Italian Christmas Cake

Very olfacto-realistic scent of the Italian dried fruit, rum soaked Christmas cake, panettone. In fact, I have a freshly opened panettone sitting in front of me as I write, waiting for friends to come by for an early holiday dinner, and it's almost indistinguishable from Milano Fragranze's creation. Beautiful sweet cru...

If only my dentist's office smelled like this!

Yeah, there's a twang reminiscent of BR 540 in here, but it's pretty short-lived. I can even understand why some say it smells like a dental office, and there's a bit of that in here as well. I guess the masochist in me loves this side of it, the mix of fear and anticipation, a twinge of bloody gums, gauze and anesthet...

Sometimes you just need a summer staple freshie that performs like nothing else

While I love a complex perfume with many layers and twists, when the temperature climbs over 33-35C with 80% humidity and the sun mercilessly beats down on you (aka Japanese summer), I don't want or need all that. During summer, give me a fresh green scent that doesn't need constant reapplication, a scent that's cool a...

Like Black from Bulgari

I get the feeling that whoever's been designing for Map of the Heart is like the fairy godmother who got wind of the many complaints about discontinued 90's perfumes and said to herself "What if.....!" A lot of Map of the Heart scents seem to be bringing back that decade: Gold Heart V.4 is 90% Le Feu d'Issey , and Blac...

There`s a glitch in the Matrix

This smells so wrong on me!!! It`s like some weird plastic mixed with citrus and sunscreen lotion, it`s really disturbing. I`ve had a similar experience with the olive-musk-amber notes in Xerjof`s Fiore d`Ulivo, but this is like experiencing that embarrassing funk a hundred times over. Amber and musk are absolutely nau...

Heavy sunshine and pink bubblegum

Sunshine is a strong mid-day sun, somewhere in the desert, beating down on the hot, hot sand that burns the soles of your bare feet while you chew not one or two, but possibly three or four pink bubble gums. It smells just like this bubblegum from Turkey that I used to break my jaws on as a kid, Turbo. Sunshine is kind...

Not as pretty as the one in the red bottle

Sweet resinous, balsamic white flower bouquet that I feel like I`ve smelt somewhere else before. I much prefer the red version, where the marriage between the ginger and jasmine-tuberose was creating a pleasing atmosphere. The cardamom in here just feels a tad weird, kind of gourmand, kind of not. I sense a peppery van...

Green, Assertive Beta Male.

Initially, I was really attracted by the concept of this house because I ador green notes and on cooler days, I also like to flirt with leather. Unfortunately, I don't get on with most of their perfumes: to my nose, they read too sharp, too harsh, and they're not blended in a way I can enjoy. Still, I like Nightscape....

Twin Peaks Blue Rose.

THIS is David Lynch's Blue Rose. She is deep, mysterious, veiled in a camphorous green haze, this woody rose has thorns, no sweetness, and demands your respect. Abyssae is a scent that requires darker, elegant cold weather outfits. The camphor note is soothing, patrician, nothing cheap or medicinal here. One of the mor...
