Monsieur Guillaume seems to be a restless and tireless, extremely creative person, as he is not "just" a perfumer for Parfumerie Générale and Hutième Art, but also for Phaedon. Chapeau! So far, the Phaedon fragrances (except for "Rouge Avignon" and "Tabac Rouge") have not really convinced me. All of them, except for th...
Read review →The reasons for fragrance tests can be varied; in my case, they were the following: 1.) I have already had very good experiences with "Shem-el-Nessim," which sparked my curiosity for more Grossmith fragrances. 2.) I have recently discovered "saffron" as a very beautiful fragrance component for myself and was curious to...
Read review →In my search for iris fragrances, I stumbled upon the company "Autour du Parfum" some time ago. Initially, "Poudre d'Iris" and "Ambre Mystere" made it onto my watchlist. When it got serious, meaning I was looking for samples, I had to realize that it would be a rather difficult undertaking. All "Google" paths led me to...
Read review →Ann Gerard is a Paris-based jeweler who has been designing precious jewelry for individuals and renowned jewelry companies in France and Japan since 1994. Together with perfumer Bertrand Duchaufour, the jewelry artist developed a series of perfumes based on the materials she uses, such as mother-of-pearl, opal, and pea...
Read review →Surely you know those puzzles where an original image and a corresponding "imitation" are depicted. The task is to find the differences between the original and the imitation. Usually, the deviations are easy to locate, but sometimes you have to look very closely. And this is exactly what "Ibisco" by L'Erbolario remind...
Read review →If you, like me, grew up in a more "rural" environment, at some point you start to question whether you want to stay there or not. I can clearly remember that I always enjoyed my stays with my aunt in Berlin immensely. The differences between my East Westphalian hometown and the ever-bustling metropolis couldn't have b...
Read review →The Eisenberg fragrances have never really impressed me. Too simple, too little character, and too unbalanced have they appeared to me so far. However, the scent pyramid of J'Ose Homme piqued my curiosity again. Since yesterday was a dark, chilly day, I hoped that J'Ose Homme would provide me with a cozy fragrance expe...
Read review →A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon "Cuir de R'Eve" by David Jourquin here under the "new and noteworthy" section. Hm, great fragrance notes (Iris butter!!) and an interesting bottle... of course, the scent ended up on my wish list. Now, I am usually a patient person, but when I get excited and things don't move quickly e...
Read review →The name alone sounds great and convinces me almost blindly of the bottle's contents, even before I have smelled the fragrance at all. But as a savvy perfume enthusiast, I have learned "Nose on before buying perfume!". And once again, I am glad that I initially ordered only a sample instead of the whole bottle! As I sa...
Read review →The roots of the house "Panouge" lie in the 1946-founded house "Parfums Lavarenne - Paris," which specialized in the production of Eau de Colognes. It was not until 1984 that the house "Panouge" emerged under the motto "Perfumes of the new generation." Since then, the house has been developing not only under its own na...
Read review →I must confess that the label "Sentifique" has intrigued me, as the promotional drum has been thoroughly beaten, and even "ALzD" has not tired of pointing out this Swiss company and its perfumes in various newsletters. A sample of "Testostérone" has been sitting in my "sample processing box" for quite some time. I trie...
