The (Blind) Smell Test at WWD : Update
Another update on The Smell Test series from Women’s Wear Daily is in order. As I mentioned in my previous posts, the goal is to blind test recent launches and offer anonymous opinions. All ten judges, myself included, receive fragrances in plain lab bottles, marked only by number, smell at their leisure and offer a rating from 1 to 10. WWD is one of the leading and most influential fashion and beauty publications, and it’s a great platform for such a project.
The latest perfumes tested were as follows:
Aedes de Venustas Palissandre d’Or
Editions de Parfums Frédéric Malle Cologne Indélébile
The Smell Test feature is available without subscription.
My personal favorite from this batch was Florabellio, a quirky, strange thing but quite compelling.
