"Another wonderful advantage of this love affair with perfume is you don't have to be faithful to just one, even if you adore each other to death. In perfume, you can cheat very discreetly over and over again, by taking up with another lover, or two, three, four, ten -- a whole string of beloveds if you like!" - John Oakes


A different approach
Fri, 13 Oct 06

Okay. I've decided to take a different approach to writing in this blog. Part of why I haven't been is that I set a standard for myself with regard to how things had to be written, what style I had to use to present them, etc. But the fact is, my own natural "voice" is fairly entertaining, and I do a lot better when I write freeform than when I follow a strict pattern.

From now on, my reviews will continue to include some basic stuff (like the notes in the fragrance), but I'm just going to write my own impressions of it, perhaps with a bit of social observation, perhaps not. I'm just going to write because I like to write, and I love perfumes and I've been restricting myself too much, so much that I wasn't writing at all.

From now on, look for much more "freeform" entries here, including in the reviews. And look for more frequent entries, now that I've decided to lift the restrictions on myself.
