  • Légère Sprays and Wolf Shirts
    This week, I go off on a tangent about the audacity of people who wear wolf shirts unironically and think they can insult others; review the La Petite Robe Noire Légère spray (Ma Robe Hippie Chic), and go over the best perfumes (so far) of 2021. 
    NOTE: Yes, I said I had 2 stories for Fragrance in the News. Yes, I forgot to read the other one I had so I just have the one this week. I'm human, after all.

    Ya like jazz? If so, you'll LOVE Jazz Club from Maison Margiela's Replica line, which is this week's Scent of the Week.

I'm also discussing a small city in India with a perfume history that starts 200 years BEFORE France's foray into fragrance, and how to tell when your precious juice has expired.
