    Fragrances can often trigger memories. Sometimes these associations are deliberate, like when you choose a scent for your wedding, and some are unintentional, like the year my husband bought me Aventus for Her for Christmas.

  • Intrigant Patchouli 08 – seductive and elegant and made to be worn

    Throughout the years that I’ve been writing about perfume, I’ve noticed that patchouli is one of those a love it or hate notes. I happen to love it. I love its rich, earthy, smoky, sweet, spicy balsamy, woody scent. And with so many fabulous aspects, a good perfumer can really get creative with it. I am reminded of this every time I wear Intrigant Patchouli 08 from French indie line Pierre Guillaume Paris.
