Honeysuckle in bloom

Le 1er avril 2008 à 22:19 sur 1000fragrances

I simply love this hypnotic white flower. More than jasmine. More than magnolias. But I always had a trouble with this flower. In France it seems that the flower is also popular (as it is in my country) and there were all kind of honeysuckle colognes or perfume bases. But my nose never (...)

It was by then on of the most important perfume house but soon, with WWII the decline of the house will start and once the number one of France will lose its prestige and the world "domination".In early 30's there were a number of ads in most (...)

The smell of lower classes

Le 26 mars 2008 à 14:03 sur 1000fragrances

I am amused when smell anthropologists or artists in West speak about bad smells, classes, racism. Because all their experience is pure theory. In fact most of them never experienced bad smells because West Europe and North America eradicated them years before they were born. To say today that (...)
