    Ofrésia by Diptyque

    Peppery green, fresh floral, but not flowery! Lasts all day, and all the little notes you would rather do without, disappear just when you are ready for them to leave,

    Whip by Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab

    Nasty rose soap! Sorry......
    (I've just been asked to write more)
    OK - Really nasty rose soap.
    Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab - WHIP.
    Who is expecting nasty rose soap with a name like that?

    En Avion by Caron

    (I don't know how old my sample is - It is dark and thick.)
    I would like anyone, immediately, who wore this scent. Yes, I smell the cloves, but I also smell magic.

    Pink Lotus by Aftelier

    Yes, this fragrance was created by Sting and Trudi Styler for Madonna..... but then they decided to give it to me. I am undecided! Could be pretty - but it has a dirty edge. As time goes on, I like it more....less floral - more stank. Too bad Sting and Trudy only gave me a small sample: or so I thought. A dear friend suggested that I should have had Madonna go through security when she left in a huff. His guess is that she had my sample (the large one, in a real glass bottle) hidden in one of the deep pockets in one of those horrible rain-coats she's always lugging around.

    parfums*PARFUMS Series 3 Incense: Zagorsk by Comme des Garçons

    Um...... It smells like a dentist's office, cedar, clove and Lysol; and it made my dog Whittman sneeze.

    I love it! (I can't think of anything clever or profound to say.)

    Escentric 02 by Escentric Molecules

    Way too weak to me! Not unpleasant -but either is Old Spice. I can't see sampling any of the other "Molecules" after this one.

    Touch for Men by Burberry

    I really did not like the opening blast of "something" rancid. Can't put my finger on it. Almost smells vegetable in nature. Mildly pleasant after about an hour - but who has an hour to wait for the mystery stench to evaporate.

    Joop! Homme by Joop!

    Oh it's just awful and lasts forever. I'm sure that it could be used to make something smell better.....

    Calèche by Hermès

    Smells like Chanel No. 5 and urine.... which isn't always such a bad thing.

    Virgin Island Water by Creed

    At first I thought it smelled like a tanning salon.... then I started to like it. What happened? (I don't know.) Lime, coconut and pencils. I wear it to the gym - with apprehension. If someone walks by and sniffs the air - I pretend it's the woman on the Life Cycle next to me.

    A freshly sharpened pink pencil.

    Crave by Calvin Klein

    Too quickly green....then settles down a bit to something with a subtle note of more, but different green.... and soapy.

    Silver Mountain Water by Creed

    Beer sloshed on the sleeve of a sweatshirt washed with too much fabric softener. (I wouldn't buy it... but I'd gladly accept it as a gift..... from Ricky Martin!)

    Royal Delight by Creed

    Really strong and long lasting. Smells expensive. Very feminine. Even as a gay guy - I can barely carry it off. (But I do!)

    Halston 101 by Halston

    Cedar.... I loved it...... Very strong and commanding! It smelled like a rich hamster's mansion.... in the woods. (It made me sneeze, though... every time I wore it.)

    Il Bacio by Borghese

    Moderation and distance... that's all I'm saying. Grandma in church, but a non-denominational service. In May....... Maybe earlier for Easter. That's it! Easter.
