This smells like a deeper version of Pulp. As if the perfumer wanted a calmer, woodier version than the blast of fruit that is Pulp. So basically this smells more interesting and complex, more...
What a beautiful citrus. Sweet, tangy, realistic orange with hints of white flowers for seriousness and wearability. My only criticism is that it fades into soap on my skin, but on fabric it...
For those reading my reviews, you know my #1 favorite cologne is Diesel, Only the Brave.. I am also a fan of that Diesel's "big brother", Fuel for Life...
Fuel comes out of the bottle with...
Ok - I am a "sucker" for new designer fragrances... Living Stromboli was one of these purchases.. I am pleasantly surprised with the scent - I just wish it lasted longer.
Out of the bottle,...
Dior Escale a Parati - nothing spectacular here, but I love it
+ L'Artisan, Bond No.9 designs, Lancome's Hypnose and Trophée Lancome, YSL's Rive Gauche and M7, Guerlain's Shalimar(guess it is vintage), The Un Jardins by Hermés, Nikos' Sculpture...tons of great bottles out there both in the desiger and the niche game
i really like the bond no9 bottles, MDCI with the guy on top, and the creed flacons are nice as well. The tom ford flacons aren't bad either. I am an amateur though.
looking through here though, you guys posted some really cool bottles
From an aesthetic viewpoint, my all-time favorite bottles are the Tom Ford private blends in with the globular stoppers. Black bottles wit gold detailing are just my thing, and it just really appeals to my sense of luxury, and what luxury ought to look like.
From a practical standpoint, something that stands up, is hard to tip over, easy to hold, and has a spray nozzle. Some brands I like are pretty bad in this respect ( domino-like Lutens exports and various Comme des Garcons rolly rounded shapes ).

I also adore gold on black detailing. However, my favourite bottle design from the Tom Ford house would have to be the 50ml Private Blend. Next would be the Black Orchid, then the Private Blend decanter. I find the 100ml Private Blends hideous though. Mr. Ford should have just scaled up the 50ml or made it taller.
I love the simplicity of Lutens and Byredo. Lalique bottles are also gorgeous, my mother used to collect them. And I don't think that Guerlain should be left out.
love Guerlain bottles: Montre, mushroom, rosebud, fan, bee bottles and especially LHB and Mitsouko perfume bottles.
Chanel exclusives are a very classy modern design.
I love the classic Chanel bottles and Jean Patou Joy (vintage). I love them for their simplicity, timelessness and gravitas. I have a few vintage bottles and some still have a little bit of juice left in them. I also like the look of the new Chanel Coco Noir.
The new Agent Provocateur Petale Noir looks great, but it's not out yet, so I don't know how it actually looks or feels in the hand. I love the engraving and the shape of the bottle. I also agree with senore01. Midnight in Paris is beautiful.
I really like the Dirty English bottle. It looks inspired by a Jack Daniels whiskey bottle, and the leather and metal bits on the cap look like something inspired by the stuff Johnny Depp had on his wrists in Pirates of the Carribean.
