"Hair colour, skin type, personality, dress sense and lifestyle all have an influence on our fragrance style. For redheads, I often recommend an oriental; I've noticed extroverts gravitate towards chypre. But, ultimately, trying a scent on your skin is the best way to find out what suits you."- Perfumer Miller Harris, quoted in the British publication of Elle magazine, December, 2009.
Ha, ha. :) What timing! I am at the moment glued to my wrist (my nose is), I'm falling in love with Aziyade by Parfum d'Empire and here you are with a quote how redheads lean toward orientals. :)
ReplyDeleteIt seems I do...
Dearest Ines, in literature, in art, redheads have been so often depicted as the object of almost-forbidden sexuality. I think the 'forbidden' of the orientals does this justice!
ReplyDeletePS: Although it has to be said that as much as I enjoy romantically musing about hair color & skin tone in regards to perfume I think everyone should wear everything ;)
