I have gone through similar phases on a smaller scale, and in them I feel like I get a glimpse of what will ultimately be "normal" for me, after I've caught up on the older releases that I am not as familiar with. Maybe I'm too cynical, but I think the number of truly amazing or truly terrible releases in a single year isn't enough toAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415795419713091856.post-79165467542278979202011-12-22T15:11:14.603-05:002011-12-22T15:11:14.603-05:00I know exactly how you feel.

And then I got a sample pack from Luckyscent and fell for two of them. <br /><br />I will definitely try this, I love it when perfumers return to older ideas, as long as the quality os high.

Mostly to do with lack of interest in what's going on perfume wise.

I do not think I can adequately express how much your very personal, thoughtful and sensible opinions about perfume have meant to me. I burned out in the 80's on Poison and Oscar. I only just returned to purchasing and reading about perfume. I followed a link to your blog and stayed up nearly all night reading you Katy McReynoldshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09086369021148283362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415795419713091856.post-36672421463918157102011-12-20T10:41:44.086-05:002011-12-20T10:41:44.086-05:00I don't know, Annemariec.

I think, like Abigail, it's less to do with what I own and some kind of over-saturation and more to do with how insipid many modern releases have become. It's hard to get excited by much I've seen lately.<br /><br />In the midst of all this I've been enjoying Amorvero immensely, and with so many recent Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14293853110472146382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-415795419713091856.post-90013580736948547962011-12-20T02:17:35.928-05:002011-12-20T02:17:35.928-05:00Well, I guess you have learned something about you...Well, I guess you have learned something about yourself through this weird experience, and that is surely a good thing. A lot of people go through a slow-down phase, usually after a prolonged buying frenzy that can go on for years. I noticed someone on NST remark the other day that she is going through a slow-down and is enjoying the change of pace, and is making fewer mistakes than in the past. annemariecnoreply@blogger.com
