It’s only our second Monday Mail post for 2017, so again, I hope there are still some readers around who remember the drill! Grimar wants our help finding his perfect indie / niche summer fragrance (he recently bought Amouage Jubilation XXV, and that will cover his winter needs). He can pay up to $300 US. Here is what we know about Grimar:
Grimar is in his mid-20s, and is originally from Central America but currently living in Taiwan…
We haven’t done a Monday Mail post in ages — I hope there are still some old-timers around who remember the drill! Layla wants our help. She’s outgrown all of her “overly fruity floral one dimensional perfumes”, and wants to find something new. She’s willing to splurge for the right fragrance. Here is what we know about Layla:
She’s in her mid 20s, and is originally from the Middle East, now living in New York.
She’s a professional cook, an aspiring freelance writer and a (very) amateur musician.
Her ideal perfume: possibly unisex (or at least, something with some masculine notes), sexy, and woodsy, not so heavy and powerful…
Fabio is back for a fourth round of the Monday Mail, which makes him our best customer ever (here are links to his first, second and third posts). This time, he’s particularly interested in rose, and more specifically, masculine roses. In the 90s, Fabio was a big fan of Ungaro III, which he calls a “dark, male, rotten rose”. He’d love to find something similar, or any rose you think might fit the bill, but, he has not found “oud-ish” roses to his taste. He’d like a rose for a British gentleman…
Sydney wants our help. She has been interested in perfume ever since coming across Dior Dune at a yard sale as a teenager. She’s about to drain her latest bottle, but doesn’t want to replace it: she feels she’s outgrown Dune and wants to expand her horizons. She currently lives in Arkansas so has limited access to fragrance stores, but she’ll be moving to the outskirts of Paris soon. She’d like some recommendations so she can build a list of things worth trying (maybe she’ll find a new signature scent, maybe she’ll build a wardrobe). And if any Paris perfumistas are interested in contacting her, she’d love to connect with you!

Vanessa wants our help finding her perfect perfume. For years she wore and loved Avon Soft Musk, but they no longer sell it in the US, and the last time Avon released it here as a limited edition, it did not smell the same to her. Vanessa is on a budget and wouldn’t pay more than $40; she’s willing to shop online and has local access to Walgreens, Rite Aid, Wal-Mart, K Mart, TJ Maxx, JC Penny and Dillard’s.
Here is what we know about Vanessa:
Vanessa is in her early 30s and lives in Tennessee.
She works as an adjunct guitar teacher, and teaches in a tiny lesson room in a music store so she can’t wear extremely strong scents.
Vanessa likes patchouli but finds that those around her do not…
