December 20th, 2007 — Aurelien Guichard, Bond No 9, New Releases 2007, andy warhol, incense from Colombina (Marina) @ Perfume-Smellin' Things Perfume Blog
By Marina
I am not going to talk about the inspiration behind Silver Factory and will not analyze the ways in which particular notes make the scent fit the name. Because if you are in a mood to do so and if you look at things at a certain angle, you can convince yourself of anything at all. If you were previously unfamiliar with Pink Sugar and were told that it was called Silver Factory, would

December 19th, 2007 — Bond No 9, Guest Posters, New Releases 2007, Tom from Colombina (Marina) @ Perfume-Smellin' Things Perfume Blog
By Tom
One of the things I used to do as a teen was subscribe to “Interview” magazine. “Interview” back in the day was started by Andy Warhol as “The Crystal Ball Of Pop”, and when I was getting it in the early 80’s was a large-format magazine printed on non-glossy paper with gorgeous covers that looked like a cross between air-brushing and graffiti; impossibly handsome pictures of the

Actually, the quotation marks are not necessary here, because, as far as I am concerned, the latter three are indeed classic scents, since they possess the timeless quality of true

December 6th, 2007 — Guest Posters, Lubin, New Releases 2007, Reissued Scents, Tom, vetiver from Colombina (Marina) @ Perfume-Smellin' Things Perfume Blog
By Tom

November 29th, 2007 — Frapin, Guest Posters, Joint Projects, New Releases 2007, Tom from Colombina (Marina) @ Perfume-Smellin' Things Perfume Blog
…or a Double Dose of Grumpiness
Esprit de Fleurs
Tom:
Esprit de Fleurs is written of as “airy and crystalline”. It is airy, a pleasant bergamotty thing, with a bit of grapefruit and a bare hint of pepper. That accord also has the lasting power of a fruit fly; the scent then morphs into a light woodiness that’s very pleasant.
Marina:
Dry, green floral with a bit of a citrusy sparkle,
