Bonkers Is Off To London (Yet Again!) - On A Leather And Lipstick Quest

I realise that that title does sound unintentionally raunchy, but this is due to the unfortunate collision of the title of tomorrow's Perfume Lovers London talk ("An Evening Of Leather"), and my ongoing mission to find more contenders in the Holy Grail high end lipstick quest.

I meant to do a proper blog post before I left, but the past couple of days have been uncharacteristically sociable by my standards. Then today was spent pursuing some work inquiries and catching up on emails. To top things off, I have just inadvertently eaten a Tupperware full of Bombay mix, and my mouth is on fire in a way that is not at all conducive to creative endeavour.

So instead of a blog post, you have ended up with yet another shot of a Marble Arch tube station mural (the third, by my count). This is because Marble Arch is the nearest stop to both Les Senteurs (where I have been three times in the last two months!) and The Cavendish Club, where the Perfume Lovers group meets. I am not sure how high readers' tolerance threshold will prove to be as they are faced in post after post with an apparently endless succession of inverted U-shapes. You may have noticed that they are all subtly different - both in terms of colours and design - but even if you did, it may not be enough to stave off chronic levels of arch-induced ennui. And I should perhaps warn you that there are a couple more designs left in my pictures folder, and then of course on any given visit to London I could always go and take some more - I still don't have the definitive set! - but I promise I shall resist the urge.
