Grant Osborne, the creative force behind Basenotes.net, one of the top perfume sites celebrating its 10th year this year, had a fabulous breakthrough idea in which you're all invited: Can 35,000 Fragrance Connoisseurs Collectively Create a Winning Fragrance? To that end they organised the Basenotes Venture.
Basenotes.net have joined forces with internationally renowned fragrance house, CPL Aromas, and introduced a unique new project allowing members of the public, as well as registered users, to collectively submit fragrance briefs and work alongside three highly respected perfumers in the creation of three new fragrances. Offering various levels of interaction, this project provides a rare insight behind the scenes into the way the industry creates and produces fragrances. For full details of how to sample, evaluate and direct the three fragrances, as well as a booking page for an exclusive interactive teach-in at CPL's incredible facility on February 4th 2010 visit http://www.basenotes.net/content/12
If you're not a Basenotes member, I strongly advise to become one, it's absolutely free.

London, England July 30, 2009 -- basenotes.net has been the destination for fragrance enthusiasts and industry professionals for ten years. Now all of the news, consumer reviews, award-winning editorial and interviews with top industry names will be available in a print magazine. There will also be completely original regular features that will be exclusive to the magazine.
Basenotes International Fragrance Quarterly The magazine will published on a quarterly basis at a cover price of $6 an issue and will be available via online subscriptions from http://www.basenotesmagazine.com/.
Site founder Grant Osborne says: "For a long time now people have been asking why there is not a magazine for fragrance lovers. You can find many magazines for such a wide variety of hobbies these days yet still nothing for the fragrance enthusiast. We have 20,000 visitors every day so we know that there is interest and we thought we could use the experience and relationships that we have cultivated over the past decade to bring a lively and dedicated magazine to the consumers and industry people that have been such loyal users of the site."
