Hey Hey Perfume People,
I know that Louis Vuitton and master perfumer Jacques Cavallier-Belletrud (Stella McCartney, Dior’s Addict and Jean Paul Gaultier’s Classic) are still preparing LVs first fragrant offering since the 1930s; so to honour their choice to finally cross to the dark side, also to assuage my need for visual stimulation, and to keep me pumped as the time grows nearer, I am gifting you this lovely mini movie. Hopefully it’ll help keep you in a simmering, speculating, craze of what ifs and how wills.
I am hoping for something beyond gorgeous but will be happy with interesting and beautifully crafted. In my minds nose I smell ink, leather, salt and rue. Ink for the money that it will cost, leather for the historical luggage, salt for my tears of longing and bitter rue for my regret and sadness when it is a lazy fruit-chouli. Please Perfume Goddesses, let it be at least GOOD!
Don’t forget to go enter yesterdays GIVEAWAY and if you want a full review I am Guest Posting over at PerfumePosse about Sweet Water by Liz Cook for One Seed. Please go over and wish me well there, it is still a huge deal to be asked to Guest Post on one of the world’s biggest and most popular frag blogs.
We wish all the best of everything for you, it is out there, all you have to do is go get it.
See you tomorrow.

In your minds nose… Great prophetic description. Sure it will come true less the rue.

Oh, my dear! What an evocative ‘maybe’ description. Seriously. I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. So I did both! LOL! It was charming! ‘Ink for the money it will cost’ snagged me – and it was off to the races. Actually, this sounds like a GREAT combo!!!

I wish LV perfume to be amazing. I don’t mind it to be super-unreasonably-expensive – as long as its quality is in the same proportion to mass market perfumes as their leather goods are.
Well, it won’t happen. But a girl can dream, right?

Dream on Undina. It may even come true…
