I decided to explore the perfumes of my youth to see if we could prove Thomas Wolfe wrong and “go home again”.
I only revisited fragrances I wore into my mid-twenties. Scents I wore later on do not seem to have the emotional impact of some of these earlier scents, are generally easier to obtain in some form, and are fragrances I have either already dismissed or still wear.
Have you seen the land living by the breeze
Can you understand the light among the trees
Tell me all that you may know
Show me what you have to show
Tell us all today
If you know the way to blue?
Meow!” commands a soft sexuality appropriate for use during any time of day. Its signature comes from a pairing of honeysuckle and pear with the backdrop of creamy vanilla, musk, and amber
Zibeline is an inebriating cocoon, a talismanic perfumed intoxicant.
It is very much old-school in the finest manner- by this, I mean that no expense had been spared in its creation.
Money was no object.
Natural Perfumers Guild Sr. Perfumers Adam Gottschalk, Anya McCoy, Christie Mashell, Elise Pearlstine and JoAnne Bassett create natural fragrances for the 13th sign aka Ophiuchus; EIC Michelyn Camen is an “Ophiuscus”. Astrology or Astronomy?
then the next day I wore my classic Roger & Gallet Jean Marie Farina and when I wear a classic Eau de Cologne I go crazy with application and spray it everywhere. I began to think that maybe I needed to give Eau Monumentale another chance but this time applying it with more than one spray. So out of the fragrant Recycle Bin Eau Monumental came and much spritzing later a very different opinion on this fragrance.
