What fragrance are you wearing today?

Black Aoud (Montale) rose oud

Is that a mace dangling from the nozzle of this canister? I suppose it’s there to warn you that this fragrance is about to pummel you with a mighty blast of soapy rose and oud that may leave you staggering a full eight hours. This juice is strong. Instead of a spritzer, it should come packaged with a fire hose.

hawns You make some fine juice sir. I smell like a sexy leather chair today, I love it!

Thank you! Glad you've been enjoying them and that you feel like seductive furniture

Eau de Missions (Couvent des Minimes) vanilla tea

The label describes this as the “botanical cologne,” but I don’t smell the citrus, florals, and woods that you normally find in a fragrance of that name. Instead, I get a lot of sweet vanilla floating in a sea of tea. It’s an unusual accord. Though I don’t usually go for fragrances that smell edible, I like Eau de Missions for its peculiar combination of mildness and endurance.
