December 18, 2007Basil, Pear, & Grapefruit by Marc Jacobs (2008) {New Fragrances}
Marc Jacobs has been steadily adding new scents to his collection of giant splash bottles that immediately evoke an era in which colognes were to be found in the bathroom as indispensable hygienic waters and liberally applied. Although these scents are not meant to be used literally as generously, they nevertheless invite a more ample perfuming gesture........

December 19, 2007Chypre d'Orient, Pêche de Vigne by Molinard (2007) {Perfume Short (Reviews)} Truly bad-smelling perfumes are a rarity. Atrocious-smelling ones even rarer. One finds many mediocre perfumes, simplistic ones, decent ones, and as Jean-Paul Guerlain remarked once, there are so many good perfumes in the world! The two new releases by Molinard this year - admittedly in a low-priced line but it is no justification for even bothering to bottle such caricatures - Chypre d'Orient and Pêche de Vigne are positively and without ambiguity, the worst perfumes we have smelled so far this year. Molinard repackaged their perfumes into new art deco bottles, dressing them up in other words, but it seems that their efforts have concentrated on external appearance rather than on the scents themselves. The bottles are just OK and the juices are frankly absurd......

Diorlight Lipgloss Necklace: Dreams of a Pomander Necklace {Holiday Shopping Idea - $100 or Less} Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby studying the foul-smelling pomander pendant she is made to wear during her pregnancy Dior has released a limited edition lip-gloss encased in a wonderful spherical pendant called Diorlight. We wanted to write about it because after seeing it in reality, it struck us as better-looking in person than on pictures. The differences? Diorlight's proportions are bolder than we had imagined them to be, so it makes it a more substantial, sculptural piece to play with and wear. It has a good quality sense of heft to it, without being too heavy, which can then cheapen a jewelry piece at the other end of the spectrum. So, it does not look or feel flimsy at all. It is just a beautiful ball pendant, encrusted with crystals...... Previous Posts in Perfume Shopping Tips: Christmas Fruitcake Anyone? A Monastic Bestseller

Scented Quote of the Day, from Jean-Jacques Rousseau: Jean-Jacques Rousseau in an Armenian costume, Geneva "Les odeurs par elles-mêmes sont des sensations faibles ; elles ébranlent plus l’imagination que le sens, et n’affectent pas tant par ce qu’elles donnent que par ce qu’elles font attendre. Cela supposé, les goûts des uns, devenus, par leurs manières de vivre, si différents des goûts des autres, doivent leur faire porter des jugements bien opposés des saveurs, et par conséquent des odeurs qui les annoncent. Un Tartare doit flairer avec autant de plaisir un quartier puant de cheval mort, qu’un de nos chasseurs, une perdrix à moitié pourrie" (our translation after the jump).......
