Interesting post! I just happened on your blog (the musk project brought me here), and I have enjoyed rambling through the archives.
What is your theory regarding the rise or fall of perfume blogs? I'd be interested in your opinion.
I believe it was you that addressed the group at the 2008 Sniffapalooza Fall Ball, which I attended. Your olfactory findings are very interesting, indeed.
Your feistiness is refreshing.

Welcome to the FirstNerve. Hope you enjoy your ramble through the archives. I'd just started blogging when I gave the Sniffapalooza talk you heard.
I see you you've launched your own fragrance blog.
My Smelly Web Index data reveal a few consistently high-flying sites and a mad scramble among those of us with less lofty Alexa rankings.
Solo sites sometimes burn out (long-haul blogging takes stamina) and newly born ones take their place. It takes a while to reach take-off speed, so keep your hand on the throttle. Bon voyage!
