Remember when you were a kid and the summer seemed to last forever? Here’s an incontrovertible truth of adulthood: Just when summer seems to have begun, we look up and realize that it’s nearly gone. But fleeting time is also precious time. This is your scent-track for August.
This month, we are beyond excited to bring you three exceptional perfumes—not exceptional simply because we say they are, but because just one month ago, a global panel of renowned judges awarded them one of the highest honors in the industry.
This month, we really have gone a little flower crazy, and our featured artists indulge our madness with a lovely red wildflower from the hills of California; a sparkling, white, gardenia bouquet; and an explosion of flowers with a bit of a twist. Now this is what May should smell like.
Our October 2014 collection, A Change In The Air, reflects the rich variety of fall-perfect scents. It starts with a gorgeous daytime fragrance that echoes the sun and warmth of early fall afternoons and progresses into deeper, richer scents that come alive in the cool night air.
This month's collection celebrates the versatility of the rose in three modern settings. Let go of your preconceptions; these aren't your grandmother's prim, powdery roses, and they aren't all-feminine frills, either.

And then the samples landed on my desk.

Last month's selections were united by warmth. That's because April can be a tricky thing ( she loves me, she loves me not ) . But May doesn't mess around.
