Very sharp green and Orange Blossom opening...almost vetiver green, Dries down quickly to warm benzoin, beeswax, and orange blossom. I like it, but it loses its uniqueness
I am a fan of Montales, having Black Aoud, Dark Aoud, Cuir d'Arabie, Louban, and Red Aoud. This is a variation on the Black Aoud fragrance, minus the blast of oud, being replaced by a blast of...
This sweet cherry honeyed fragrance is not bad at all. Powdery vibe going on with this one. Kind of reminds me of Pure Havane minus the powdery vibe. I detect the hay which gives this a slight...
Frapin 1270 is a delicious gourmandish scent. The sweetness is soft, yet creamy, caramely with some nuts in the middle. Overall, it is warm, boozy, and intoxicating with a nice vanilla drydown....
The love at first whiff is not so much because of the cumin (and note that to me is home-like, comforting, earthy and sensual), but more so with how it is orchestrated with iris and earthy-ambery...
Black Swan : a load of psuedo-Freudian tosh, i.e hysterical bint just needs a good seeing to! Offensive, lazy twaddle.
Natalie Portman was good as an actress, not so as a balerina. Her arms were leaden, and about as expressive as tree trunks. They should have hired a real balerina.
Korean shows can can be really addictive.. I need subs of course.. Gonna watch this one before hitting the sack..
Reminds me of The Shadowless Sword. Going just by the trailer, Blades of Blood looks like it might be better. Koreans sure do kick some ass with swords, don't they?

That one's on the fantasy/mythical martial arts breed yeah? Blades of Blood feels more believable. and set in historical past. The story line of BoB is typical of Asian feudal war movies, with its own little variation here and there to keep things interesting. The costume and cinematography is beautiful and the fight sequences are not bad. Has the typical qualities of successful (not incredible) clan war movie.
Downloaded 127 Hours, Hereafter, and The Fighter, burning them onto DVD right now. Probably going to watch them in the next few days. Last great film I watched was The Godfather Part II. The world was robbed of John Cazale. I wondered why he didn't do many films, found out he died of bone cancer.
Just got home from seeing Rango. I liked it a lot, but I expected to love it. It's an animation for grown-ups, young children will easily get bored I think.
