All Good Things Must Come To An End
A huge THANK YOU! to everyone who’s supported retrofragrances.com. Unfortunately, a close relative of mine has been diagnosed with Stage IV cancer. I am the caregiver and will no longer be able to maintain the site. Retrofragrances.com will close permanently on June 28, 2024. Anyone who’s been thinking about downloading “Understanding Perfume: A Beginner’s Guide” should do so now.
How To Download
There’s been some confusion about the download process for this ebook. There’s a “suggested price” section on the download page that reads 1.99 USD, but you can change that by typing in a different price. The lowest purchase price is 0.99 USD. Follow the prompts to complete the secure transaction. Lemon Squeazy makes it easy, lol.
Thank You to everyone who’s already purchased, those who will purchase, and all my regular readers. It really feels good to know that something I’ve written has been helpful to others. As for the site, I can try again later when I have some free time. It’s been fun and a learning experience, but I need to spend as much time as possible with my loved one. I hope you all understand.

eBook
The first step to understanding perfume is to learn about the families they belong to. Perfume families can be drilled down into simple basic categories that can later be expanded upon. This is a complex topic so having a good foundation is crucial.
Fragrance Reviews
Reviews of classic, or classically styled, perfumes and colognes for men and women. Most of the reviewed fragrances were first launched prior to the year 2000.
Fragrance Terms
Perfumery is a broad and complex topic with its own jargon and terminology. It’s always nice to have a reference handy so you don’t have to go searching for info.
