The Scent Train: June 2011
http://thescenttrain.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 29 June 2011. My Big Fat Gypsy Perfume Industry. Last night, BBC4 aired the first instalment in its new three-part series on the perfume industry. Peter was unable to watch so I quickly posted a short review on his Facebook page as soon as the show had finished. It read: ". Goodness, Chandler Burr gets lots of samples. Jean Paul Guerlain is a mad, racist old coot. The rest of the industry is run by dollies who genuinely thought Hilfiger Loud. Fragrance but he loved Thierry Mugler. Parody of th...

The Scent Train: Planet of the Oud: PART ONE
http://thescenttrain.blogspot.com/2011/06/planet-of-oud-part-one.html
Friday, 24 June 2011. Planet of the Oud: PART ONE. I'm loath to admit it but the whole oud explosion passed me by somewhat. And I'm not sure why. I like Yves Saint Laurent. Well enough and the noble rot of agarwood is a particularly pleasing thought but I suppose it was the sheer number of oud scents out there that stumped me, really. I couldn't smell the wood for the trees, so to speak. Then on a recent trip to my local 99p Store. I started with Tom Ford Private Blend Oud Wood. And then almost as soon a...

The Scent Train: REVIEW: 'Un Jardin Sur le Toit' by Hermès
http://thescenttrain.blogspot.com/2011/06/review-un-jardin-sur-le-toit-by-hermes.html
Thursday, 16 June 2011. REVIEW: 'Un Jardin Sur le Toit' by Hermès. Oh dear. My reverence for Mr Jean Claude Ellena. Has been seriously shaken by his latest creation for Hermès. Un Jardin Sur le Toit. I'll happily admit to being a JCE fanboy. It's not that I believe he can do no wrong. I just find myself loving or at the very least appreciating all of his work. His artistry. His light, joyful touch. His whispered evocation of mood or geography. And that's about it. No sign of the promised earthiness&#...

The Scent Train: March 2011
http://thescenttrain.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 23 March 2011. Posted by The Scent Train. Tuesday, 22 March 2011. Oranges, dirty and otherwise. Orange squash, orange Wine Gums, the orange-filled Fry's Chocolate Cremes. It's no wonder then that orange and all things citrus are notes that I have long-enjoyed in my fragrance choices. Orange is such a happy scent. Indeed, Clinique. Created a scent bursting with oranges, in a bright orange flacon with their 1999 Happy For Men. For Editions Frederic Malle. Orange also seems to work for me when it...

The Scent Train: February 2011
http://thescenttrain.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Monday, 28 February 2011. REVIEW: 'Mat; Male' by Masakï Matsushïma. After a couple of hours, the base of green, sappy wood - bamboo, I suppose - with some dusty, fruity florals hanging on in there, is really, really good. Posted by The Scent Train. Friday, 25 February 2011. The Scents of the Bathroom. My only experience of fragrance for men as a child came in the shape of talc. Sandalwood talc. Even now, I remember the absolute joy of opening a new one, normally from St Michael. Soap, of course. Soli...
