night ella day started with a harsh lemon note that wasn t my thing at all but ella night was actually quite lovely smelling of fur and vanilla making me miss the cats even more it lasted the whole trip on my wrist the fur fading and the vanilla getting thinner and thinner and more like vanillin sugar as the hours went by not terribly complicated but i m not complaining i seldom like vanillas so i m happy i came across this one posted by flavourfanatic at 12 51 am 10 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels cats ella fur vanilla sunday july 1 2012 neighborhood smellies i ve been so busy this week preparing to go with the kids to iceland wrapping up things at work before the holidays taking care of the garden etc etc that i haven t had time to prepare a proper perfume post so instead i figuered i d show you some other great smelling things that grow around my house the area i live in is full of older houses with georgeous gardens surrounding them a funny thing is that most gardens tend to be very similar when it comes to what plants grow in them when spring first started the lawns were covered in squills scillor and wood anemones vitsippor then came the daffodils in the flower beds after that came major lilac season they were everywhere then rhodedendron currently there are three top players presented below mock orange up until a year ago i thought mock oranges were jasmines in swedish they re named schersmin which very confusingly is pronounced almost exactely the same as jasmine but apparently they re another species altogether nontheless they smell divine it s a sweet heady and almost fruity scent so strong you can smell a few flowers from across the street and so syrupy i wouldn t mind eating it with a spoon peony and peonies their scent makes me think of a fat free sugar free rose but what they lack in scent they make up for in looks they re so ridiculously big and colorful make me swoon every time elder flowers the scent of elder flowers is an interesting one they remind me of mimosa minus the almondy facet though i ve only ever smelled mimosa in perfume so this might not be a very valid observation but there is some anise in there and caraway according to the fragrantica database only 4 perfumes have elder listen as a note that s very few i d love to see what a good perfumer could do with this one so this is what i smell at the moment coming up plants are lovely honeysuckle and roses what are you smelling i d love to hear pics my own posted by flavourfanatic at 9 51 pm 10 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels summer tuesday june 26 2012 histoires de parfums 1889 moulin rouge i ve said it before the best thing about having perfumes as a hobby is not the many great perfumes you ll get to savour or how good you ll become at recognizing scents the very best thing is the lovely people you get to meet a while ago i wrote about how i d just realised that the mall next to my work had two perfume shops in it parfumistan over at parfumistans blogg commented that she also works near a mall with two perfume shops and as sweden is a very small country of course it turned out to be the same mall since then we ve been meeting up for perfume lunch once a month or as i like to think of it no limit perfume nerd fests and we ve been exchanging samples as well one of the perfumes parfumistan generously let me try is 1889 moulin rouge by histoires de parfums i ve had the sample for a while now and been meaning to write about it for some time but it s a hard scent to write about i m a little embarrassed by my perceptions of it and you ll see why lets start with the name 1889 moulin rouge a legendary nightclub in paris mostly known for it s can can dancers how might it have smelled in 1889 like lots of warm bodies probably some of them wearing the same skimpy scene costumes night after night at a time when hygiene standards probably did not include daily showers or dry cleaning is that something you d want bottled if you re some kind of victorian bent pervert sure but most us would likely prefer living in ignorance on this one the official notes of the perfume tell a different story though top notes are tangerine prune and cinnamon warm fruity spicy yum heart notes are absinthe and rose of damascus liquorice rose that could be nice base notes are iris patchouli musk and fur sounds good once again but unfortunately i m not getting a single one of these notes what i m getting out of 1889 moulin rouge is this strawberry strings jordgubbssnören strawberry strings are my sons favourite candy it s basicly strawberry flavoured liquorice they are rather nice i probably wouldn t buy them for myself but i happily gobble down a string or two whenever opportunity is given 1889 moulin rouge starts with leathery strawberry strings almost immediatly on applying the scent softens and moves towards a sweeter and fruitier variety of strawberry strings toward the end it smells like strawberry strings that have been left out in the air for some time some of the aroma has evaporated but they still taste the same just now a showing off a dustier more mellow facet of themselves and those are the notes i m managing to pin down this is a really lame description which is a pity because 1889 moulin rouge is not a lame scent whatsoever it s just very hard to describe as the notes are all so well integrated it s near impossible to tell them apart it s a lovely scent comfy and cheerful and envelops your body in a sweet red hued shimmer although sillage is low longlivety is great i ve been wearing it for work as it s both encouraging and discreet and it lasts all day i ve also been wearing it to bed as it s warm and cozy enough to induce happy dreams interestingly enough the only thing it s not made for it s a grand night out including absinth drinking and watching risqué dance acts very much in spite of it s name posted by flavourfanatic at 9 40 pm 8 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels candy histoires de parfums liquorice raspberry sweet warm wood thursday june 21 2012 a scent for sadness my grandpa jakob sigurðsson and myself in everybodys life there are ups and downs some days are good some great other not so good there are times when whatever is pulling you down can be successfully shrugged off maybe by go seeing a friend read a couple of blogs or have a long hot bath and there are occasions when it s not so easy sometimes sadness must be met head on you have to embrace it and let it do it s thing because then and only then it ll pass i had a bout of the latter kind a while ago as my grandfather passed away it wasn t unexpected he d been very ill for a long time but still when death actually strikes it s always devestating all of a sudden the livliness of floral and fruity scents felt wrong gourmands especially the sweeter ones i couldn t stand at all as i m the kind of person who looses apetite when sad loud dramatic scents with a lot going on in them were just too much i had enough of issues of my own i tried going scentless but that didn t feel right either i wanted something an olfactory equivalent of a funeral dress something functional and no fuss to get me through the day without demanding any attention and what kind of a scent would that be there was one that came to mind it was released earlier this year and when i first tried it back in february i didn t think much of it but now under these new circumstances there was something about it that kept tugging at my sleeve i had a try and yes serge lutens l eau froide did hit the spot it starts out with grapefruit but there is no sun kissed florida goodness here when i say grapefruit i mean grapefruit zest of grapefruits 20 years ago before ruby was the norm and your face puckered up at every bite on top of that i get a mint but it s compeltely stripped of all its herby facets only the cold is left there came a card with my sample and if i remember correctly it said that l eau froide smelles like cold water running through rusty pipes that is a very accurate description of how the scent moves on there is water metal and cold and that s it there is supposed to be somali incense in there but as that s not a note i m familiar with so unfortunately i can t pick it out if i d envision l eau froide as a person it would be as a stiff and solemn old fashioned butler one who keeps a respectful distance but still is always ready to do whatever needs to be done day after day after day without ever letting the tiniest inch of personal emotion slip out through his face he might never smile but he got me through days when my body felt numb with grief and my mind was so muddled i compeltely lost track of what i d actually been been saying and doing thought about saying and doing and dreamt i d said and done thankfully i m through the worst of it now the flowers have regained their colors and the food has taste again i wouldn t call l eau froide either joyful or adventurous but it stood by me when i mostly needed it and for that i ll be forever greatful images fragrantica and my own posted by flavourfanatic at 9 16 pm 15 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels aquatic cold cologne grapefruit mint serge lutens water saturday june 16 2012 sa majeste la rose serge lutens i seem to be on a bit of a rose spree right now possibly it has to do with the weather i remember i was into roses at this time last year as well few raw materials gives me such a width of visions as rose scents there are so many fragrances yet they all manage to be so different there are freshly sprung morning roses complete with dew drops and a garden there are pale pink shabby chic country living dainty teacup roses that are very nice indeed but somehow lack a lower body there are the smoldering incense roses heavyweight middle eastern roses dark roses blood roses one excellent rose scent is serge lutes sa majeste la rose this is an almost rose soliflore is there a technical term for almost soliflore i d love to know smelling first and foremost of rose with a skeletal background of other notes adding context and spine the intro is rose and rose alone when applied super light it smells very natural like smelling a rose on its stem in a garden at the same time heady innocent and sweet but whenever wearing more than a single drop another facet comes out to play suddenly the scent toggles between its original pretty rosyness and something oily and metallic the effect is the same as the picture on the right just as you either see the beautiful young girl or the old woman but not both at the same time i either get the pretty side or the metallic side of sa majeste la rose but not both i find this type of olfactory dynamics very interesting it makes me think of the mad genius stereotype a person who s brilliant in some ways but also ravinly insane in others but oily metal is not something that should be done in excess and fortunately it does fade after a while as sa majeste la rose develops a luxurious honey note reveals itself the honey somehow warms and opens up the rose removes every trace of innocence at this point we ve got a sultry sexy little thing someone waiting in anticipation for her lover to arrive and he sure does as we re moving toward the dry down a note of gaiac wood emerges i interpert it as very masculine and absolutely gorgeous first time i noticed it i immediately assumed that it had to be something a male coworker was wearing which was odd as i d never noticed that any of them wear perfume before ever who d have believed they d this good taste then i realised it was all me so i enjoy sa majeste la rose a lot it s great for summer and it manages to sport just the right amount of interesting backdrops while still staying in the lighter rose category a great feature is that it comes across very differently depending on how much is applied it can be perfectly appropriate for work if applied lightly and more suited for other occasions when using more offical notes moroccan rose absolute gaiac wood clove white honey musk posted by flavourfanatic at 1 12 pm 10 comments email this blogthis

she celebrated by doing a draw on facebook 50 lucky commenters would win a sample of her yet unnamed and not officially described scent before the official release we were encouraged to write down our opinions and the most interested ones were to be published on her site and guess what i was one of the winners of a sample i ve had so much fun sniffing blindly and here s my impression this is a little chamelion of a scent i ve been discovering new notes on every try the first time i tried it on was on a very cold day 6 degrees celsius and windy outside i d been out and was chilled to the bone when i discovered that my vero kern package had arrived the first notes that stuck me when spraying was citrus herbs and stone i thought i got lemongrass lime and white chalky rocks it felt chilly strict and severe but at the same time classy and smelling very good one of my initial thoughts was an asian take on chanel no 19 unfortunately i fell asleep before drydown first try the next morning another go this was a mild and sunny morning warm enough to wear an unbuttoned light jacket to work my impression of the scent now was a completely different one no asia and absolutely no chanel no 19 i still got rocks and citrus but the composision felt warmer i smelled a meadow of lemon trees growing in dry chalky soil the sun was shining and there was a glimpse of the sea in a dinstance i would not call it an aquatic or even marine scent but there is definately a feeling of saltiness and minerals second try third time was yet again completely different now it was raining outside and clouds were dark and heavy during the opening i hardly got any citrus at all what i got was freshly cut fennel complete with fronds after a while there was lemon oil but only breifly there were also wet slippery grey stones when the lemon oil faded mild green notes lingered on i got lettuce and faint grass third try the dry down is wonderful but hard to pin down as the notes are very well integrated here i think there might be myrrhe some citrusy resins salty minerals and there is a super tiny hint of something vanillic by now it makes my body smell fresh but not in that artificial soapy clean way neither in a musky way it s like breathing fresh air it smells like my body might have smelled if i had done my excersises eaten organic food and taken care of myself it s a me but better scent that actually delivers and vero i applaud you for pulling that off http www thaiworldview com http bestthingsinbeauty blogspot se http vege...
