Hi there APJ lovers,
We are back from the dead. Welcome to the New APJ!
Welcome Back APJ
We are finally back in business. Thank you to the people who have worked and helped and recreated this wonderful meeting place for fumies, fragrance lovers and perfumistas from around the world. Belinda, Alex and Undina (from Undina’s Looking Glass) all gave time, insight, knowledge and muscle to get us back. Thank you.
It will take some time to get back into our groove and we hope you will bear with us as we implement some change.
Please tell everyone you know that APJ is up again because we lost all our Followers and Subscribers in the hack & changeover. We are really starting again from scratch.
So yes, we will be back to the perfumed chatter ASAP.
We have missed you all.
Portia and the APJ Team

So happy to see APJ back, and many of the commenters who used to comment regularly. Finding this piece of good news on Undina’s blog really was a good start to the summer holidays!
Wearing Amouage Ciel today from a sample given to me by generous Sandra. It’s perfect in the heat, 29C is a lot for us! Houses aren’t constructed to keep the heat out so I love my balcony and the shared garden these days.

So… Cleaning my e-mail box I came to the conclusion that something was missing… I realized I was not getting any of the amazing and funny reviews I used read directly from the newsletter. At first I thought I might have done something wrong… Google was no help at all but Facebook was! I subscribed right back!
Welcome back, looking forward to all the reviews that brightened my days! Cheers! Keep up the good work!
