If you did not get the latest newsletter a week ago: now’s the time to register. When I started offering my perfumes in 2005 with Le Maroc pour elle and L’air du désert marocain: I could basically ship them worldwide. Things have changed to a point where I could not send to most places. Yes: […]

Hurray! Cologne du Maghreb is here (back). You can get full size bottles here and the miniature you find here. And here are the details about shipping restrictions.  Finally. The last few months were so busy and a rollercoaster ride with our logistics and sourcing of raw materials. So it took longer than expected and […]

It got chilly. And colorful. Nice! Here in Switzerland, autumn made a sudden and energetic appearance. The temperatures dropped, there was a storm and the trees turned colorful. (when did that happen?….) It is the perfect season for all the warm and cozy offerings, like l’air du désert marocain or the wild strong Lonestar memories. […]

Welcome to 2020! I hope that you had a fabulous start into a fabulous 2020. I sure did, spending some time under a fantastic blue sky in the mountains. Down here in Zurich, there is a thick cloud of fog on top of us. Up there: it is warm and sunny and peaceful. So, I […]

Greetings from Zurich where we survived the heat… Here follows an update about shipping perfumes. We still cannot ship samples or miniatures regularly in Europe. Overseas: we cannot offer samples either. For Europe, we are testing new shipment logistics these days, on selected markets, like Spain and the Netherlands. If this works, we will add […]

Here’s an important news that is somewhat terrible. As of today, we cannot send samples to the world anymore because of stricter implementation of the rules for transport of dangerous goods/perfume in Switzerland. The authorities/Swiss Post started to even send single 1.5 ml samples back. So there you go…. there is no alternative/affordable shipper and […]

Hi I was sick for a while, but now I am back and running and trying to catch up. All projects had to be postponed, though, to Q3, like… September. Ah… well. There is time. And on a side note: this morning I got my certificate again, confirming that I am compliant with the payment […]

Please be aware that orders processing takes longer due to the holidays. We are working as hard as we can to process your orders as soon as possible (with single sample orders being processed a bit slower as they are merely a service and not a business). Having said that: we cannot influence the speed […]

This morning I sold out. Les Années 25 is basically gone. The fragrance is still available as miniature (here is the link) . I made around 500 full size 50 ml bottles (a bit more actually, to compensate for store testers that do not sell). What I kept in my stock to serve my online […]
