illustration [4] Matthieu Appriou We finish the set today with scents [4], [5], and [6]. I now wrap up a joyous project – working my way through six scents and six illustrations, created by perfumer Cécile Zarokian and illustrator Matthieu Appriou. (Part One can be found here). Simply entitled 1 through 6, the fragrances …
Dzhari was the best of these six fragrances in the Phaedon collection. This felt like a trip to a desert caravansary courtesy of M Guillaume as first you walk by a pile of dates; rich opulent fruit redolent of dark places.
The perfumer behind Judith Leiber Topaz is Hugh Spencer. Mr. Spencer clearly has an understanding of the designer he was creating a fragrance for. Topaz works from an opulent oud base which is adorned with fruity floral bling.
Z is for Zibeline.
S is for Sables I’m referring to the furs !].
Z=S as Zibeline = Sables.
The voluptuous Zibeline parfum was created by the House of Weil in 1928, at the request of a regular client who wished to perfume her furs.
If all my scents are a part of myself, this one is particularly dear to me.”

The Paris-based fragrance house Diptyque is celebrating their 50th anniversary in 2011. Now at the end of this celebratory year they finish with a flourish by releasing two fragrances and a candle to complete the 34 Boulevard Saint Germain collection.The two fragrances are called Eau Particuliere and Eau Mage. I enjoyed both of these interesting creations very much.
