New Year – new beginning – new themes on the blog! 🙂
Introducing Perfume Portraits – the new heading for 2019! And to kick start it – a little duo from Roads.
Roads is an Irish niche perfume company. I have noticed them stocked at Harvey Nichols store in Dundrum Town Center in Dublin. And luckily enough I managed to snatch these babies at a local TK Maxx store for a fraction of a price.
Roads – Graduate 1954. Parfum, launched in 2014.
How would you describe the feeling of oneness?… How would you explain to someone what it feels to be in love?… What scent would be ideal to describe happiness? Or…how would you scent elegance?..
The perfume which can answer all these questions stands just in front of me. Meet Aurora by Charles Wong.
At the end of last year Parfums Dusita invited everyone around the world to participate in the competition to name their newly created fragrance. The perfume is purple in color and is dedicated to the beautiful flower iris.
After a long winter the wait is finally over! 🙂
Today Pissara Umavijani has taken it to Facebook Live to announce the long awaited winner of this fantastic competition. And I am so happy to pass this piece of news to you, too 🙂
The new Parfums Dusita fragrance is called Splendiris! 🙂
Congratulations to the winner – Tal Ron from Israel! 🙂 and to Parfums Dusita Team for choosing a splendid name for their new creation! ❤
The live video recording is available here.

The perfume will be available to purchase online at Parfums Dusita from early May, 2019.

This week I am taking my first steps into Arabic / Oriental scents with Kajal Perfumes Paris.
The Arabic world has fascinated me since my early days because it is so different from everything in the mainland Europe. Sand storms, intense heat, camels…where do I even begin?

It was quite an unusual November and December in relation to perfumes. I kept going through my sample stash, trying out new scents. Some became my favourites instantly, the others I will be hardly coming back to just yet… Unless, a few months later my nose will crave for something new to re-discover… 🙂
