Recommend me a Perfume : January 2025

Our “Recommend Me a Perfume” thread is open this week. You can use this space to find perfume recommendations, to share your discoveries and favorite scents, and to ask any questions about scents, aromas and flavors. Or you can just tell us what perfume you are wearing.

I finished teaching my introductory classes on Citrus, Spices and Woods, and the new series will return with Chypre (sold out), Cologne and Florals. My ISIPCA teaching duties are quite heavy this semester, but I will try to add more classes, focusing on fundamental notes. We will revisit spring florals and green accords as well. If you have any other requests, please let me know.

How does it work: 1. Please post your requests or questions as comments here. You can also use this space to ask any fragrance related questions. To receive recommendations that are better tailored to your tastes, you can include details on what you like and don’t like, your signature perfumes, and your budget. And please let us know what you end up sampling. 2. Then please check the thread to see if there are other requests you can answer. Your responses are really valuable for navigating the big and sometimes confusing world of perfume, so let’s help each other!

Recommend Me a Perfume : November 2024

Happy Thanksgiving! This year I have much to be thankful for, despite the tragedies unfolding around me and taking place in the world. I’m back from Ukraine and I’m slowly settling into my routine. I still listen attentively to any low, deep sounds and get startled by the jarring roar of motorbikes. Yet, I also don’t get bothered by the things that used to annoy me. Three months in Ukraine were a life-changing experience. More on that later. For now, let’s talk about perfume and scents.
