, the Portraits Collection is something that can be forgotten like a dream - it's not that scary at all, but it evokes an awkward sort of feeling.
Chloé Rose Naturelle Intense: Peach Powder and Rose Jelly
Chloé has been an industry leader for committing to its "100% natural origin" strategy. As Sophie covered in her 2021 article, this doesn't mean synthetics can't be used. But it does indicate that the development teams will likely be including a greater ratio of full-spectrum natural oils to isolated synthetics than in the past, and, most importantly, it encourages perfumers to embark on a new challenge – making scents smell as natural as possible. This isn't as easy as is often assumed.
Diesel D: Pour Un Homme Spiked With Absinthe
There are two headline mistakes with Diesel's marketing for their latest scent D. Firstly, the fragrance is not nearly as simple and stripped-back as the three-note list suggests. Secondly, they've taken Pour Un Homme / Le Male's classic masculine template, tweaked it, and labelled it "gender-fluid", despite the profile having significant historical ties as well as current-day associative connections to stereotypically "XY" scent development.
Desert Suave Les Liquides Imaginaires: Holidays Are Coming
There are times when you just want to be in a fairy tale. Perhaps for someone the upcoming holidays can become that bright time of carefree joy, which many now are so lacking. Advent is already underway in many western countries. It is the period of preparations for Christmas, which according to the Gregorian calendar is celebrated on December 25.
Thomas de Monaco's New Perfume: Eau Coeur
In December of 2021, Sergey introduced to our readers the first fragrance by niche house Thomas de Monaco, named Raw Gold. We learned that photographer Thomas de Monaco grew up in the Swiss countryside and spends his time alternating between his photo studios in Paris and Zurich, creating great advertising photos and videos for brands like Hermès, Cartier, Armani, Hennessy, Vacheron Constantin, Hugo Boss, among others.
Pissara Umavijani talks about her new perfume and reveals some news
In the first week of November 2022 we learned about new fragrance La Rhapsodie Noire by Dusita Paris. Its creator, perfumer and brand owner Pissara Umavijani presented her new creation online by Zoom to the perfume community, and the online meeting record is available here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KnfC1qADcn8 We took the opportunity to ask Pissara some questions as well. SERGEY BORISOV: Congratulations upon your new perfume La Rhapsodie Noire! It's a great fragrance, and I like it.
Cannes TFWA 2022: Carven Dans Ma Bulle de Musc
The French house of Carven has just launched another chapter of their Dans Ma Bulle story. After the pillar fragrance Dans Ma Bulle (2018), followed by Dans Ma Bulle Eau de Toilette (2019), and Dans Ma Bulle de Fleurs (2020), now we are invited into the comfortable, cozy and warm Dans Ma Bulle de Musc. Fresh, soft and sparkling as only musk can be. Dans Ma Bulle de Musc is a floral-musky-woody composition, a form of gentle sensuality signed by perfumer Irene Farmachidi.
Gucci Gorgeous Jasmine: White Floral Milkshake With a Hint of Crunch
Feminine releases from Gucci over the past few years have made clear that the brand is trying to cultivate a unique signature of creamy white flowers. What they've achieved is actually quite impressive. With well-known, well-loved materials primarily used in near solinote form, it can be quite difficult to mould brand-defining character. How can you craft uniqueness and specificity with just lemon and bergamot, for example?
In Search of Relaxation with Fragrances
Few things are as crucial for the balance of our body and mind as achieving relaxation and peace with ourselves. I am a person who has struggled with Generalized Anxiety disorder since childhood, and in addition to that, I also have Borderline Personality disorder. For decades I used medications that left me with a feeling of profound numbness and a constant sense of emptiness.
XERJOFF Scented Candles: A Luxury Collection Of Seven Sophisticated Candles! ~ Scented Home & Garden ~ Fragrantica
The Italian luxury house XERJOFF finally enriched its offer with a sophisticated collection of candles in Limoges porcelain candle holders. Pre-premiere of the luxury candle line happened in Cannes during TFWA 2022, where it was showcased for the very first time to the selected public, who received it with much delight, both in terms of design and fragrance.
Carine Carine Roitfeld: Modern Midnight Poison
Harper's Bazaar Editor-in-Chief Carine Roitfeld launched her own fragrance, Carine, in March 2022. Oh, I remember how many comments there were on that article written by Sanja! How many opponents and defenders did Carine have! – but she just appeared on a poster for her fragrance, pulling up the edge of a purple jumper and showing a dark red bra (and the credits should go to the photographer, Max von Gumppenberg).
Armani Code Parfum: What's the Point?
Armani's newest Code, Code Parfum, really baffles me.
Three Elements By Bortnikoff: Sky, Earth and Fire
Fans of exotic artisanal perfumes know the name of Dmitry Bortnikoff firsthand: the perfumer is primarily known as the creator of compositions based on first-class agar tree oil, natural tinctures of ambergris and deer musk, as well as infusions of essential oils of exotic flowers into sandalwood oil. Fragrances by Bortnikoff Parfums smell dense, rich and natural.
Can Your Dog See Smells?
It's common knowledge that a dog's sense of smell is far better (in the sense of more sensitive, accurate, and insightful) than a human's. As a fragrance lover, have you ever wondered whether your dog would be able to detect far more from your favourite fragrance than you ever will? Like seeing in night vision or having eight hands, what does your dog feel and think when you put a blotter of Old Spice, Chanel, or Xerjoff under their toggling nose?
Guerlain Épices Exquises: The Newest Addition to Les Absolus d'Orient
Épices Exquises by Guerlain is the newest addition to the Oriental collection Les Absolus d'Orient by Guerlain for 2022. The oriental collection of the French house Guerlain, Les Absolus d'Orient, was presented in 2014 with the first fragrance, Santal Royal. Several creations followed: Bois Mysterieux, Cuir Intense, Encens Mythique, Ambre Eternel, Oud Essentiel, Musc Noble, and Patchouli Ardent from the years 2014 to 2021.
Xerjoff Sketchbook Collection: P.33 Parfum
The XERJOFF Sketchbook Collection is a new step for the Italian luxury house Xerjoff, offering a new line of fragrances made up of limited editions resulting from different projects that Sergio Momo kept locked in his desk drawer. The first fragrance for the Sketchbook is Page 33, which represents the transformation of an idea into a real product. The bottle of the newest Page 33 is entirely handmade by Tuscan artisans.
