We’re passionate about perfume, and we love to mix and match it up with gustatory delights. Last weekend, Sniffapalooza came in from the cold with thirty-five other fragrance enthusiasts to celebrate the senses at Back Label Wine Merchants. Co-owner Patrick Watson warmly welcomed us, sharing his extensive knowledge of wine and spirits. Sue Phillips of The Scentarium guided us with perfectly complimentary fragrance blends, and a perfume created especially for this event. Luscious chocolates, provided by Mademoiselle Miel, deliciously completed the pairings.
