Archer Farrar Perfume Atelier

Loved the most recent episode of @paperbackperfumes.bsky.social interviewing Katrina Cochrane of Archer Farrar (archerfarrar.com.au). What a fascinating perfumer with such an interesting approach to creating fragrance.

Irresponsible fiscal decisions - my blind buying diary.
This is not my usual profile but it is VIVAN WESTWOOD. The cardamon is tops. The rose is almost too sweet. The leather saves it.

I literally cannot find anything about it beyond someone mum wearing and used to being able to buy splash bottle at the chemist. Floral powder puff opening- dry down like a light chamomile. Kinda

In other and mildly related news- who knows ANYTHING about June by Saville. Because it was meant to be very popular and this is the only information I can find

This more specifically for @immortalperfumes.bsky.social - but look what I managed to pick up for $80. All but one were sealed - circa mid 70’s. The fragrance gods smiled upon me.

I did my first perfume making workshop - was with @vitsley.bsky.social who has some wild native and Asian botanicals I haven’t experienced before. I made something β€˜interesting’ with Anise Myrtle, tropical fruits and woods, a really green rose and sparkling incense. The wait is terrible.

I received a lovely gift (no obligation to post) from @immortalperfumes.bsky.social of a variety of samples. I wore Antoinette today and felt like I was in a Sophia Coppola film

Do you like roleplaying games? I do. So let's talk about how you can make scent part of that experience. Jinx from @heroscent.bsky.social and @strangefirefumery.bsky.social offered up a joyous chat that's full of geekery.

I never thought about it that way-- but yeah- good point! Libraries and #books are almost never the wrong answer:)

If you haven't had a chance to have a listen to my chat with Anh from Connection Parfumerie about the weird, wild and wonderful fragrance of poison inspired scents - then give it a whirl. It's all based around a fabulous read from Kat Khavari #perfumesky www.paperbackperfumes.com/episodes/poi...
