    Uppercut: no luck just yet, but if I find one I'll let you know. (Maybe I should try to make one instead ).

    HI Nukapai,

    I write the About.com London Travel website (golondon.about.com) and a reader has asked me about perfume shops in London. I'll be honest, I know nothing about perfumes and fragrances and a friend recommended this site.

    I can see you are hugely knowledgeable on this subject and have seen your Google Good Perfumery Guide - London: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps/ms?hl=...b1a3d139c0e3d6

    I was wondering if you could help me narrow the number of shops to maybe the top ten in central London? I hear Les Sentaurs is fantastic and Penhaligon's would be popular with overseas visitors.

    I would really appreciate your opinion.

    Kind regards,

    P.S. I went to Finland for the first time a few weeks ago but didn't get to see much of the country as I went to Moominworld!

    I wish I was in Rome too - hope you are having fun! The cute illustration is by our very own Grant - he's talented isn't he? Do let me know what you think about the column when you get back

    Hi nuka, I am in Rome and I see your latest column. It looks great, I will read it with great pleasure when I am not in a cybercafe. But I wanted to say hi and that that is a great school girl picture, very cute! Cheers, ody

    Thanks for those, Ody! I enjoyed your description of the Ortigia brand and will check them out in person one day

    I've also added The British Museum to the list, as not everyone will know they have perfumes there too. Also put in the V&A for its perfume bottles and general relevance to design and fashion history.

    Hello, thanks for the wonderful work on the London map. Could you please add Farmacia Santa Maria Novella, 117 Walton Street? That map is such a great resource, I've printed off a couple of sections for my next trip. Cheers,

    Just wanted to stop by and say congratulations. You are so deserving of such a wonderful opportunity, especially with such a nice company; I always enjoy their boutiques.
    I will be living my dreams vicariously through you, please be kind and indulge me with all the wonderful details of your incredible journey.

    I like your reviews. Concise, straightforward.

    Question: Do you think a woman can get away with wearing Lagerfeld Classic
    ('78)?

    Thanks,

    Frip
