That's terrible news 🫤 So far so good, but I consider myself warned.

Love your ethos James - perfumers support perfumers ❤️👌

I'm easily pleased, just need a majestic sunset once in a while.

I wasn’t going to do this, but @perfumer-pia.bsky.social said I should!

If you've read Basenotes for a number of years, you may have noticed we don't run many big editorial features any more. It's not that I don't want to, it's just the site doesn't bring in enough income for me to [1/2]

An Introduction to Creating Your Own Perfume A comprehensive guide to the art and science of perfumery, designed for independent perfumers, hobbyists, and fragrance enthusiasts who want to create their own perfumes with confidence.

I'm jealous of people just starting to create perfume that now have access to resources like this amazingly designed booklet. James @filigreeandshadow.co , where were you when I started?

Anyways, y'all go purchase this gem right now:

Terrifying.

Miskeo Parfums House Notes Miskeo is a brand I’ve been wanting to try for such a long time, but haven’t had the opportunity until my amateur perfumer buddy Carter (@quiet.emerald on Insta) graciously passed me this discovery se...

Oh thanks so much for this, I really appreciate you taking the time. You are bang on about my approach, and save for a few mentioned materials absent from the formulas (Calone! Never!), you've articulated beautifully the feel of the collection. Thank you!

Today's inspiration comes from these holographic blue and dark cacao truffles from @andersenpetra.bsky.social

It was such a pleasure to meet you, thank you for attending our smelling session.

Very kind of you to say.
Our new collection is almost ready and should be launched towards the end of summer!

In my dry ass fingers is my #sotd from Miskeo. Loving this green number from the set. It’s 🍇 like or maybe a violet. It’s a little retro but stays modern. My early fav from the set.

Miskeo - Brume (2022, Marie-Pierre Blanchette). A study in geranium which is cooled off w/ spruce or juniper & aquatic notes done well. The watery materials modify rather than bluntly hammer as they are oft to do. Minimal, yet done exceptionally well a la Filigree and Shadow. Cool & meditative. 👍

Thank you for the kind words, glad you enjoyed 🤗

Impeccable choice darling 👌

Well, I heard Blusky is the place to be. And what better way to kick off than posting about my bespoke perfume created by Marie @miskeoparfums.bsky.social

So glad I was able to capture that memory for you 💛

Day off wearing A way to say goodbye from my friend James @filigreeandshadow.co . Who knew that smelling like your mom's purse in the 80s would bring me so much comfort?

I'll be roaming the halls of Esxence in two weeks with samples of our current and next collection - hit me up if you want to smell stuff.

Thanks for the spotlight Grant 🤗

The utter delight of a lilac sky at 17h30 - of course it smells like L'Eau d'Hiver from Ellena.

Benzyl salicylate and cis-3 hex would be a tragedy

All salicylates? 😭

Different scent perspectives: Today's scent is Feuille by @miskeoparfums.bsky.social which smells hay-like to me. I have had coriander and fresh green chilli from work colleagues. Fascinated by this, as I can see why they say it, but not how it reads for me at all. Does this happen to other people?

I still remember how much I cried during that scene. Etched in my mind forever.
