We have been in San Francisco for the past four days, staying in a
hotel near to Union Square. Here are some of the scents I tried out
over here.
Neiman Markus was a very impressive store with a beautiful, high,
gilded, domed ceiling. As I walked in I was met by an SA attempting to spray me with the new
Fresh scent (lemon something or other) but I managed to sidestep her in time and headed
straight for the Tom Ford display. Those black bottles were presented in a magnificent way
and I tried a few prefering Noir de Noir out of the lot.
Downstairs in the men's section with Hubbie I was delighted to find bottles of Dior Jules and
Eau Noire. I tried both and loved the Eau Noire on my other half - what is it with me and "black" scents??
Next stop Diptyque in Maiden Avenue , where I loved the Philosycos. Sadly my sniffing there was cut
short by a bomb scare in the very area I was in! Fortunately it was a false alarm - an unidentified package that
turned out to be harmless.
In Sephora I sprayed on some 24 Faubourg - beautiful!
Finally I ventured into Victoria's Secret, feeling very "old," and pretended I was searching for scents for my nieces.
They pointed me towards the new Sexy Little Thing Noire (black again....) and I tried the Heavenly one too ( a bit bland)
I ended up buying the black ones for my nieces, as they were in such cute packaging.
That's all for today folks.....
Flying back this afternoon after a great 10 days in California. Loved Santa Barbara and Morro Bay in particular.
