So last night I sat down to finally finish that review of Maître Parfumeur et Gantier Route du Vetiver, and couldn't find my sample anywhere. I wasted 45 minutes looking for it. That was seriously all the energy I could summon for perfume.
Anyway, Kevin will have a review of Guerlain Vol de Nuit tomorrow, and if I can finally shake the summer lazies, I'll have a review of Prince 3121 on Friday. Coming next week: Gwen Stefani L, Hermes Kelly Caleche, and maybe a few more jasmine fragrances?
Note: image shows the Tropical Island Hammock. I've been trying to figure out if I could fit this in my living room…
Anyone who is a habitual reader of the various perfume forums and blogs already knows that a little scandal erupted over the past few days. To make a terribly long story short, the idea has been floated that one or more perfume bloggers possibly a) accepted payment for writing favorable reviews and/or b) reviewed perfumes favorably because they had been gifted with free bottles from fragrance companies.
We try not to stray very far from our subject matter around here, but when a member of your family publishes a book (a real book!) that would seem to justify a little subject straying.
Having a busy week and didn't manage to finish a fragrance review yesterday, and not going to manage to review anything today either, sorry!
