B-glowing is accepting pre-orders for the new Miriam Mirani Jewels of Aqaba scents (see description from Monday).
Beautycafe is now accepting pre-orders for Bond no. 9 Bleecker Street and the Chinatown candle.
New at hamptonct: The Rancé line.
New at luckyscent: The il Profumo line and Maître Parfumeur et Gantier for women & men.
Scentiments is temporarily offline due to Hurricane Wilma.
Of course I had to look at all the novelties and Rancé Le VainQueur Eau de Toilette sounds interesting, it has a ginger note too…Enabler!
M, Rance said they would send me samples of their line but they didn't. Have heard they are nice though!
aha…off to look for their site…
PS looked at Il Profumo line…oh my Ambre d'Or is calling my name real loud
Encens Epice is calling too…what is a girl to do!!
M, I tried several from the il Profumo line at Tak, but it was the end of the day and my nose was tired. I can barely remember them now. They do all sound worth trying!
I'm sad that Lucky Scent doesn't use Il Profumo's own marketing copy, with all of its Engrish glory. I fondly recall relaxing on the couch with the booklet, with its mentions of “hegemonic vanilla” and “the inevitable yellow rose.”
I just talked to Franco at Luckyscent today and he said that the Ambre d'Or is inded super fantastic (to quote the Manolo).
T, you have a better memory than I do, I just remembered that it was silly!
Drat, of course that is one that I didn't try in Tak! Will have to order samples.
The Il Profumo line of perfumes (La Via del Profumo) is also offered at The Perfumer's Apprentice in Santa Cruz, Ca. and can be ordered over the phone or by email. small sample bottles are sold as well as other sizes. They have carried almost all of them for a year now.
Thanks for letting me know!
Got a box full of samples from Rance today…wow!
Josephine is nice, the other one, Le vainqueur is most definitely not for me, turned aquatic on my skin…there are lots more, I am quite overwhelmed :-0
Wow, let me know what else you like! Aquatic rarely appeals to me either though
