Hi, I was surprised and happy to discover your website, being a lover of the fragrances I've loved/love. I've wondered about some of the fragrances that have been discontinued, and you may have info on your site about this, but I haven't had time yet to read everything! I'm just wondering about how easy/difficult, and how costly, it is , for one to buy recipe/patent for discontinued fragrances. Might be a better option for me to buy STOCK in companies that WILL produce some of the older good ones. Thank you, Melissa B. ......

Hi,
I came across your website a few days back and was really impressed. There is an ocean of happening things to read on your website!!! I am looking for a particular perfume for a friend back in Belgium. The trouble is he only gave me the description of the fragrance and he doesn't remember the name of the perfume either. Here is what he says....
- Smells like rain during spring in Belgium
- Contains clay
- Pretty expensive
Is there someone who can help me ??? I'm now in India and am leaving for Belgium in a week. Would be fantastic if I could get it for him.
Cheers, Joseph H.

Beauty Interviews has a piece with Lyn Harris, the founder and perfumer of Miller Harris. How do you source the ingredients for Miller Harris perfumes?
I only use the finest quality raw ingredients. I take pride in carefully selecting my materials from different regions and with my chemicals, again, I have my favourites, which I obtain through certain suppliers whom I favour. As I defined and refined my style, I have found that I am far more selective of the chemicals I work with. I have now got to a stage in my creativity where I am happy to limit myself to around 300 out of thousands and thousands available in perfumery. This is important in defining my style as a perfumer. I am confident about limiting my vocabulary in terms of these materials. However, the opposite is true of natural ingredients. I try and discover new naturals – I don’t like to be limited in that respect.

There is a very interesting interview of Alan Stuart, co-founder of Headonism, a line of organic scented hair care on newconsumer.com, "The UK's hottest ethical lifestyle magazine." The fragrances are so good a French perfumer could not believe his nose when he caught the aroma of Scent 2 and was told it was coming from a shampoo and not from a fragrance.....

Initially launched in 2004 as a limited edition, Vétiver Pour Elle will be included this fall in the Guerlain collection called Les Parisiennes. How could it be otherwise? Jean-Paul Guerlain's female friends after having adopted his original Vétiver, which he composed in 1959 when he was just 18, were begging him to offer a feminine twist on the classic fragrance. Even if adopted by generations of women who had not waited for anyone's permission to make Vétiver theirs, curiosity being part of human nature and dissatisfaction the motor of progress or history at least, a Vétiver For Her was felt to be long overdue.....
