Dearest Alls
Thank you to those who have sent messages to enquire after my well being and whereabouts.
I am pleased to announce that, Mark Twain-like, rumours of my demise are greatly exaggerated.
In fact, as the culmination of a somewhat tumultuous summer chez The Perfumed Dandy, I am currently changing chezs for as we speak I am in the process of moving abode.
Soon I shall be settled into leafier but still very much London surrounds and come the end of next week normal service will be entirely resumed.
I do hope you will excuse this minor pause in proceedings.
In the meantime why not check out some recent highlights by clicking on the links below…

Until we meet again dearhearts do take care and a scent three times a day.
Yours ever, though temporarily absent,
The Perfumed Dandy.
Oh Dearest Dandy! Sometimes life takes priority over fun things like blogging. We all understand. I have been absent as well. I look forward to your return!
Dearest Biscuit
Too true… life does intrude, but is, at least better than the alternative!
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
Very true, dearest Dandy! Hope that all is well!
“Leafy” sounds de-lovely. 🙂 I wish you all best in your new abode, Mr. Dandy. Thank you for all the posts and pics – even amidst the stress and upheaval of a move. You are one major trooper! xo
Dearest Lily
The ‘trooper’ feels a little battle hardened after a life of cardboard boxes and packing paper… but now ensconced in a new home I am ready to go on with the good fight.
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
I greatly approve of the first image. H.G. Wells is one of my favourite authors.
Dearest Nena
The Dandy has a soft spot for Herbert George too… high time there was something of a resurgence of interest in him to my mind.
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
Dear Mr Dandy,
What a relief. I thought you had taken umbrage at misinterpreted and false allegations of sandcastle bashing back in the Twentieth Century, when you were merely a Sandy Dandy. I see now that you were simply moving mansions.
Your Friend
IScent
A wee sandy dandy! 🙂 That’s cute.
Dearest Iscent
A ‘Sandy Dandy’ indeed… though I have finally washed up on the shores of my new land (or flat at least) and now everything is ship shape and Bristol fashion I can return to what matters most… Perfume!
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
All the best, Mr Dandy, for the move- I hope the new leafy surrounds inspire lots of testing and writing! I shall carefully scent 3x per day, as per instructions (enjoying Penhaligons orange blossom today, not very seasonal but its just so pretty… is it on your list?)
Dearest Alice
Consider Penhaligon’s Orange Blossom added to the list! We need some reminders of Spring and Summer now that Autumn is well and truly with us.
Ah well… al the more reason to wrap up ourselves in scent!
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
Good luck with your move! (be sure to triple-wrap your perfumes 😉 )
Dearest U
Thank you so much… the scents and I were all triple wrapped, which is why it has taken us quite so long to emerge from our chrysalises!
Back now though and raring to go…
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy

Ok then. I was starting to worry something got messed up with my wordpress following setting. 🙂
Hope your move goes perfect and all the perfumes find themselves safe and whole in their new abode.
Dearest Ines
The scents (and The Dandy) have finally ‘transitioned’ more or less in one piece to the new abode… finally I can find a little time to devote to the poor perfumes that are now well and truly settled in.
Thanks for the kind wishes.
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
After you get moved in to the new Chez why not lie down on the chaise lounge and take a bit of a rest. You have been soooo busy! We miss you… Me especially!
Dearest Mr Lanier
Why a spell on my almost-a-chaise-longue has done the trick and I’m quite ready to get writing again!
Hurrah!
Thank you so much for all your kindness.
Yours ever
The Perfumed Dandy
