I&#8217;ve gone from having one real signature scent to a whole collection that I can choose from depending on my mood. As I&#8217;ve been growing my collection I also started to seek out more independents in these areas, and there are so many wonderful ones out there. I think especially with something as personal as this it&#8217;s nice to have something more unique and special, that you&#8217;ll find far less people wearing. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.forstrangewomen.com\/\">For Strange Women<\/a> has been on my radar for a little while now, I&#8217;d been meaning to order some samples to test out for the longest time but the problem was every single one sounded so good that I just couldn&#8217;t decide which to choose! I eventually emailed creator Jill asking for her advice to help my indecisive mind. I told her the types of scents I love (gourmand, woody florals, spicy, warm and unisex) and those I dislike (overly citrusy or clean), and asked her if she could choose me a selection she thought I&#8217;d like. She was so helpful and got it absolutely spot on too, I loved them all and each one is gorgeous in its own right. All of For Strange Women&#8217;s perfumes are also handmade made from only natural ingredients, using the finest quality botanical essences, they are ethically sourced and cruelty free too. <\/p>\n<p>The thing I love most about these perfumes is that they are so much more than just a fragrance. As I opened each one up they evoked memories of seaside walks, crunching through leaves in damp autumn forests and winters by the fire. Scent is such a powerful tool for unlocking past memories and with many of these I felt transported, as if I was right back there at an oddly specific point in my past for a brief instant. The sounds, the sights and the conversations had, like I could almost taste the piping hot tea I was sipping back then and feel the salty sea wind and raindrops on my skin.<\/p>\n<p>I wanted to test each of these out a few times to really see which ones I enjoyed most. As with good perfumes, each melds with your own body chemistry and so evolves into a fragrance that is truly unique to you as you wear it. My initial favourites were <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forstrangewomen.com\/products\/coyote-natural-mens-cologne-oil-unisex-perfume-with-notes-of-bay-patchouli-orange-neroli-wood-musk-for-strange-women-and-men?variant=1027916885\">Coyote<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forstrangewomen.com\/products\/fossil-natural-perfume-oil-scent-of-hot-limestone-dry-minerals-and-seashells-petrified-wood-and-fossilized-amber-for-strange-women?variant=1034783805\">Fossil<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forstrangewomen.com\/products\/astral-projection-natural-perfume-oil-with-lavender-chamomile-clary-sage-bergamot-rose-lemon-verbena-sweet-dreamy-soft-relaxing?variant=1027911009\">Astral Projection<\/a> (I&#8217;ve been using this one to help me fall asleep as it&#8217;s so incredibly relaxing and it seems to give me highly vivid dreams too) but as I&#8217;ve worn each, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forstrangewomen.com\/products\/winter-kitty-natural-perfume-oil-with-vanilla-rose-douglas-fir-snow-fireplace-smoke-amber-vetiver?variant=1027910673\">Winter Kitty<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.forstrangewomen.com\/products\/november-in-the-temperate-deciduous-forest-natural-perfume-oil-with-black-tea-bergamot-mushrooms-forest-floor-wet-soil-dried-leaves?variant=1027913905\">November In The Temperate Deciduous Forest<\/a> have become firm favourites too. Jill does a wonderful job of describing the scent of each, much better than I ever could, so check them out if you&#8217;re curious. Now I just need to decide which of those to buy first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Strange Women Natural Perfume Oil &#038; Solid Perfume Samples Scent is something that I&#8217;ve been growing more and more obsessed with lately, from perfumes to candles and aromatherapy room fragrances.
