Molinard Habanita Perfume Review
Baby powder, then smoke, woods, just enough vanilla to draw you in, melt into your skin. The smell of seasons changing. Anything is possible. This is historical perfume at its finest. Originally created in the 1920’s for women to scent … Continue reading
Sisley Eau de Campagne
I had to revisit Eau de Sisley No. 2 because my nose keeps coming back to my sample of Eau de Campagne. Cold and green, No. 2 is in the sharp chypre style of Sisley’s Eau du Soir, seamlessly blended … Continue reading
Diptyque Eau de Sens Perfume Review
Intentionally imperfect like a rumpled linen button-up shirt. Last few gorgeous days of summer and wearing #diptyque Eau de Sens hair mist. This really works as a hair mist because it’s distinctly in-perfumelike, nor is it too soapy. Bitter orange … Continue reading
St. Clair Scents Gardener’s Glove

It’s fall and I just added this back into my rotation. Rose-oud by way of rose-patchouli but with spiciness from saffron, and a bit of leathery birch tar. Starts off so strong, almost cough-inducing, but settles to a silk skin. … Continue reading
Foope Perfumes Review
Sent to me by Foope Fragrances. This is their “cop it or drop it” kit where you can try the testers and decide whether you’ll keep a bottle or not. Whatever you’re not keeping, you send back to the brand. … Continue reading
Oribe Fragrances Review
Megan Markle said in a 2015 interview that one of her favourite perfumes was Oribe Cote d’Azur, so I’m sure that made it pretty popular. Last year, Oribe relaunched it, and added 2 more perfumes, Desertland and Valley of Flowers, … Continue reading
Kai Fragrance, Body Products
This is what I smell like after a shower: Kai. They have a whole line of products that smell like their iconic perfume. Kai is a beautiful blend of white florals, gardenia and tuberose, and as much as I say … Continue reading
