| MAKING SCENTS |
Today I just have to share this awesome website. While it may interest women more than men, a very smart man will earn big brownie points by paying attention here! Oh, all right – before I go on, I’ll explain it to you. OK, on to the Ramble. I met one of the perfume conspirators a few years ago when I purchased a few decants from her ebay storefront. Being in a small town area, I would have to drive an hour or more just to get to a cologne store to smell the scent on a test strip. And, as we all know, just because we like (or don’t) like it on a test strip, that doesn’t mean it will mix with our skin. We have to try it on ourselves. One bottle, I was glad I only tried a small vial. My friend liked it much better than I did. The other led me to the purchase of a larger bottle later on. So let me introduce you to The Perfumed Court, a wonderful website offering decants. The Perfumed Court specializes in offering samples and decants of an astonishing array of fragrances. I guarantee you, if you’ve ever wanted to try something special, they offer it here. To decant is to spray, pour, or use sterile pipettes to take perfume from its original large bottle and repackage it in a smaller bottle or vial. This is a way to try many fragrances before buying a full bottle. Size varies but you are only purchasing a trial of the perfume you are interested in. The size ranges on this website are anywhere from 1 ml to 30 ml (plus). Here is a portion from their About Us link on their website, www.theperfumedcourt.com: |
| I think we need to hold all cosmetic and beauty companies accountable for lying to us. If we don’t hold them accountable, who will? We’re the ones putting their stuff on our faces, lips, eyes, and lashes. Nothing ticks me off more about this than to discover we’ve been lied to. To that end, I am working with the Agape Ranch Foundation to bring honest and current information to people. The information will be posted here. We will highlight those who go over and above to bring the truth to the consumer (such as www.cosmeticscop.com). We will also bring your links to great places to find products. I will tell you more about this later, as we get the kinks ironed out. |
