Atelier Cologne Jasmin Angelique ~ fragrance review
I can’t believe it’s October already. I recently came across the sample of Atelier Cologne’s Jasmin Angélique that a friend passed to me over lunch one day back in July. That visit is still very fresh in my memory, and at the same time it seems much too long ago. That’s how things are with long-distance friends. Now Jasmin Angélique is inextricably bound in my imagination to that happy afternoon; fortunately, it lives up to that challenge for me.

Top 10 Fall Fragrances 2015

5 perfumes: (great) new wave summer colognes
Earlier this week I talked about old school summer colognes. Today’s focus: the modern equivalent.

Bonus: some of the newer models last a bit longer on skin than the classics.
I’ve listed my picks in order of release date. Do add your own picks in the comments!
