About Me
Fragrance is an integral part of my daily existence. Our existence.
The olfactive senses – unlike taste, sight and hearing – are linked directly to the limbic system. This creates a very powerful connection between scent and emotions & memories.
My preferences are always changing, but Tuberose, Vetiver and Sandalwood are notes that I resonate with very strongly (not necessarily all at the same time) and if I cannot decide what mood I am in, I will gravitate to those.

![[Ad] God and Moon by @maisondelasie is a gourmand woody indulgence that is comforting and warm.
For those heading into cooler seasons this will be a lovely one to spritz on a scarf and soak up the aroma as you venture out in to the brisk air, perhaps on your way to meet with friends to sit sipping coffee in a cozy cafe.
For those of us in warmer climates, it is the perfect complement to a balmy summer evening.
With hints of coffee, plum and honey this has a warming, velvety feel. To me the coffee is more of a feeling than an actual scent, but I think in combination with the fruit it definitely adds some depth.
The honey is surprisingly easy to get along with, I don’t always enjoy a honey note but this is neither too sweet nor animalic.
White florals (Carnation and Gardenia mostly for me, although Jasmine and Tuberose are also named) underpin the gourmand elements to give this fragrance atmosphere - at once earthy and slightly heady...and a little seductive.
God and Moon is unique, though it reads as a fruity gourmand on paper in fact, it is mysterious and spicy, thanks - I think - to the carnation, labdanum and tonka, which are actually quite forward in the wear from the very beginning.
As God and Moon settles into the wear, it becomes sweeter and a little more tart, but it retains its moody and enveloping aesthetic.
I find this to be quite addictive and really enjoyed it even from the first wear.](https://thetopnote.co/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
