Please check out this shop. It's a little Cafepress site. If you don't know Cafepress, it's one of those companies that helps make logo or signature items.

The Perfume-Reporter (http://www.theperfume-reporter.com) set one up with a bunch of nifty resources. Here's the link:

Now why do you need this stuff? First of all, it has a notebook inspired by the chronicles of Joanna McLaughlin, the "Confessions of a Perfurmista." Only this isn't her book, it's yours. So it's blank, ready for you to chronicle you adventures or write your grocery list or doodle your name with the surnames of various imaginary husbands.

There's also a coffee mug that says (what else) "Wake up and smell the perfume!" Plus there are some other items. They tell us over at theperfume-reporter.com (a sister site; it's also published by Redd Publishing) that they may expand the offerings as sales warrant.

Anyway, happy shopping. You can't spend all of your money on perfume!

For more descriptions, continue on with this story.

There is a clock that says, "So many perfumes, so little time." You can also get that same sentiment on a license plate frame. The clock makes sense to us...tick, tock...you only get so much time to scent yourself.

The license plate holder doesn't quite have that same chronological theme, but what we like about it is that it's super noticeable. And why not advertise that you're a perfume fan? You never know what other gentlemen and gentlewomen of fragrance you'll meet on life's highway.

There is a yellow messenger bag that says perfume-reporter.com on it. It's a nice bag, very sturdy and roomy, and the logo is very discreet, in case that matters to you. We figure it doesn't, the bag is bright yellow and if you have any reservations about not being noticed, well, you probably wouldn't carry around a big bright yellow satchel with you.

There's a tee-shirt too but we have not tried that. Our vote for best item: the coffee mug. Practical, useful, and a fun thought.
