...Yep. That says it all." I don't have the gift for beautiful metaphor that some do, and my terse, factual style seems so prosaic next to the work of Ysbrand, Coutureguru, Sherapop, jtd, Silverfire, and others. (Those were the first few who came to mind. The full list is prob 2-3 dozen.) But I'll still...

Your Thoughts on the IFRA?
by Ysbrand | Perfumes & Brands
...I was also thinking of Montsanto while i was reading you, Lilium. By logic there is a lot of what you are saying, just money and monopoly... but thats me, give me a conspiracy theory and i am in! My question is, is it mandatory that every independent perfume house have to subscribe the IFRA regulations to sell their products, please excuse my ignorance.

Your Thoughts on the IFRA?
by Ysbrand | Perfumes & Brands
...Interesting article Cryptic, and great letter, Sherapop. I agree warning is definitely the solution, instead of banning. One thing is restriction if the ingredient is, i dont know, endangered, fr example, that makes sense. But otherwise, put a label, a booklet if neccesary, detailing the ingedients. Anyways, the master touch of a genius perfumer is in the proportions, they all use same ingredients, for not talking about this machines that already tell you what does it contain...

Politics and Perfume ...
by Ysbrand | Off Topic
...Wow that is so wrong, I wonder why, at this stage of his career, he prefers money over such a bad association. One thing is making a perfume for Kim Kardashian, who is only retarded, but a very different one is pleasing the daughter of a dictator. One should have principles...

Tom Ford's Jardin Noir
by Ysbrand | Perfumes & Brands
...Hello everybody! I am so excited about the 4 new launches for the private blend collection of Tom Ford (Ombre de Hyacinth, Jonquille de Nuit, Lys Fume and Cafe Rose) ... Not that i have ever been crazy about the former ones, but this Jardin Noir promises twisted dark florals, and two of them portray hyacinth and daffodils that are my absolutely favourites.Only thing i know so far is that they are out of my price range...unfortunately javascript:emoticon (':cry:')Has anybody sampled them already? what are your first impressions?
