Armani’s Stronger with You line has my full attention
My coworker walked past me, and whatever I was doing in the moment was no longer important. “What fragrance are you wearing?” He smelled slightly sweet but still masculine.

Prepping for chillier weather with Velvet by Commodity
It’s getting chillier outside. It officially feels like fall, finally. My nose is craving scents that scream the season, something darker, smokier, cozier.

Smelling By the Fireplace
I had a coworker once, who I didn’t care for, but I didn’t mind so much when he was around because smelled amazing. So I would always ask, “Why do you smell so good?” And the answer was always the same: By the Fireplace by Maison Margiela. Because of the name, I had always assumed…

Give Amber Musk by Aerin the perfume love it deserves
Something about it is alluring from first spray. I can’t even pretend to start this review of impartially, so let’s make this quick. I really like Aerin’s Amber Musk Eau de Parfum. It is so very ambery, as you might expect from the straight to the point naming. But there is also notes of rose…
