Akro Night
In Milan, I finally got my nose on all the Akro perfumes and I finally got the hype. All of the scents are created for concepts that are part of people’s lives – they’re so easy to relate to. You … Continue reading
Menditerrosa Nettuno Perfume Review
Menditerrosa Nettuno is inspired by Neptune, the planet, and I supposed there is an outer space kind of feel to it, a metallic edge that’s kind of cool. This is like someone put silver roses into a marble bowl, crushed … Continue reading

Florals for spring: groundbreaking. These 2 work really well together, but the Serge Lutens is an Eau de Parfum, so it has better lasting power, and the Aerin Garden Rose is a toilette with amazing sillage. You smell the rose … Continue reading
