To participate, please answer these questions. I will randomly draw one winner.

1. Please suggest a new perfume to John. “I hope that La Myrrhe will find a good new home. For me, the big project now is to find a new perfume for my partner of many years. He likes woods, spices and citrus. His favorite fragrances are colognes like Guerlain, Atelier Cologne, Christian Dior, but he also likes Diptyque Tam Dao and Frédéric Malle L’Eau d’Hiver. He’s also been helping himself to my bottle of Serge Lutens Cuir Mauresque, so you can tell that his tastes are all over the place. I would appreciate some guidance from this amazing community. Thank you in advance.”

To participate, please answer these questions. I will randomly draw one winner.

1. Please suggest a new perfume to Carla. “My children left for college, I moved to a new house and I’m starting a new job this fall. Lots of new things. I would like a new perfume to mark this transition for me. I like woods and spices, but nothing too sweet or heavy. I wore Diptyque Tam Dao for many years, but it’s been reformulated and no longer smells the same. Thank you for your recommendations.”

Today have a generous giveaway courtesy of Bois de Jasmin’s reader Lori. She would like to give away a nearly full bottle of L’Artisan Parfumeur Mimosa Pour Moi, 3.4oz (100ml). She can send his package anywhere, as long as the receiver assumes all responsibility for customs formalities.

Lori likes floral fragrances, but she doesn’t find that Mimosa Pour Moi is for her. “It was a gift from a dear friend and I kept it for a couple of years, but now I feel that it needs a new home and someone who will give it love. I would rather find something else for myself.”

We are not responsible for leaks or damage during transit, customs fees, or for lost packages.

To participate, please answer these questions. I will randomly draw one winner.

1. Please suggest a new perfume to Lori. “I like florals, but I have too many of them. Do you have a recommendation for a woody fragrance that a floral love would enjoy?”
3. May I contact you via email to notify you of your win and share your email with Lori?

Our Ukraine fundraiser is now closed. Thought Group Chile and I are grateful for your generous contributions that allowed us to raise almost $5000. Cristián Wittig, the director of the group, will explain how these funds will be used to rebuild devastated Ukrainian cities.

“Thank you very much indeed for your generous and valuable donation and contribution to our cause. With your contribution we were able to continue developing the final part of our architectural proposals for the Memorial of the Civilian Victims of the Massacre in Irpin and Bucha, the New Public Library of Irpin, which, as you know, were awarded and selected to be built as soon as possible. Likewise, your help also allowed us to develop our proposal for the New House of Culture in Ivanivka, Chernihiv, which was officially presented to its authorities, being received with much gratitude, emotion and impression for the seriousness and quality of the proposal developed, and we obtained their approval and commitment to be built, as soon as possible, since it collects and reflects much of the essence of that local community, its requirements and desires for modernity and the future.

In parallel, as you may know, we are moving forward with the other conceptual architecture proposals commissioned by the City of Irpin (3 additional projects) and the City of Chernihiv (4 additional projects). As you can see, your contributions and those that will come in the future are absolutely essential in order to continue this extraordinary work of architecture for the reconstruction of Ukraine. We will remain in active contact to inform you of our progress.”

Now onto the winners of the contest.
