Weekly Scent Round-up [May 14-21]

This was an active blogging week for me. Lots of exciting things have come my way: a slew of Amouage samples, the fulfillment of a Perfumed Court gift certificate from my dear Joanne Elaine of Redolent of Spices blog (an iris and a leather sampler pack), a sample of DSH Perfumes brand new Vert Pour Madame and a much-awaited decant of Guerlain Iris Ganache. I've also been playing around with a lovely box of samples from Liz Zorn, and have an as-yet untouched red velvet baggie of Aroma M scents to explore. There are lots more blogs to be posted, and I'm looking forward to it.

DSH Perfumes Vert Pour Madame

Here's what some of my favorite fragrance bloggers have been up to:

At EauMG, Victoria espouses the beauty of Ormonde Jayne Frangipani, one of their gorgeous watery, tropical florals. Frangipani is not the one I expected her to fall for the hardest, but if perfume can't surprise us sometimes, I suppose nothing can, right?

Tarleisio spins a yarn of how she helped some women she knows appreciate perfume in a new way over at Scent-Less Sensibilites.

Both Birgit at Olfactoria's Travels and Dee at Beauty on the Outside tackle Histoires de Parfums Marquis de Sade inspired perfume, 1740.

Persolaise tells us about a niche perfume line somewhat under the radar, Angela Flanders, and hosts a sample giveaway as well.
