I didn’t get to see Aftelier’s old website so I can’t compare to that but I think the current website feels easy to use and navigate. Graphics-wise I’m not sure about the purple text on white background though.

That site’s very easy to navigate and the pictures are great. The antique cases are gorgeous!

I quite like the new site, very sleek and easy to navigate. Loving the color scheme, very in-tune wth the brand.

I always loved the idea of Aftelier and I always wanted to have Tango (you know, I love Tango and I am so curious about this one).
Time to time I would check the website. The new one is just beautiful.
But it is a great idea to remind us of Aftelier this way. The truth is that there is so much going on in niche parfumerie, so much to catch up with, that sometimes you can forget about some if you are not reminded.
So, I’m on, hoping to win and have my sample of Tango!

odonata9 said what I was going to re: master list of all fragrances. Exploring the site is fun and all, but a concise list of what’s available with handy access to detailed descriptions would make me more confident I’m not missing anything.

Other than that it looks great! I love the pendants and the teas and and and… I especially like that there’s info on getting samples in multiple easy-to-find places, plus a handy link to “Add sample to cart” on each product page. I’m pretty sure I will be getting some use out of /that/

There is a wonderfully personal and intimate feel to the Aftelier site, it really seems like the next best thing to visiting the shop. I must say, I’m taken with the antique cases and the solid perfumes, and I am pretty sure I’m going to try the Rose, Sandalwood and Frankincense Face Elixir. Skincare is probably my biggest weakness/sickness. Additionally, Lumiere, Blond Tabac, Perfume de Marac and Shiso must be mine!

I like the site; it has a clear layout, good information and pics, and a range of other products besides just perfume that I adore and are unique (silver flasks and containers from Mexico? SO WANT. Especially the antique silver case with jade top… *sigh) . However, I’ve noticed the site has some dispay problems in Opera 10 (if you click on an item for more info, the text blurb on the next page is partially cut off/obscured and doesn’t display properly until the user chooses to view another pic from the accompanying picture selection), and this is purely imho, but the layout of the site is vaguely reminiscent of some scamware sites, spyware/adware pushing sites, and fradulent merchandise/scam sites I’ve run across oer the years; I think it’s just the way the white space is used as well as the purple bar across the top, or my own personal mood right now. Otherwise, it is a very beautiful, easy to navigate, informative site.
