Gallivant Tokyo ~ fragrance review

Posted by Jessica on 28 September 2018 13 Comments

Independent fragrance brand Gallivant recently launched Tokyo, a “zingy, spicy, woody fragrance” that’s a tribute to kōdō, the Japanese “way of incense.” Tokyo’s notes include yuzu, bergamot, black pepper, cardamom and wasabi; hinoki, cedarwood, incense, iris, rose and nutmeg; and amber, sandalwood, vetiver and patchouli. It was developed for Gallivant by perfumer Nicholas Bonneville.

I’ve had luck trying Gallivant’s fragrances in the past, with Brooklyn and Amsterdam becoming my personal favorites from the line. Even when something from Gallivant doesn’t match my personal taste, I can appreciate its smart sensibility. Tokyo fits the Gallivant house style: it’s gender-neutral, appropriate for a variety of occasions, and accented with an intriguing blend of spices…

Les Parfums de Rosine Rose des Neiges ~ fragrance review

Posted by Jessica on 20 October 2016 28 Comments

Les Parfums de Rosine Rose des Neiges

Les Parfums de Rosine has been one of my favorite niche perfume houses for the past decade, so I always look forward to trying its newest releases.

Rose des Neiges was developed by perfumer Nicholas Bonneville and includes top notes of mandarin, pink pepper, lychee and watermelon; heart notes of rose and white violet; and base notes of sandalwood, ambroxan, heliotrope and musks.

“Powdery” is an understatement here…

Les Parfums de Rosine Muguet de Rosine ~ fragrance review

Posted by Jessica on 1 July 2016 9 Comments

Les Parfums de Rosine Muguet de Rosine

Last year Les Parfums de Rosine launched the limited edition fragrance Muguet de Rosine. Apparently it’s very different from the earlier (now discontinued) Muguet de Rosine; this version is a composition of bergamot, pear, lily of the valley, rose, jasmine and white musk, developed for Les Parfums de Rosine by perfumer Nicolas Bonneville (who also created La Cologne de Rosine, which I enjoyed trying last year).

Although Les Parfums de Rosine is one of my favorite niche perfume houses, I have mixed feelings about lily of the valley scents. I prefer seeing and smelling actual lily of the valley flowers to wearing lily of the valley perfumes…
