The latest issue of The Scented Letter – the award-winning magazine of The Perfume Society – contains a piece by yours truly on the current revival of the eau de cologne. With contributions from Christine Nagel, Andy Tauer and Roja Dove, the piece aims to explain why this centuries-old composition is enjoying a resurgence in popularity at this moment in time.
As The Scented Letter is available only to members of The Perfume Society, I can’t reveal much more about the article, except to say that it also includes a run-down of a few of my favourite colognes, some of which I’ve described as follows:
Coiled springs of energy waiting to be unleashed, like scented sprinters soaring towards the finish line.
A feast of citrus blossoms, filled with the hopes, dreams and passions of honeymoon vows.
Clocks slow down. Pulses relax. The globe slips into a siesta gear. And the jolly grapefruit just keeps grinning.
If that’s enough to whet your appetite and you aren’t already a member of the Society, please click here.
