The
stealthy one:
You by Glossier
Glossier You
couldn’t be more on-brand if it tried. The olfactory equivalent of those my-skin-but-better-enhancers
– Guerlain’s Blurring active base is a current favorite -- that can make you
hashtag #NoFilter with a straight face. I call them aura boosters. Plausible
deniability perfumes. There’s just something about the limpidity of ambrette,
the pastel tenderness of musk and earthy moistness of iris and violet that
suits this wet, blustery Paris spring.
The arty
one:
Elevator Music by Off-White x Byredo
This is plausible olfactory deniability played as concept:
scent as unobtrusive background hum. Ben Gorham and Virgil Abloh presented it
in Paris along with an installation by Carsten Höller, an artist who uses
smells in some of his pieces (but not here). Elevator Music is not only a collab’ on a capsule colleciton: “the
project attempts to define the least amount of information needed to understand
a product’s context and background”. That said, the scent itself is lovely, a
water-gorged earth and violet note with a faint, singed-wood aftertaste.
Combined with the name, it conjures a metal box filled with the sounds/smells –
smounds. -- of mid-March forest. Just close your eyes, dear. It’ll be all
right.
The
chypre one:
Le Cri de la Lumière by
Parfum d’Empire
This one was in my last top 10, but it’s still in the
rotation. And it’s made me realize that the ambrette-iris-musk accords that are
having such a moment -- I had no trouble at all listing half a dozen new ones
in a couple of minutes are actually fruity chypre structures. A fruity top
note? Peary ambrette, especially bolstered with rose, fit the bill. Musk plays
the role of the fleshy amber accords skewered upright by a woody vertical axis –
iris. Great olfactory families never disappear: they just shift and drift on
the olfactory map. And if you look well enough, you can tease out strands of Femme DNA, via Féminité du Bois.
The lush
one:
Niral by Neela Vermeire
Créations
Bertrand Duchaufour couldn’t do wussy if he tried.
Neela Vermeire never asks him to. With Niral,
Mr. D. takes a break from the boozy woods his clients can’t seem to get enough
of, and adds a lush variation to the iris and rose series he kicked off with Traversée du Bosphore. Here it is Indian
tussar silk that is evoked rather than Turkish delight. The scent has the heft
and variegated sheen to match its inspiration.
The
bohemian one:
Sur la Peau by Diptyque
So it turns out Olivier Pescheux has turned me on to
musk. It’s never been my favorite olfactory theme, but the curry-green
weirdness of angelica and the rootiness of carrot and iris give Sur la peau an earth-mama,
back-to-nature vibe befitting a tribute to 1968, for Diptyques 50th
anniversary as a perfume house.
The sexy
one:
À ce soir by Pont des Arts
Bertrand Duchaufour calls it a vanilla blossom, but to
me, it brings together three scents that were summarily ejected from the
L’Artisan / Penhaligon’s catalogue. Havana Vanille’s fresh tobacco leaf
and rum chica-boom sensuousness, matched by the hay, honey and pollen-dusted
daffodil of Ostara (though the green here is more sap than hyacinth), with
a dash of Amaranthine’s lush ylang-ylang. It’s pretty much got my heart
in a love-lock. Who knew I’d fall for vanilla?
The glam
one:
Bloom by Gucci
No true Love Witch should be without her fresh batch
of tuberose. In Alberto Morillas’ delightfully neo-90s Gucci Bloom, the bitchiest flower of the
perfumer’s organ engages in a spot of bondage with the Rangoon Creeper.
The
bubbly one:
Oak moss shower gel by
Arket
The bath and body line by H&M’s upmarket brand
Arket kicked off with Vetiver and Oak moss, bless their Scandi-chic
hearts. Signed by Jérôme Épinette of Robertet and Byredo fame, the
brine-tinged, water-gorged Oak moss shower
gel leaves you smelling like you’re about to be foraged and locavored at René
Redzepi’s Noma 2.0.
The bitchy
one:
Damn Rebel Witches by Reek
There’s something exhilarating about this scent, and
it’s not just the gin, blood, peat and smoke brew whipped up by indie perfumer
Sarah McCartney for Sara and Molly Sheridan, the mother and daughter team who
founded Reek. And it isn’t just because the artisan, feminist, vegan,
queer-friendly and cruelty free Edinburgh-based brand ticks all the right
boxes. It’s the sheer fun and energy of it all. It’s the laying claim to bitches
and witches, to dirty hands, to cheeky stickers, and stretch marks and tats and
the shriek of Reek. I am totally getting that Bitches Unite tee-shirt. And I’m
seriously considering flying to Edinburgh to get it. The witches have promised
me a reeky, brilliantly bitchy good time.

I always enjoy reading your lists! Wish more snow on the way, Spring is being finicky here in the Northeast part of the USA. Lemming that Bitches Unite t-shirt. They have worldwide shipping it says...
RépondreSupprimerThanks! That reminds me I should really put that order in for the tee. I'll be seeing the perfumer, Sarah McCartney, in London for the Art + Olfaction awards so I can congratulate her in person for Damn Rebel Witches. Which should definitely be a teeshirt too.
RépondreSupprimerAlways a pleasure to "hear" your voice again Denyse!
RépondreSupprimerHere in Houston our spring feels like a quick exhale. The past two days being an anomaly, it's been steadly around 75 F.
I've been performing the cliched task of learning all the Guerlain classic. Since finding some exhilarating Chamade EdT and some Chant d'Aromes parfum, I wanted to see what these dames are up to now. I'm particularly smitten with Chamade, which is a bit of a cliche in spring. It gets very little love, but I adore Idylle EdP too. I'm of course champing at the bit to find some of the discontinued parfum....
I'm always intrigued by Mr. Duchaufour's creations. Not only is Dzongkha one of my all-time favorites (top ten, easily) but his much-lamemted Ostara has necessitated getting a few extra bottles.
I've been dousing myself in my Hermessences, Iris Ukiyoe in particular. Ellena's lighter creations bring to mind the ringing of a bell to calm one's mind. When I want a bit more oomph, his Jour d'Hermes parfum lasts all night, and practically wafts from my collar.
Anyway, I've practically written as much as you! Have a wonderful week!
Hey Eric, thank you for your post! Chamade is a marvel. It's one of the few fragrances Annick Menardo wears outside of work, and the woman's got an unerring nose. Idylle got dissed when it came out in the midst of a Wasser backlash led by 1000 fragrances. But it's been reassessed since by the French bloggers who founded the Olfactorama awards... As for Ostara, it's a shame Penhaligon's killed it along with Amaranthine. Being a perfume lover is certainly quite the life lesson in letting go, isn't it? But if Pont des Arts makes it States-side, do give it a sniff. And have a lovely week too.
SupprimerBonjour Denyse!
RépondreSupprimerI realized that I've been reading your blog for a long time (your review of Songes sparked a passion for perfume that hasn't left me since) and never wrote a comment. So here I go! I'm always awaiting your seasonal top 10 with impatience. The fragrances that I love most seem to also be amongst your favorite and your suggestions have often lead me to amazing discoveries. I read your description of À ce soir and knew I needed to try it, especially since I'm still heartbroken about the discontinuation of Havana vanille! Pont des arts were generous enough to send me samples here in Québec. As soon as they deliver to Canada, I will buy a full bottle. It is so beautiful! Merci infiniment pour toutes les magnifiques découvertes que vous m'avez fait vivre au courant de la dernière décennie et au plaisir de vous lire à l'été!
Émilie
Émilie, I'm so happy I've helped you discover a new fragrance love -- and glad Pont des Arts sent a sample. It isn't that easy to get smaller niche brands in Québec... Hope they make it there! Et ravie de faire la connaissance d'une compatriote qui partage mes goûts!

RépondreSupprimerTips on how do mobile games make money!
RépondreSupprimerAlthough mobile gaming has only been around for a short time, it has already made a significant impact on the entertainment industry. The first mobile games were created in the early 2000s, but it wasn't until 2009 that Apple launched its App Store for iPhone that they truly took off. At that time, mobile gaming had surpassed console and PC gaming in terms of revenue, and was even more profitable than both. To begin with, mobile games are popular because they are convenient to play: they can be played anywhere, at any time. Because of the growth of app shops like Apple's App Store and Google Play, they're also simple to create and distribute. Check this list here!
