The Power Of Perfume
Masks Have Kept Us From Smelling Other Peoples Perfume and Cologne But Not Our Own! Perfume has been one of my small pandemic pleasures because it just makes me feel good! So does the fresh smell of my boyfriends cologne after he showers. (When you're confined in a house together it's good to smell good.)
Like many of you I have my favorite go-to scents that others often comment on when I walk in a room. Fragrance guru Sue Phillips says when that happens, it means that particular scent is working its magic with your personal chemistry.
For more than 40 years, Sue Phillips, one of the world’s most renowned fragrance experts, has created fragrances for brands, and celebrities. Her many credits include senior positions at many of the fragrance industry’s top companies; Elizabeth Arden , Lancome Paris, Burberry, Chloe, Lagerfeld, and Lancaster working on the Davidoff brands and Chopard. At Trish McEvoy, Sue developed her first 3 fragrances. She even created the first ever scent for Tiffany & Co. called TIFFANY which became one of the company’s top sellers and was followed by Tiffany for Men.
Sue Phillips will tell you smell is distinctly linked to the brain and produces 'emotions'. And boy do certain smells bring back memories! Scent, scientists have long known, is the most powerful of the five senses -- and the only one that connects memory, emotion and taste. “Our sense of smell is our most powerful sense after sight,” Sue explains, “but it is the most forgotten and ignored.
Sue's long awaited and much anticipated new book is just out. The Power of Perfume: How to Choose It, Wear it and Enjoy It! can be found in bookstores and on Amazon.
Besides amazing stories (like how the incredible success of Chanel No 5 was actually caused by a mistake), Sue gives timely insight into how certain foods may help bring back smell for those who've lost their sense of smell as a Covid virus side effect.
Great stories too about all the celebrity fragrances she's created and how you can create your own signature fragrance at her “The Scentarium” on the Upper East Side in NYC.

Fragrance Lovers Will Love This Interview Conversation.
PS: My Personal Perfume Picks ? Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue is a fave. I'm also drawn to Chance By Chanel (goes well with my Risk It Or Regret It! attitude). My warm weather drugstore favorite is Jovan Musk with the orange top. And my boyfriend bought me a new perfume recently that's now a huge new favorite - Voce Viva! by Valentino. (Word of mouth? lol )
