FOMO
they go since the first 3 are relatively coveted. Dior Homme Parfum can be hard to find in the states at least it used to be that way and the other 2 are niche brands so one would think they would go one of 2 routes. Either they will make a clone of something that is very expensive that all collectors want like YSL private line Babycat which is what I had thought in the first place. Or they will make a clone of a niche brand...

A Fusion of Leather and Spices: "Deified Tony Iommi Signed Edition" by XerJoff
a woody, fruity and slightly earthy depth. As part of the "Blends" collection, the new edition follows on from the successful first collaboration between the Italian luxury label and the British guitarist in 2021. Back then, the popular perfume "Tony Iommi Monkey Special" and the exclusive collector's bottle "Tony Iommi Signed Crystal Limited...

2023 Reflections: My deep delve into the world of perfume
starting out. I've really enjoyed my year of going nuts with my perfume deep delve, but I'm ready to slow down the buying and enjoy what I have now. I can fully see why a lot of people see this as a hobby but I prefer to think of it as a passionate pastime. I'd also never label myself as a collector as I enjoy owning and wearing a varied selection of perfumes. Full...

How a little gold bar that recieves so much hate managed to surprise me.
at my collection trying to decide what to wear after taking a recent month long break to reset any nose blind issues i had. That worked an absolute treat by the way! My ability to smell all notes is at its best since i started collecting last year and after getting the horrible virus that us collectors fear the most, and wearing fragrance every day didn't...

Fragrances to cheer you up
section. There are a number of fragrances I could choose with the aforementioned notes, in my collection. However, when I especially need cheering up, I subconsciously reach for Ajmal's Musk Silk Supreme EDP. Ajmal's Musk Silk perfume oil was and still is a hit among attar-loving fragrance collectors. However, it is a crying shame that the Supreme EDP (not toe-to-toe to the perfume oil) never got picked...

Verset parfums, so much more than drugstore pefrumery!
decided to write an article on Verset parfums and I picked two of their thirty perfumes to present,both for men. Verset parfums are perfumes you can only find in pharmacies and their quality and longevity are amazing for their price! I am sure that the niche perfume collectors won't read this article but we do not care. Verset parfums are made of natural essential oils and as products...

The myterious world of OUD to a newb.
that were tied to them. I understood there were vanilla fragrances, citrus etc, but i couldn't tell you which note was what other than i knew CK ONE was very bright, citrusy, energetic and unisex, and that was about the extent of it. The next part i feel will be a familiar road trip to many new collectors of the last 5 years or so as we jump in our van, yes we need a van for all the fragrances...

When is a fragrance collection great?
of a great collection is, at this point in your life and collecting journey? Alas, we reach the end of my ponderings. Can we agree to disagree and laugh about how different people approach life in different ways? And will you understand me if I say that a collection is only great when you, the collector, says it's great. And until you do, 'greatness' will always be that milestone 'just ahead'...

Dupe scents will go on.
the triumph of clones. Besides that, we must admit that it ain't a war between good and evil, the famous authentic and the notorious clone. It is mostly a fact of fragrance business we cannot keep eyes shut at. Universal e-shops like Notino are like guides for the false beginner fragrance collector, and since this kind of e-shops feature reviews of the buyers it is a matter of very short time to discover...

The one that got away: decisions and decluttering
Mayhaps your experience is even more heartbreaking- you decluttered a bottle of perfume that has now been discontinued, and you have no way to repurchase what you now believe should never have left your collection in the first place. Oh the horror! I believe that most fragrance lovers or collectors have come across that one bottle of perfume that they wished they had made...
