What are your recent perfume obsessions and why (if you know)?
I hated Delina when I first tried it, then became obsessed with it. Because of the rhubarb note. The other Delinas do not work unless I add Hermes Rhubarbe (which is fresh and zingy and wonderful).
Cirque du Soleil -- this is an extremely high quality gourmand. It is very gourmand, as much as Cheirosa 71 and then some. I love how it smells of salt, butter, caramel and popcorn. I didn't like it at first, and then I couldn't put it down.
Cheirosa 71. I know, it's a little embarrassing.
Phlur Tangerine Boy. Because it smells like fresh tangerines, and I love that smell.
Original Opium vintage EDT. Because memories. Also, because it's a complex, long-lasting ambery oriental, and I've never smelled anything so divine.
Tom Ford's Lost Cherry. Because this was the first cherry perfume I've ever smelled (though definitely not the last), and because there's something beyond the cherry & almond notes on top that kept me coming back. Not sure what it was, but no niche cherry scent has yet to dethrone Lost Cherry for me.
None of the above obsessions lasted. I keep coming back to my regular rotation of Cuir Beluga, Coromandel, Spiritueuse Double Vanille, Hermes Sur le Nil, Roja 51 & Dyptique L'eau Papier. Those are my go-to scents. But I've never been obsessed with any of them.
