Mona di Orio Discontinuations: Waving Good bye
I don't know if writing has the power to change the world, but it might have the power to halt certain small enterprises from pushing product to interested members: Mona di Orio has been steadily producing fragrances that are really unusual and -many of them- beautiful, but after a long deliberation she has decided to stop her original line in favour of focusing on her new one, Les Nombres d'Or (Cuir, Ambre, Musc and recently Vetyver, Vanille and Tubereuse) . Therefore, if you have been a fan of Jabu, Chamarre, Nuit Noire, Amyitis, Lux, Oiro, or Carnation, you should hang on to your bottles. (My friend Gaia has posted reviews of almost the entire house, if you don't know anything about it)

NOOOO! i adore nuit noire...there's nothing else like it on my skin. i fervently wish that this gets reconsidered...?!
ReplyDeleteNo, is the word...I hope that at least Nuit Noire and Carnation continue to be in production. But it sounds unlikely...
ReplyDeleteI was so saddened to hear about this several weeks ago. I truly consider Jabu and Carnation to be masterpieces, and I also love the quirkiness of Amyitis, and to a lesser degree, Nuit Noire.
ReplyDeleteThe new Tubereuse is lovely, but I am definitely mourning the passing of her original line. She is one of my favorite perfumers, and I hope that her business does well in the future.
