Esprit De Tigre / Spirit Of The Tiger by Heeley, 200

Smoky wood, camphorous mint, and some spice. The resemblance to Tiger Balm is apparent but Esprit du Tigre is softer, smoother, and altogether more wearable. However, it's not something that I...

I didn't like this scent at first. I found it amateurish and a bit redundant. I gave my sample away to a buddy that's a womanizer. End of story. I walk into Scent Bar looking for Wode by...

I'm looking for some kind of fragrance holder for my bottles. Something that would sit on my dresser maybe. I would like it to be able to hold 20 bottles and maybe even rotate like a modern spice rack. Anyone have any ideas on where to get one of these?

If you want to make the most of out the longevity of your scents, I would recommend storing them in a closet or some place that they are protected from heat and light.

mrclmind is right on about storing fragrances. Although it's nice to have them 'displayed,' mine stay in the original boxes in a cool, dark closet. Some of them have lasted me 30+ years because they have never seen "the light of day." In retrospect, I would choose what I want to wear each day from my dark, cool closet if you want your fragrance collection to retain it's integrity. I have been doing this for decades, and it has worked for me. Good/the best advice.
