Natural Perfume for the Strange


The Queen was in the Parlour, eating Bread and Honey by Valentine Cameron Prinsep, 1860

I love perfume and I'm a strange woman. I especially love natural perfume. I discovered For Strange Women perfume about two years ago. I first bought a sampler which included scents named November in the Temperate Deciduous Forest and Winter Kitty. The perfumes are synthetic free, hauntingly evocative of the past (as in Victorian times), and absolutely gorgeous. The packaging is wonderful (anything with moss included, I'm all for it). I also like Jill McKeever's philosophy on business. Check out her interesting website and try something new, beautiful, and perhaps a little strange!

Fabulous Friday!


Fabulous music for a Friday. This is such a moving aria, sung by the great Pavarotti. You must listen to it more than once. Enjoy!
