Stopped at South Park Mall in Charlotte a few days back. First time there since Neiman Marcus opened.
In Neiman's, I talked to the Creed rep for North Carolina. I baited him into a little Bond No. 9 discussion. He was pretty gentle, and just commented that Laurice used to work for Creed. He smirked a little, but was not too harsh.
They showed me their bath products for Creed. I also smelled Royal Ceylan and Acier Aluminum for the first time. Both were nice, but my wife and I both preferred AA.
I also sampled Tobacco Flower by Fresh. A tangy scent, to be sure.
On down the mall, I stopped in Caswell-Massey and sprayed on some Lorenzo Villoresi Uomo. Spicey and not really appealing until about an hour later. Overall, we agreed the Tobacco Flower was preferable.
Last stop was Nordies. I saw YSL L'Homme and VR Antidote. I immediately fell for the Antidote packaging, and the scent was nice as well. I'll own L'Homme eventually, but this day I bought the Antidote and I'm wearing it now.
Antidote is a warm, sweet scent. I seem to detect some vanilla, some cinnamon and something that brings Givenchy Gentleman to mind.
I just love the Villoresi blue bottles.
