In addition to my nail polish addiction, I have a weakness for perfumes. I have quite a selection of bottles of traditional perfumes, eau de parfum, and eau de toilette. I love many of the scents… Thierry Mugler’s Angel, Chanel No.5, and Clean being some of my favorites. However, scent is one of my biggest headache triggers. I can’t wear perfumes often because of it.
Recently I’ve switched to wearing only perfume oils. Black Phoenix Alchemy Labs, Dawn Spencer Hurwitz, and my new favorite, Nocturne Alchemy have some of the best scents I’ve tried.
I had been wearing BPAL’s “The Illustrated Woman” almost exclusively, but it is a limited edition. I wanted to find a scent that would be generally available. Some of my current favorites are DSH’s “Au Lait”, BPAL’s “O”, and NA’s “Alexandria”, “Eternal Alexandria”, “Eternal Egypt”, and “Eternal Cairo”.
