What’s Up In Da City: Prague

What’s Up In Da City: Prague

21/02/201821/02/2018 The Plum Girl3 Comments

The Golden City. Once you visit Prague, it is clear why it is called so. Vltava. (I keep hearing the melody playing softly in my head as I look upon the city, Bedřich Smetana on my mind). And all the bridges of Vltava river in Prague, what a sight! As walk the streets of the… Continue reading What’s Up In Da City: Prague

Love. No matter the date, day of a year or season, love is omnipresent. One word: LOVE. So many meanings, shapes and manifestations! Some love to love, some love only those who are in love with them, some love often, some once in a lifetime. Love can be strong and devouring or sweet and gentle,… Continue reading Scent(s) of Love

  • Les Aneés 25 @andy_tauer 
Continuing my #topten “gone in 2019” list. Limited edition, and all I have is this decant (and went through quite an ordeal to get it). An interesting fragrance, there’s a lot going on in this one. ✨It’s citrusy with a twist of ginger, powdery, slightly woody, a bit smoky and hot and spicy, spinning on a  retro vibe, a polished and shiny carousel that catapults you right back into future. ✨I find peeling it’s layers one by one as they develop on my skin very enjoyable. It’s gone. ✨Good thing is that Tauer Perfumes recently launched a bis, ✨Les Aneés 25 Bis✨ which I haven’t smelled yet. Bis is definitely on my “must try in 2020” list.

  • Bat @zoologistperfumes 🦇
Another one on my #topten I missed in 2019 list: the original Bat 🦇 was discontinued in 2019, and the new version is coming up in 2020🦇(Victor announced it!)
Again, all I have is this sample - enough for writing a review, by all means. Which I’ve never written, thinking naaah, there are already so many reviews of Bat out there, and aaa wat a mistake I make. Never again, I promise. 🦇
I actually loved Bat, I love bats, scent of moist garden soil, damp cave, overripe fruits and dark green vegetation, strange, mineral and airy smelling at the same time, velvety like little baby bats (don’t ask me how I know how baby 🦇 bats smell&feel, just trust me that I do). So here I am, sniffing my wrist and hoping that the new Bat will not fall too far off that weird tree. Reminder to myself: please decide finally which Zoologists you want to write about, new ones are coming out and you are still stuck - with Bat. Did I mention that I love it? 😂

  • Mistpouffers, mysterious booms of unknown origin above fog-covered waterfronts inspired Tomas Hempel, cofounder and perfumer of @storaskuggan to create a #newfragrance launched yesterday that  captures a #vision he couldn't  stop thinking about: a huge unknown #flower covered with strange, white powder, trembling as if being hit by an invisible force, causing the icing on it to fly high up in the air, and then fall slowly and silently to the ground, like mist. This imaginary flower reinterpreted in #fragrance creation is not represented by any specific singular flower note or accord, although #immortelle leads from the beginning. Smoke rises from different sources and exhibits different textures while trails of #mist suggest airiness without a distinctive ozonic feeling. The foggy #atmosphere is close to water but not  #aquatic : nothing is as it seems to be, yet everything in this abstract fragrance has its place. Perfumes are #mysticalmist after all.
Head on over to @cafleurebon for full #review - there’s a draw!
