The New Zen (Zen 2007) by Shiseido : Perfume Review
2007-10-10 15:31:00 It was with a heavy heart that I reviewed the year 2000 release of Shiseido ’s Zen back in July, for it was as much a tribute as it was a farewell: The perfume alternatively known as Zen Pearl had recently been discontinued. Disappointed though I was, I would be lying if I said I wasn’t anticipating the brand new Zen with excitement. I have, after all, come to expect great things from Shiseido, More About: Perfume , Review
Perfume for the Occasion : Winter Holiday Scents
2007-10-08 16:20:00 Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, New Years Eve ... All sorts of Winter Holiday s are fast approaching, and even though it is still early, the beauty world is already busy, with companies like Givenchy already releasing this year’s holiday limited edition products. Alright, I’ll admit, it is a tad early to start contemplating winter holidays, but when TMH of For the Love of Perfume More About: The O
Smelly Facts : Neuron Renewal
2007-10-04 14:43:00 Have you ever heard others say that the adult brain has a fixed number of neurons and is unable to generate new ones once these die out? Indeed it was traditionally believed among scientists that the adult vertebrate brain could only lose neurons, never gain. (Kalat, 2007) Recently though, a small number of exceptions have been found. Among them, and of special interest to us of course, are the More About: Facts , Renewal , Rene , Melly
Daisy by Marc Jacobs : Perfume Review
2007-10-03 12:52:00 I have been saving my sample of Daisy for a couple of weeks now, with the prospect of using it for this month’s Tried and Tested feature. It struck me though, that perhaps something a little more elaborate is needed in this instance: many of you are likely to be wondering what this actually smells like and whether a visit to the closest department store is in order, since the cute-as-a-button More About: Perfume , Review , Marc Jacobs , Marc , Jacobs

2007-09-30 16:51:00 What are you wearing this fall? Fragrance Bouquet and For the Love of Perfume are sharing their Autumnal loves for 2007 today. Are you going to stay and share your own loves with us? Have you brought out the big guns already? I am talking about the spices, of course!

Blushing Bouquet
2007-09-30 04:07:00 Mariuca, one of the most wonderful, sweetest people frequenting the web has awarded me with this "I'm Fabulous" award! Isn't it lovely how its colors actually match the colors of my sidebar? It has found a permanent home above my search button. Thank you Mariuca, you've really made me happy :) And I know for a fact that you make so many others happy too - you spread happiness around. No, I don't
Ma Folie de Noel by Dawn Spencer Hurwitz : Perfume Review
2007-09-28 16:09:00 Do you remember how easily reality could change into enchanted playgrounds when you were a child? Do you remember how the air itself in an old cellar could suddenly assume presence, cold and damp, smelling of something far away, possibly touched by wizardry? Creatures would lurk in shadows and treasures untold were waiting to be discovered in long disused drawers. With no adults around to break More About: Perfume , Review , Dawn , Spencer , Noel
Soap Story : Esperys by Piver
2007-09-26 15:55:00 A touch of the flu has left me feeling a little worse for wear since yesterday, with a stomach that can’t possibly stomach sniffing perfume at the moment. How hateful is that? Especially so when there are new discoveries on my desk waiting to be reviewed. Let’s hope it doesn’t last long – I want to share some of my new discoveries with you by Friday. So, in the absence of a review today, how More About: Story , Soap
Fuel for Life by Diesel : Perfume Reviews
2007-09-24 17:22:00 I looove Diesel . I love the brand, the ads, I love the clothes. The jeans are amazing – nothing like a Diesel pair to create, nay, sculpt that perfect derrière that will lift my mood and give me an instant boost of confidence. Oh yes, I swear by them. And lately, I’ve also been rather taken by Diesel accessories, ever since the Boule Bag stole my heart last year. (I am still kicking myself for More About: Life , Reviews , Perfume , Fuel

Black Widow by Black Widow: Perfume Review
2007-09-19 16:09:00 I love trying out new things. Now, Black Widow is not a brand new fragrance – it was released in 2004 after all, but I was not aware of its existence up until recently. When I saw it was being compared to Opium, one of my all time favorites, I knew I had to try it. The comparison itself is dangerous: these are big shoes to fill. Having tested Black Widow a number of times already, I have to say More About: Perfume , Review
Forget me Not : Ivoire by Balmain
2007-09-17 15:58:00 It’s the third Monday of the month and it is time for the first installment of Forget me Not, a monthly feature brought to you by Fragrance Bouquet and For the Love of Perfume. I wish I could offer some deep, meaningful justification on why I chose Ivoire by Balmain to be the first fragrance featured in this joint project, but I have to admit I cannot. It is not a choice that emerged after
By Woman by Dolce & Gabbana : Perfume Review
2007-09-13 17:27:00 I wore By Woman religiously in 1998; I remember its strong scent permeating everything at the time: my hair, my clothes, the hallway I’d rush through to get to the door, habitually late for any appointment. It has this way of leaving an air of longing behind it, hanging like a little cloud, long after the wearer has disappeared. I didn’t notice when it got discontinued, somehow I took it for More About: Perfume , Review , Dolce
Tried and Tested : Midnight Poison by Dior
2007-09-11 12:41:00 As was announced in the beginning of this month, Trie d and Tested is one of the new monthly features of Fragrance Bouquet. I knew the first perfume I was going to test-drive was Midnight Poison by Dior , not only because it’s new, but also because it made such an impression on me: It was completely opposite of what I expected it to be. I was expecting it to be seductive, mysterious and most of all
The Case of the Coveted Bottle
2007-09-10 13:53:00 Givenchy is not the only one sponsoring a contest right now. Covet actually has its very own game, “The Case of the Coveted Bottle ”, an interactive fictional story. In the game, Sarah Jessica Parker has been framed for the disappearance of a Covet bottle stolen from a Paris store and the players’ goal is to identify the true mastermind behind the theft.

Esperys by E. Coudray : Perfume Review
2007-09-05 16:18:00 What is the connection between E. Coudray and L.T. Piver? Why do they share the same address? Are they co-owned? Does Piver own Coudray? All questions I cannot answer unfortunately, but logic guides me to the conclusion that L.T. Piver probably does own Coudray, since every Coudray product is stamped with “L.T. Piver S.A.” while Piver products themselves bear no mention of Coudray on the More About: Perfume , Review
Perfume for the Occasion : Perfumes for the Gym
2007-09-03 18:53:00 Perfume and the Gym go together like...well, nothing, to be honest. Like water and oil, they don’t mix. They shouldn’t mix. Yet, people keep doing it. In every class there’s bound to be at least one, wearing something infuriatingly heady, making the rest suffer, suddenly all too aware of the lack of fresh air around them. Angel. Poison. Kenzo’s Jungle. Some sort of strange head-shop oil the More About: Perfume , Perfumes , The O , The G
