6 thoughts on ““We Get What We Ask For” – An Interview With Andy Tauer (part 2)

  1. I've enjoyed reading both these interview posts – my inner market researcher particularly appreciated the graph! I will put my hand up and say that I am definitely the demographic for Tauer Perfumes' current 'softer' phase, and am in fact limbering up to a purchase of PHI Rose de Kandahar when it comes back into production (rose is also a perennial favourite in this corner).

    I have had occasion to smell the JAR gardenia scent without knowing what it was – it is of course the protocol in store to sample their line under carefully orchestrated conditions. I said it smelled like blue cheese, which the gentleman said was interesting for a Brit. Some time later Freddie of Smellythoughts gave me a smidge of the JAR gardenia scent to try, and the floral note did emerge as the perfume wore on – pretty spectacular as I recall. But this is all to say that when I catch up with Sotto La Luna I am expecting a bit of a 'werr' factor, on account of the shapeshifting nature of the flower itself, and also because Andy typically gives his compositions a bit of a twist to boot.

I love hearing from my readers, so please feel free to write a comment or ask a question.
