Scented Quote of the Day, from Arthur Minton:

duke_women_1946.jpg
Duke women 1946 

Minton writes bout Gallicized perfume names in America as of 1946 (a method applied sometimes quite erratically if you read the rest of Minton's article, which is at times hilarious, especially when he gives long lists of perfume names with funny mistakes in them.) Some of my favorites are: Charme d'France, La Joye, Le Secrét Discret, Mon Spi, De Sir De Toi, Ne Moub Liez Pas, Puré Paris, Mon Ajour, Ro Mantique, La Plus Des Fleurs, Violette Verdue, Rafraichu....I am laughing so much it hurts!!):......

Interviews with Aerin Lauder & Frida Giannini {The 5th Sense in the News]

Aerin Lauder.JPG

Aerin Lauder, senior vice-president and creative director of Estée Lauder, is interviewed on the occasion of the launch of Private Collection Tuberose Gardenia,

"It was John Demsey, who at one time ran M.A.C. in Canada and is now group president at Lauder, who suggested the 37-year-old take a more public role. "I was in a meeting with John talking about retail and business trends, and how we should create something special for customers like Holt Renfrew. He said, `The answer is in the room.'"

Coincidentally, Lauder says, while working on other fragrances she had perfumers developing a white floral to satisfy her personal taste. "They were secretly passing me things on the side to try. So when John said that, it all came together."....

Tom Ford Black Orchid Voile de Fleur {Perfume Short (Review)} {New Perfume}

Voile de Fleur.jpg

Black Orchid Voile de Fleur is one of the latest Tom Ford additions to his house catalog of perfumes. As its name indicates, it is a twist on his previous major feminine launch, Black Orchid. It was originally conceived as the lighter eau de toilette version of the dark heavy floral that is Black Orchid, which is such until its dry-down, which toys with the idea that the best endings should be light-hearted. Voile de Fleur was created by perfumers David Apel and Pierre Negrin.....

Beauty Factory: How to Play Fragrance Developer {Fragrant Shopping}

beauty factory Jeu.jpg

If you are at least 10 and willing to invest the sum of 19.99 Euros you can now become a perfume developer or at least pretend that you are one on a rainy afternoon. The lessons drawn from the game are rather matter-of-fact. Beauty Factory presents itself as a strategic game around beauty and in particular asks of you to create  "perfume formulas that will please consumers the most, then launch the production while choosing the product price and deciding upon the budget for advertising." So it is official? Perfumery is not an art anymore and children should realize that as quickly as possible?.....

Index of New Perfumes in 2006 & 2007 {Fragrance News}

Perfume Antiquity.jpg

Dear Readers,

We have compiled an Index of New Perfumes in 2006 and 2007 in alphabetical order for your browsing convenience. These lists are selective as the task of indexing every new release in detail would be both tedious and time-consuming. A new creation, a new twist, an interesting packaging, a novel or trendy concept, a historically significant perfume house latest output or update, a new perfume brand are all reasons to turn our attention towards a new launch. Average flankers will be therefore under-represented. For new limited editions offering the same juices, you can go to Fragrance News and Luxury Perfumes.......
