4160 Tuesdays - a blog about life and perfume

If we live until we're 80, we have exactly 4160 Tuesdays.The 4160Tuesdays projects started as mindful observation, exploration and mixing it all up and having good ideas. Then, after a year the best idea that came out of it was that I combine my music, French, maths and 14 years of writing about cosmetics and turn into an indie perfumer. So now 4160Tuesday Ltd is a perfumery, and this is what's happening in my world of scent and other things.
