Fragrance Fiends: Past Splits

http://fragrancefiends.blogspot.com/p/past-splits.html

A blog for splitting perfume bottles and feeding lemmings for high-end, niche, and other coveted fragrances. Pictures of some bottles that were split will be posted here. After a split has closed and no more split portions are available, decants in various sizes (typically between 1-8 ml) are available. Decants are priced competitive to larger resellers. If you missed a split, a small decant is a great way to try the fragrance and decide if you'd like to claim a portion next time around. Hermes hermessen...

Still Room in Chypre Rouge (15-20ml) and Bois et Fruits (10-15 ml)! I'll go ahead and send out invoices for just Cuir Mauresque so we can get that bottle since Chypre Rouge is slow to fill :(.

Taking a scientific sniff at the culture of smell. Sunday, May 6, 2012. A Boy and His Rat. It seems like every few months we’re treated to another heart-warming story about scent-detecting service dogs. Lately it’s been dogs for diabetics. You know the drill: Fido alerts one way when Johnnie’s blood sugar is too low, and another way when it’s too high. The latest entry is Ben Ownby. And her Labrador Retriever mix named Shots. Timmy has bladder cancer? Recently published studies report more impressive suc...
