My perfumes are those of the flowers I grow, mostly Old Garden roses, and the not so delightful eau-de-goat, which we raise here on the farm. I ordered samples of 1, 3, 5 & 7 and they arrived today - FREE! I had also wandered over to Perfume Lab when ordering from Art of Perfumery to try their perfume creator - ordered a rose, amber, jasmine, vanilla, aldehyde , oriental blend, and that arrived as well. I over enthusiastically sprayed myself with dabs of each - elbows, wrists, & neck, so have no idea which is which - but I smell wonderful , and my husband noticed as he passed by the computer. He doesn't usually like the perfumes I wear, except for Poeme, which he adores but can never explain why - will go back and systematically test each one starting tomorrow. I really don't care about bottles, names or labels - it's all in the scents - and since I don't waste my time growing scentless roses, any perfume that can't compete with one of my rugosas or Kazanlik (the damask from Bulgaria used in attar of rose) will not get worn. I will go back to lurking. I enjoy this site immensely, especially during winter months when I have nothing in bloom. I will de-lurk to share my nose opinions on the numbered vials.

First of all, thank you all for your comments and your interest in our range. I just want to clarify one point – shipping on samples, for your first sample order of each fragrance, is free to the US and worldwide, not just in the EU. Thanks again, especially for the orders we’ve received. We can’t wait to hear what you think of the fragrances. This is Peter Milsted, CEO of Art of Perfumery.

But -- admittedly -- the number of perfume consumers who care about the name of the nose must be rather small?

Parfumerie Generale did both a number & a name, which is preferable I guess. The packaging I don't care so much about so long as the juice is fabulous.

It does seem strange too that they are unwilling to say who these perfumers are. Surely, if they are in the same league as the creators for Malle and Le Labo, it would be to the companies benefit to say who they were.

Old! I guess they don't want to err by coming up with an embarrassing name, but the minimalism of no names just leaves nothing for the mind to grab hold of. And then the packaging. It's so...shampoo. OK, now I'm waiting for someone to smell them and tell me if the juice transcends the outward lack of imagination. I agree that the number thing is old. Old!
