- Episode 24 of Love At First Scent
This was a Facebook Live broadcast streamed on Friday 21st December 2018. Unscripted. Unedited*. Unrehearsed.
The perfumes covered in this episode were:
- Opus XI from Amouage (at the start of the video)
- Impression Cedarwood Heart from Ostens (at the 18:00 minute mark)
- Cuir Celeste from Ex Nihilo (at the 42:50 minute mark)
and the classic scent was
- Onda from Vero Profumo, in order to mark the sad passing of Vero Kern (at the 33:30 minute mark)
---
Here's the blotter update:
- the Amouage remains wonderful, ablaze with flames that are somehow both powerful and tender
- the Ostens has perhaps lost some of its more intriguing qualities, but it displays enough of an interplay between the greens and the woods to keep it compelling
- the Ex Nihilo isn't quite as faint as I'd feared it might be; an admirably delicate - yet present - piece of work from Quentin Bisch
- and Onda is all-dominant, all-powerful, all-majestic; a one-of-a-kind masterpiece; it's so sad to think we'll never have anything from Vero again.
[* Unfortunately, the gremlins struck again and the video that was originally streamed has been lost. I've had to upload a slightly edited version, which is better than having nothing, I suppose.]

An hour with you, Persolaise, ephemerates as precipitously as an eau de cologne 😭
HRH Well, nobody’s ever put it quite like that before. Thank you... I think 😂
@@Persolaise Nooo! I didn't mean that time spent watching you was insubstantial, but that it goes by too fast; that I'd love it if your videos were 24 hours long instead of a mere hour 😂
HRH 😂Don’t worry, I got you. But 24 hours *might* just be pushing it...
I’ve been doing a deep dive on Ostens and this video from the archives helped usher in a bottle of Cedarwood Heart into my collection. It’s divine. Thank you for your videos!
I'm so pleased to read this -- thank you.
It’s Christmas on December 22nd!!! 🎄 🎁 Thank you for posting during the hectic holiday season. 🙏 Wishing you & yours a wonderful holiday & a Happy New Year! ❤️
Ha! That's very sweet, thank you :-) And thanks so much for watching. All my best wishes to you too.

michael oles Thanks very much for watching 😊
Great video I have 2 bottles of opus xi 100ml & 50ml really good juice 👍😎
Wow, you’re obviously a fan!
Thank you so much for watching 😊
"Like" for correct pronunciation and a brave review for Opus 11
Thanks very much for watching 😊
Oh no, Ostens, another very interesting brand. I should stop watching all the previous episodes now! 😄 I either can't stand the mention of performance, when it comes to perfumes. Have read your take on this a few days ago, when I was searching for reviews on Aqua Allegoria Bergamote Calabria and 2 years ago, I was so annoyed by everyone talking about performance, that I wrote a blog on this. These words usually appear in bulk: performance, compliments, batchcodes, and a few words, that I don't want to mention 😑
Yes - I’m glad we agree about the whole ‘performance’ issue!
And Ostens is extremely interesting 😊
Please can you review opus x amouage thanks
Hi John and thanks for watching. I’ve reviewed Opus X over on my blog. Please see this link: persolaise.com/2016/03/persolaise-review-opus-x-from-amouage.html
@@Persolaise thank you very much sir
John Doe 😊
Brilliant review of Amouage Opus XI. Your fake news information regarding this aroma as the impetus for the creation of this fragrance sold me. Just bought it - the only one available on ebay. Will report back.
M. S. BitEth Oh, thanks for letting me know. Now I’m really hoping you’ll like it! Do get back to me 😊
