Somehow, through all these years of Calvin Klein making perfume, I have never worn a single one. When I was looking around for something new in Sephora, I remembered some buzz going around the boards and Facebook about ck one shock. I picked up samples of for her and for him. Although obviously marketed toward the youth demographic, I took my chances that age appropriateness wouldn’t be a factor.
The seven fragrances which make up the Bespoke collection are perhaps some of the most individually interesting fragrances Ms. Mecheri has made. When I say “interesting” that means “not for everyone”.
The language associated with scent is complex, largely French, hard to pronounce, and often as overwrought as descriptions of fine wine. Brent Leonesio, of Smellbenthas done all of us a favor with his new fragrance collection, Vocabulary. He has created six perfumes, each representing a basic fragrance category
The new fragrance from Etat Libre D’Orange is inspired by both the cuisine and cinema of the islands of Southeast Asia.
Founder of Etat Libre D’Orange Etienne De Swardt tasked perfumer Ralf Schwieger with creating this fragrance, Fils de Dieu du Riz et des Agrumes (Son of God, rice, and citrus).
The Electron Rose has a brilliant pink aspect to it and it is said the sap also carries a subtle fragrance. The Electron Rose is a hybrid tea rose. The idea of Electron the fragrance is to capture the vibrancy of this almost neon colored rose.
At this January’s Elements Showcase they finally showed me something which did tickle my optic sweet spot. Their newest release is called Ylang In Gold and infused in the juice is 24K gold dust and pearlescent particles. If that was all there was to Ylang In Gold it would be interesting but the perfume holding all the shiny particles shines all on its own as Ylang In Gold is one of the best fragrances in the entire Parfums M. Micallef collection.
