    Hello Andy – I checked back in to your site today to find it all new and flash! Very nice.
    I was inspired to re test some samples having worn L’Air du Desert Marocain on a crisp winter day here collecting firewood and adoring it all over again. Came back to look again at your delicious incense scents – and to read about the new homage as I also love my rose chypree.
    Ilook forward to your newsletters and continue to tell people here in New Zealandof your beautiful scents.
    Kia Ora. Fiona

    Andy, congratulations on this anniversary and my compliments on your blog! It’s by far the most interesting and inspiring perfumer’s blog I know, giving a behind-the-scenes look at your work that never sounds like a marketing story. Keep it up :)

    P.S. the link to your newsletter in this blog post seems to be faulty.

  7. Andy says:

    Great to see you all here. Thank you

    CONGRATULATIONS on 5 years of fabulous blogging fun!
    the new web-site look is very stylish…but I miss seeing your face behind the flowers too!
    I can hardly stop drooling over the very prospect of Carillon Pour un Ange long enough to say that as much as I am lemming a sniff of lily of the valley, it’d be truly a feat to replace Une Rose Chypree as my all time favorite Tauer scent. (I’m on my 3rd bottle and it enjoys a front and center position in my perfume cabinet!) ~D

    Andy
    Congratulations! We’ve have spoken before amongst emails and I ordered your sampler set and everything you’ve made in the sample version. I haven’t decided on a full bottle yet, because I’m scared that I will give you one of my paychecks by just purchase your whole line. :-) I’m still deciding. With that said, I would totally love to come down and work for free. I’ll even pay my own way. I’ll be like a ranch hand just passing through, but instead it will be like a fragrance hand. LOL I wish you much success and another many years of creation.

  154. Margot says:
