I’ve always been obsessed with perfume, but writing about it is no easy task. It’s so tricky to describe something that you can’t see, hear, or touch, but only smell. Their evanescent nature certainly doesn’t help.


I tried my best vividly bring a scent to life, helping us navigate through the myriad of department and niche scents to choose the ones that best suit our tastes and needs.

What Are Fragrances?

Fragrances are complex mixtures of what people in the industry refer to as raw materials. These raw materials can be extracts from natural sources or synthetic raw materials.


Oils are dissolved in a solvent (usually alcohol), to preserve a pleasant concoction of scents. The higher the concentration of oils – the greater the strength of the fragrance. The strength determines how long an application of the fragrance lasts on your skin.
