Olympic Orchids Artisan Perfumes is a line of fragrances developed by Dr. Ellen Covey, initially to capture the unique scents of various orchids. Eventually, she expanded the line to include other categories as well. I found myself attracted to the perfumes in her “Scents of Place” collection
Sarah Horowitz is known as the force behind Creative Scentualization, and now Sarah Horowitz Parfums. She has three perfume series, What Comes from Within, Perfumers Palette, and PERFECT. I was lucky enough to receive some of her latest creation for the PERFECT series: Coconut Milk. A wonderfully almondy, warm take on a classic beachy note, I wanted to know how this fragrance came about.
Tama Blough found herself attracted to the “Scents of Place” collection, each created to evoke a certain part of the world that Dr. Covey has experienced. Three of the fragrances from that collection stood out Siam Poun, Olympic Forest & Kingston Ferry.Our draw is reader’s choice
One of my favorite ongoing collections is that being done by Mathilde Laurent, the in-house perfumer for Cartier. It is called the Les Heures de Cartier and in what will be an eventual 13-fragrance collection the ninth entry has just been released. Mme Laurent is not going in order and she is skipping around the clockface as she releases each one. This one represents II and is called L’Heure Convoiteé (The Coveted Hour).
Hr. Schoen always seems to want to touch us with beauty and intelligence when he creates perfume. It is why when I heard he was making a perfume for the 20th anniversary of the death of German actor Klaus Kinski I was elated.
The fragrance line bearing the JPG line has been one of the best masstige fragrance lines as LeMale continues to be a big seller. This is why any news that a new JPG fragrance is coming creates a bit of buzz around it. The latest release Kokorico is currently available in France only and will also be available in the UK later in 2012 with a 2013 release slated for the US.
