I'm head-over-heels in love with the writing style belonging to the new Times perfume reviewer. Lush, erotic, visceral & vivid, Chandler Burr uses words to describe scents the way Van Gogh used paints to describe a starry night...
Emotive, evocative sentences like "Pomegranate Noir is like a box of truffles with the lid on, sweet bits of darkness, waiting." and "this scent is like spraying a layer of twilight on your body." make me tremble with the pleasure of falling in love with words all over again... the kind of love that stirs the butterflies around in your belly.
