An Ending

Dear Readers and Viewers,

You probably have noticed that I haven’t blogged in a while. Well, I must confess that my interest in writing about fragrances has waned. Of course, I will always wear great colognes and tell people in my life about them. Wearing fragrances is a way of life for me. Since I no longer want to write about scents every day, it makes sense that I stop writing this blog. Therefore, Fragranceman.com will end as of today. I will keep the blog up for an additional six months. You will be able to find great news about fragrances by reading the news feeds on the left side of the blog. Thank you all for supporting Fragranceman.com. I will always love you all.

Hugs and Kisses,

Lawrence Johnson, Jr. aka “The Fragrance Man”

P.S. I will keep blogging. Look out for my new shopping blog in the near future.

"At Last- a New York Oud. The Arabian Nights come to Noho. To mark the 10-year anniversary of Bond No. 9’s headquarters boutique, we had no choice but to unveil our signature scent, Bond No. 9 Perfume Oud, not for a New York neighborhood, but for our NoHo address—a fixed point in the realm of the senses.
