Hinoki by Comme des Garçons

Posted on 2023-06-11

One of the most incredible things about perfumes is, beyond the way they smell, and the way they make you feel, is their ability to transport you to a place and/or a time, either a real one from your own memory or even a place or era wholly imagined. Hinoki is a scent that wells…

Cherry Smoothie by Zara

Posted on 2023-05-13

Zara has come out with good fragrances, especially recently, and you really cannot beat the price for much of what they come out with. I’m a big lover of cherry fragrances so of course I didn’t hesitate to blind buy Cherry Smoothie. But, much as it has a few good points to it, overall it…

Ambre Sultan by Serge Lutens

Posted on 2023-04-23

To get a general sense about how others feel about a given fragrance, I often head over to Fragrantica, which I did to prepare for this review. I was not entirely surprised to find that the social site has added an AI component to its website that summarizes comment-generated pros and cons of a given…

Pi by Givenchy

Posted on 2023-02-16

Crumbly marzipan cookies dusted with icing sugar à la 3.14159265. That’s Givenchy Pi. In this post, I take you back a few decades to review an early gourmand I first discovered in a Montreal department store on a home visit between jobs here in Japan. I had a boyfriend at the time who smelled delicious…

Look what my cactus plant pushed forth over the weekend! There’s always something in bloom every month of the year where I live. Blessed!
Great discount on the bottle of #diorgrismontaigne ...with reason. The nozzle was busted. I googled all the things one can do in such a situation, and one actually worked!
My AI + prompt generated painting of a perfume bottle. I put "Chanel" in there, but it looks like #midjourney (the software I used) might be blocked from making use of copyrighted content (a good thing). It also generates some creepy facial features on both humans and animals. Both incredible and scarey tech, though!
