Tomorrow my little blog enters its difficult adolescent years. Don’t forget to come back for its birthday and check out the special prize draw I’ve organised for you, which will feature not one, but two prizes!
Until then, here’s something you can use to keep yourselves occupied: a site featuring recordings of the correct pronunciations of various perfume names! Whatever will the blogosphere think of next? Perhaps I ought to send the site’s address to the Guerlain sales assistant in Southampton who thinks that the correct way of saying ‘chypre‘ is ‘shapree’…
Persolaise.

Thanks for the link Persolaise. Always nice to hear the correction pronunciations. I always feel a bit of a plank trying to pronounce some perfume names. I'm sure I often get them wrong.
Looking forward to your giveaway and the future of your blog!
So glad you're here blogging, my friend!
Michael, I shouldn't worry about getting perfume names wrong. I'm sure there are plenty I don't say correctly.
The one that's always intrigued me is Five O'Clock Au Gingembre.
Frida, thanks very much. It's sweet of you to say so 🙂
I absolutely love the idea of being able to hear the correct pronunciation of certain perfumes!What a great idea.
Cherie, it's surprisingly good fun listening to some of those recordings, isn't it?
