Heatwave Favorites: Olfactive Studio Panorama & Fiele Fragrances Myrrha ~ fragrance reviews
Louis Armstrong and I have similar reactions to soaring temperatures: stunned looks and handkerchiefs. In the Pacific Northwest this year, we’ve been experiencing the long hot summer. To reference another movie title, most days I think: “Hurry Sundown!” During the almost-constant heatwaves since June, I’ve discovered I love to wear strong fragrances in the heat: woody/resinous, smoky compositions (is that a forest fire?…or my perfume?) Wearing warm assertive perfumes in summer is like drinking hot tea on a sunny, 90-degree balcony; I imagined misery but, instead, enjoy wallowing in the heat, merging with it instead of fighting it (till a moment comes when I run into the air-conditioned house).

Fiele Fragrances Pogostemon, Cedrus & Juniperus ~ fragrance reviews
Santa Monica, California-based Fiele Fragrances offers five perfumes; I’m reviewing three today (I’ve not had the chance to sniff Viola and Myrrha).

Juniperus
Juniper Leaf/Berry (Nepal), Juniper Berry CO2 Select Extract (India), Virginia Cedarwood (USA), Myrrh CO2 Select Extract (Somalia), Organic Fir Needles (Bulgaria), Organic Ylang Ylang (Madagascar), Bergamot (Italy), Pink Peppercorn (USA)
Juniperus opens with lovely cedar, juniper leaf, fir and myrrh…
