  • SR_A presents: Colonia — A Subtle Repositioning

    SR_A presents: Colonia — A Subtle Repositioning

    A fragrance as old as time. At least that’s what some may think, with the golden yellow flacon and conical bottle silhouette a mainstay for as long as many can remember. It’s a symbol of daydreams, wealth, success, Italian Summers and free flowing linen. It’s the scent of the sun descending into the sea after…

  • D’OTTO — Artistic Fragrance

    D’OTTO — Artistic Fragrance

    Embracing the notion of fragrance as a liquid artform rather than a trivial embellishment is not necessarily a new concept, but in that pursuit there are indeed many, many levels of accomplishment. Italian fragrance brand D’OTTO are a new arrival, but certainly no pretenders, ticking pretty much every box you can as a fragrance brand.…

  • Car Diffuser — by Acqua di Parma + Poltrona Frau

    Car Diffuser — by Acqua di Parma + Poltrona Frau

    It’s hard to get excited by the car fragrance options on the marketplace. Just as your choice in fragrance is seen as an extension of self, so is your choice of car, and as such it comes as great surprise to me that there has been such a dearth of options in the car fragrance…

  • Niceties — gloved by Tom Daxon

  • REEDITION | BYREDO UNNAMED

    REEDITION | BYREDO UNNAMED

    It was 2016 when Ben Goram decided to give his minimal aesthetic fragrance line an even more minimal aesthetic by leaving the name off the bottle. The concept was that without the preordained name, BYREDO customers were able to form their own associations with the scent and name it in a way that is reflective…

  • LUMINOUS | Cheeky Smile by JUSBOX

    LUMINOUS | Cheeky Smile by JUSBOX

    As far as I’m concerned, fragrance is an artform, a form of expression that transcends the traditional; the fourth dimension I call it, invisible and intangible, yet pertinent. Fragrance has the ability to convey a personality, a mood, a brand message and most importantly— your taste. Used correctly, fragrance is essentially an extension of self.…

  • REIMAGINED | BLACKBIRD INCENSE

    REIMAGINED | BLACKBIRD INCENSE

    Incense has always been an intriguing type of fragrance to me mainly due to its unique characteristics and ‘tone’ of smell. In its pure incense format, the dense tangibility of scent has seen incense used as an accompaniment for pious ceremony, but the personality of incense goes far beyond the format. Any fan of the…

  • Sandalwood & Clove by Pall Mall Barbers

    Sandalwood & Clove by Pall Mall Barbers

    When you hear the word “Classic” used it is often a sign of true class, quality craftsmanship and longevity. When the term is used regarding fragrance however, the first thing that comes to mind is “dated” or “a dad’s fragrance”. That said, when describing this new scent from Pall Mall Barbers, it’s hard to use any other…
