Will, I like the newsletter. It was informative and thought provoking. I really liked the perfume review. Especially nice that this one was at a price point that I can afford right now.
I took the article as try to give something more than, "It smelled nice, and had good performance." I know that I have refrained from a couple of reviews because I was not quite sure how to describe it. Others paint a distinct picture in my mind and I have used that. An example being Stirling's cocoa forest. It for me is like, "Drinking cocoa on porch of log cabin in pine woods of the mountains." This type of description is more what I am sure Lago was asking for. Not always something like, "The herby sage scent tones down the bright lemon and balances the deep almost amber qualities of the dark aged honey" (Though I am sure it is fine too if that is what you can come up with)
I can admit I that at beginning of the article I was getting defensive, I have put up reviews like he is suggesting against, but understood what he was attempting.
