I only just this minute discovered you are back. I am SO. GRATEFUL.

Thank goodness you're back. It's bleak out here. Consider this post an over-the-top, massy, fragrant, colorful Flower Bomb of a bouquet to say "Welcome back, we missed you!"

Glad you're back! Would love to hear your thoughts on Maria Candida Gentile and alike. Thank you for your work!

Thanks. Deeply unimpressed by MCG last time I looked, but always willing to change my mind if the facts change. Any suggestions?

I must admit I’m not familiar with the brand myself. I tried only one so far: SIDERIS, the incense one and was thinking about ordering a sample kit. Maybe I need to sniff some more MCG perfumes in a store before spending any money :-)

So happy you are back! You really educated me and I always checked both your books when reading about perfumes on fragrantica! We need people like you, we should never give up make our voice louder!

Welcome back Mr Turin❣️ We live to slay swill, don't we? The fight for creativity over commonality, sense over nonsense continues. Jicky is my signature scent thanks to you. I wore Fate Woman by Amouage without ever having to smell it in advance thanks to your excellent description and review, I am so sad to see its own recent fate. Where may I read your thoughts on this and up to date reviews on something nice to 'replace' it?

for one, am thrilled that you decided to get back into perfume writing! I have been a big fan for many years and the world simply is better for your expertise and judgement about the perfume world. Thank you
