Reflexions

I read so much quality & new information that the slightest intention of writing a single sentence stresses me as much as final exam.
This should not be. Probable no one ever reads my tentative blabbering anyway. Oh yes, I now. My bosses. There are agency paid for that. To see what has to say when the back of guys at the office is turned. Actually I do not care.

I have made many experiences since the MORROCO flacon. I have know more than I can use in a week, many are vintage but i am still too much inexperienced to even pretend to say if the juice is bruised or intact. But my love grows, oh yes it does.
I found Shalimar in its 30 years or more composition; i use it respectfully. I dress with special clothes. I find synthesised clothes does not fit with perfume, cotton neighter.
The intention in perfumes, might it be its conception or wearing it goes way beyond the creation itself. How could we even forget the sacred aspect of the invisible part of ourselves so much!
Serge Lutens is a very good alchimist i find. I am an unpatient apprentice but i will learn.

Of trial and error of a debutante in the flower fields

I am confused and disapointed.
I have received my Saravel's MOROCCO but not satisfied at all by the juice.
And to add insult to injury I have found and old decision of the US Federal Court about a case involving Saravel's perfume WHITE CHRISTMAS. I will add the article when I will find a way to copy and paste without any glitches.
More later.

Of Angels



I find the eyes quite stunning...if not creepy.

I bought 60 minis Edt , Edp for a reasonnably price. I can't identify the notes of ANGEL'S BREATH, but one thing it reminds me slightly of FA eau de cologne, a scent from the 80's.
Anyone knows this one??

My passion for scents and perfume grows stronger every day.
I bought 2 vintages, I will disclose all the information as soon as I will receive the boxes. I am extremely excited.
I won a FILLES EN AIGUILLES sample too !! Many thanx again PERFUMESHRINE for your kindness.
The world of scents unfolds behind me and reveals its bounty and generosity. I always found i was sensitive to smell, finding details where my friends & family would seem indifferent. Today in this community from all over the planet I find kinship. It is very .... pleasing.

I remember my first bottle of perfume i received, from a distant relative while I was still a teen. Diorissimo. This started a like for scent i never fully experienced until recently.
After the lilly of the valley, came another present, CHANEL No 5 , Opium from my first boyfriend, 1990 version of Coriandre, the Coty Lilly of the Valley i can't find anymore. Oh I had my patchouli period too. Now I'm a Madame. At least it is what the young ladies and lads call me when at the grocery. It was time I know my self better and explore the world of scents some more.
In here, i will be mostly commenting my discoveries.
Welcome to you reader, i am happy to meet you !
