I'm always looking for a good perfume. I've tried so many, and some of my old favourites are over used...I can smell Chanel and Stella McCartney everywhere I go. I want the perfume I wear to be as the set on which my life is performed. A scented accessory to round off the me I want to portray. For Strange Women is a lovely shop on Etsy, full of handmade perfume oils and solid perfume lockets. The photographs on the site are beautiful and haunting, evoking times gone by. I wasn't sure which of the delectable scents to try first, they all looked inviting, so I ordered three samples: London Fog, Moss & Ivy, and November in a deciduous forest.
The packaging was exquisite; three small vials in a gilded box, with information cards on each scent. Included, as well, was a perfumed ribbon, coated in another scent--Amber. I'm looking forward to trying them all.
London Fog really did smell like a warm, delicious cup full of Earl Grey. It's a lovely scent that can be worn year round.
Moss & Ivy smelled of walking through a forest, on a warm, wet spring day. A perfect spring scent.
November smelled of autumn. Of walking in a deep, dark, wet wood, in a late autumn afternoon. It's like bringing my favourite bits of autumn into my wardrobe. I love it!
Vegan and made with all natural ingredients, these perfumes will be my new go to scents.
