The excitement around this year’s Fragrance Foundation FiFi Awards is starting to heat up! To mark the approach of one of the most important dates on the UK’s scented calendar,…
Ah, the power of peer pressure! A few years ago, you needed quite a few fingers to count the number of brands who said they’d “never do an oud.” Now,…
