Update on New Scents

I’ve narrowed down Lieu de Reves to two variations that differ just in three ingredients, and I’m getting feedback to help me choose. I’m leaning toward one and need to see if others agree. I’m still working on Tabac Aurea, and I finally got Gardenia Musk back out after putting it away for over a…

Review of To Dream on Perfume Shrine

hi, i have a question.. where do you sell your perfumes? I am from Philippines and also about to launch my own perfume line this September… Thanks
