Hi folks

I found a solution to scrub tenacious scents from my wrists. I wash my hands with hot water and soap and then I apply a considerable amount of Hand Sanitizer Gel (the one surgeons use). It actually works with the exception of Montale's Aoud Musk or ELDO's Secretions Magnifique who survive even to amputation.

what about your techniques for removing aggressive and undesired scents?

Good idea about the alcohol gel. Evidently, it must volatilize molecules. Does the system work also with Delices de Cartier, Amarige, and Bas de Soie? (or with mukhallat malaki - though that's a good one to keep)

No escape from SM... Unfortunately, some of the recipients of sample vials were foolish enough to put on skin.

Alcohol wipes and witch hazel wipes help too.

No way Cacio, the Lutens range is tenacious as hell! Almost like Montale's Aoud Musk that after a washing mashine cycle it's still on my shirt! Unbelievable!!

Luckily, BdS is pretty much the only SL one would want to get rid off if sprayed by mistake...

Other than a hot shower and being soaped up, I just let time take care of the rest. No problems yet, and that includes Aoud Musk
which I love.

I love Aoud Musk either (it's one of my favourite scents from 2010) but after staying for two consecutive weeks on my skin I needed a break! LOL
