From The Guide...

No.88 = masculine floral *** > Rose 31 = not rose **

Go 88!

Rose 31 !!!!

It smells like rose, the whole rose. Stems, wood, and all.

88 is a geranium (not that there's anything wrong with that). : )

You're not alone, the prediction contest has it 17-8 in favor of No. 88, but it's still very early and the bulk of the members may not have logged on yet.

No. 88 pulls out the convincing win after a slow start! I even voted against my bracket but I figured 88 was a shoe in.

I voted for No. 88. I like Rose 31, in fact it is my favorite Le Labo, but No. 88 is better on my skin.

This one is starting to turn into a small runaway. Can C&S 88 hold off a last ditch rally, and advance to the next round?
