I’m a sucker for a really good amber fragrance and Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier‘s Ambre Mythique entranced me so much that I bought a bottle as a Christmas present to myself. Maitre Parfumeur et Gantier (“MPG”) is, in my opinion, a greatly under-appreciated brand that has some of the best ambers on the market.

I thought you might enjoy a light-hearted, escapist game about scenting old Hollywood and modern rock star celebrities. Obviously, much of it is subjective, but I do include what some stars actually wore, when known, whether it was from Creed, Caron, Guerlain, Coty, Chanel, or other houses.
Areej Le Doré (“ALD” or Areej“) is as, some of you know, my favourite artisanal brand. Today, a look at Antiquity (which I went gaga for), War & Peace, a stellar fragrance, and the bright, easy, sunlit Siberian Summer. All three Series 5 fragrances are excellent but, alas, now out of stock due to being limited-edition releases. Still, I thought my old 2019 reviews might be of some value for those who ordered samples or bottles and who might like a detailed analysis thereof.

For perfumistas above a certain age, the name “Obsession” typically carries a host of memories. Maybe you wore it or maybe you were just assaulted by it from every corner. Either way, you’re bound to have some scent memory of the fragrance. Today, I will share with you reviews of three different versions.
