Sniffapalooza
We’re floating down from the fragrant cloud of Sniffapalooza Fall Ball! Our scented weekend was jam packed with the discovery of new perfumes, new friends, new ideas, and delicious food! Here are a few highlights of Saturday’s events, in images. Many thanks to Bergdorf Goodman, Henri Bendel, Il Gattopardo, Krigler Perfumery, and Twisted Lily for being part of our incredible weekend! Watch for Sunday highlights, and our Sniffapalooza Fall Ball Lunch Loot Giveaway – coming soon!!
Now that we’ve floated back down to Earth from the fragrant cloud of Sniffapalooza Spring Fling, we’d love to share some of our favorite sights and sounds of the weekend. (Wish we could share the scents too, many of which debuted just for us!) The first recaps popped up on The Examiner & Fragrantica & CaFleureBon, and we’ll share others as they are posted. Meanwhile, take a look at some of the highlights, and watch for our LUNCH LOOT CONTEST, coming soon!
Typical Portuguese neighborhoods have always been the heartbeat of social life. Especially the barbershops. Gentlemen with top hats and impeccable suits ventured out for their daily shaves and local news. Badger brushes, knives and shaving cream were the old tradition, now revived by the fragrances of Antiga Barbeira de Bairro. Luis Pereira presented this new line to us at Barbearia Campos, the oldest barbershop in Lisbon. It’s an amazing place with a tonsorial museum and antique barber instruments. As you can see, the men in our travel group certainly enjoyed their hot towel shaves!
