Discovering the real scent of a woman

WHEN it comes to the world of eau de toilette, most Irish men — including this one — remain fairly clueless.

Discovering the real scent of a woman

According to man-Paddy, if a fragrance covers the basics — that is, that it doesn’t make him sneeze or cough, it doesn’t give him a headache and it helps to, shall we say, peak his interest — then it’s a winner.

Luckily, the recently opened Parfumarija in the Westbury Mall in Dublin is here to help. The new perfumery, which resembles a small, minimalist version of Willy Wonka’s laboratory, is the brainchild of perfumer Marija Aslimoska from Macedonia. Marija has lived in Ireland on and off for the last seven years. Her reason for coming here? “A lovely Irish man” she met at a wedding in Oxford some years ago.
