Aftelier Perfumes Sacré Bleu Perfume Review

Press Sample (Unaffiliated Links)

Mandy Aftel, the creative genius who created Aftelier Perfumes, continually creates unparalleled and peerless perfumes, and her latest creation, Sacré Bleu is a stunning example of her creativity. Available as an eau de parfum and a perfume, this fragrance's character is described as, "watery, luminous, honeyed, transcendent, mesmerizing." 

Notes: antique sandalwood, blue lotus, ambergris, boronia, black tea, mimosa, beta ionone, methyl anthranilate. 

There is something incomprehensibly mystical and magical about this aroma. Sacré Bleu opens up with a sweet aromatic sensibility, as though it is a fruity floral incantation. However, as this rare fragrance unfurls against the skin it undergoes a metamorphosis, and the sandalwood and blue lotus deepen the way in which this fragrance articulates its identity. It transforms into a deeper and more mysterious aroma that beckons any gender to luxuriate in its comforting, somehow familiar sensibility. It is rich, warm, alluring, captivating and somehow defies any simple characterization. It is a truly sublime perfume that is sure to hold you captive in the most alluring way imaginable. This is a triumph in perfume making, and Mandy's creative genius is strikingly evident in Sacré Bleu

According to Mandy Aftel,

The inspiration for my Sacré Bleu perfume is the marriage of sacred blue lotus absolute with divine hundred-year-old Mysore sandalwood oil. One of our most precious offerings, Sacré Bleu is luminous, honeyed, transcendent, and mesmerizing. The aroma of blue lotus is watery, but extremely complex and blissful with stone fruit and powdery floral facets. Truly legendary blue lotus was the most important scented plant in ancient Egypt. Rumored to have a psychotropic effect: this extraordinary aquatic plant played a prominent role in mythology and religion.

Over the last hundred years, this soft, sweet and woody Mysore sandalwood oil has aged, like a fine wine, into a smooth, sweet creamy woody aroma of profound richness and depth. Boronia plays a supporting role offering up a mouthwatering combination of aromatic raspberries, apricots, and freesia. Sacré Bleu dries down to the warmth of black tea wrapped around rare ambergris.

About Mandy Aftel's Process,

I started making natural perfumes almost 30 years ago. I create each of my perfumes from the comprehensive collection of strikingly beautiful natural essences that I have assembled over the years from hidden corners of the world. Finding these essences is a quest that I enjoy as much as the act of creating with them. Often I smell a dozen versions of the same oil, searching for one that surpasses all the rest. Some of the essences in my palette are antiques that have aged for many decades, like fine wines.

Everything I make is free from synthetics, parabens, glycols, and petrochemicals. I hand-blend and bottle all my products in small batches in my Berkeley, California studio, and personally attend to every detail of the process in creating every product. I love adding a sense of luxury and well-being to people’s lives.

As the founder of Aftelier Perfumes, I have been hailed as one of the fragrance industry’s “most prolific talents” by Vogue and an 'angel of alchemy' by Vanity Fair, and listed as one of the top seven bespoke perfumers in the world by Forbes. I am an advisor at The Institute for Art and Olfaction, which has created the annual Aftel Award for Handmade Perfume in my honor, and in 2022 honored me with the Septimus Piesse Visionary Award for my lifetime achievements.

Notes: antique sandalwood, blue lotus, ambergris, boronia, black tea, mimosa, beta ionone, methyl anthranilate.
Overall Assessment: What an extraordinary perfume that is captivating, sublime and truly breathtaking. A+

Amazing Gifts for the Cook in Your Life

Purchased & Gift (Affiliate Links)

Whether you are looking to upgrade some of the most used tools in your kitchen, or you are looking to give a gift to a cook, here are a few items that I love and use all of the time when I cook and bake. They are tried and true, and I reach for them all of the time!

John Boos Maple Cutting Boards 1-1/2" Thick (R-Board Series. $94.95 from John Boos, Crate & Barrel, Sur La Table, Williams Sonoma and Amazon): There are many sizes, but I bought the 18"x12"x1-1/2" model. It is solid maple, made in the USA, and made to last a lifetime with proper care. While I have a couple of other wooden cutting boards, I really needed one that was a bit larger, and that is why I opted for this one. I also wanted to invest in a cutting board that was very well made, and that could withstand many years of use without falling apart, and for me a John Boos cutting board was the obvious choice. This was an excellent purchase, and I highly recommend their products!

According to John Boos,

The Maple R-Board Series is the #1 cutting board choice of culinary professionals worldwide. Made of solid North American Maple, these NSF Certified cutting boards are 1-1/2” and are available in 3 various sizes. Each cutting board includes recessed finger grips and is reversible to allow for a food specific cutting surface. Each cutting board is durable enough to withstand constant cutting, chopping, and slicing (with proper care & maintenance.)

Specifications:
  • Thickness: 1-1/2"
  • Northern Hard Rock Maple (NSF Certified)
  • Edge Grain Construction
  • Reversible With Recessed Finger Grips
  • Oil Finish
  • Renewable Sustainable Hardwoods
  • Made In USA
Cleaning Instructions: 
  • Make sure the cutting board surface is free from any food debris, dirt, oil, or grease.
  • Use a good steel scraper or spatula several times a day, as necessary, to keep the cutting surface clean and sanitary. Scraping the surface will remove 75% of the liquids. Do not use a steel brush on the cutting surface.
  • With a clean cloth and mild soap and water solution, wipe the top thoroughly until all the debris is removed.
  • Wash out the cloth in clean warm water, wring out, and go over the surface again to remove any remaining soap.
  • Thoroughly wipe all surfaces with a clean dry towel. Allow residual surface moisture to air dry before reapplying Boos Block® Mystery Oil.

Sabatier Wide Turner Spatula ($13.76 from Amazon): This handy spatula, which is 9.65-Inches, is made from durable stainless steel that is riveted to the handle. It is sturdy, effective and dishwasher safe.

According to Sabatier,

The Sabatier Wide Turner features a narrow head that is perfect for picking up and flipping both large and small foods. The handle is made of durable POM and includes stainless steel rivets for added strength; you will never have to worry if a burger patty is too big. Both the handle and head are crafted from durable and sturdy stainless steel. This turner is dishwasher safe, making clean up quick and easy.

Olive Wood Spatula ($14.99-$18.76 from Amazon and Sur La Table): Made from olive wood, this dense wood is strong and yet lightweight. This should only be hand washed, and it won't scratch nonstick cookware. It is as beautiful as it is effective!

Kitchen Aid 5 Speed Hand Mixer ($38.00-$60.00 from Kitchen Aid, Crate & Barrel, Macy's, Amazon, Target and QVC): I have several recipes that call for beating egg whites to stiff peaks, and while I have a copper bowl that I routinely use for that purpose, there are times when I don't have the time to spare. This handy hand mixer allows you to do so much more. I selected the Aqua Sky shade because I liked it a lot, but there are a lot more colors from which to choose. Keep an eye out for sales this time of year– there are a lot of them!

According to Kitchen Aid,

Compact, lightweight and great for your everyday mixing needs. This hand mixer features 5 speeds, 2 Turbo Beater™ Accessories and the power and control to mix up your favorite cookie dough, mashed potatoes and so much more. Slowly stir in chunky ingredients, like nuts or chocolate chips, at speed one or whip egg whites or heavy cream at speed five.

Model KHM512 Includes:
  • Hand Mixer
  • Stainless Steel Turbo Beater™ Accessories
Features:
  • 5 Speeds to Match the Task at Hand: This hand mixer has the right speed for the task at hand, from mixing in nuts and chocolate chips at speed one, to whipping perfect meringues at speed five.
  • Easily Release Accessories with the Ejector Button: Quickly remove any of the included accessories from the hand mixer with the single-handed press of the button.
  • Lock the Cord on Either Side While Mixing: Lockable swivel cord keeps the cord out of your way while mixing.
  • Thoroughly Mix Ingredients with Ease: Mix your ingredients thoroughly, using the thoughtfully designed Stainless Steel Turbo Beater™ Accessories. Dishwasher-safe.

Prepared Hero Fire Blanket ($29.99 single pack from Amazon, multi-pack from Amazon, and Bed, Bath & Beyond): This is a great idea for anyone who cooks– indoors or outdoors– because it could prevent a serious fire. My sister purchased these for everyone in the family, and I am grateful that she sent one to me.

Features & Claims:

PREPARED HERO EMERGENCY FIRE BLANKET: Extinguish small fires quickly and easily with no mess (unlike common fire extinguishers). Simply deploy the blanket by pulling down the tabs.

PREPARED HERO PEACE OF MIND: Peace of mind for when fire happens from the brand you trust. Keep the Fire Blanket in the kitchen, backyard, vehicle or take it camping. It has a hole slot so it can also be easily hung on walls.
