This week I have been terribly cold and just smell fragments of the frags I'm wearing. Beside my Frederic Malle testing activity, my belated Guerlain obsession is growing. I really appreciate to wear (even if they don't suit me perfectly) the classics like
Mitsouko and
L'Heure Bleue in different strenghts and longing for apring and
Apres l'Ondee. Even in the current or almost current versions, this frags are by far more original than most of the niche launched today. And also like several of the current Guerlains, for example
Cuir Beluga is caring with its smooth, suedelike texture, which is excellent when having a bad cold. I also have to admit that I like
Shalimar Initial with its elegant iris-patchouli accord and
Shalimar Initial L'Eau, an interersting bergamot and iris combination, perfect for spring.
To further enhance this Guerlaineuphoria I just have to hang around at Monsieur Guerlains blog drooling over
these beauties
Dear Parfumistan
SvaraRaderaI quite agree, many people who obsess over the latest (often worthy) niche releases, would do well to take a little time to try a truly great Guerlain - might I add Jicky and Chamade (relatively recent) to the list?
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
Dear PD
SvaraRaderaYes, and don't forget Nahema! They are also special. Have to wear Chamade when spring arrives. Today it's snowing :-(
