DISCLAIMER & CONTACT

I write about things that I want to highlight for some reason which means I do not praise in exchange for money or products. (However, my olfactory curiosity is never-ending and perfume is expensive so I do appreciate an unconditional sample or two.)

For questions, collaboration or other thoughts you are always welcome to share by email to s.z@lefumoir.com
