Today I Bought - June 2012 - Page 2

That was me who won that partial bottle of Fumerie Tourque on E-bay yesterday.

Got myself in a bit of a panic that I would never be able to find it anywhere, I must admit. Seems I'm not the only one feeling that way, given the somewhat frantic attention it attracts when it comes up on the Bay these days.

I am really enjoying this one. However, the name is a bit misleading. I find the jasmine to take a back seat to the amber and spices. It's also a little "dirty" - but I like that.

All kidding aside, he's a hell of a nice guy!

Okay so I have to eat my words (from the thread about this scent) but I snagged one of those 10ml Tom Ford bottles (the ones that the SA's have behind-the-counter, before a scent is released) of Lavender Palm. I know I said it was too expensive but I nabbed this one on eBay at an affordable price and it'll allow me to enjoy it this Summer...I'm going to take it with me to Provincetown (MA) next month.

I was at Nordstrom yesterday and I tried the entire range of rereleased classics and I was blown away with all of them. Tuscany, Devin, New West, JHL-- they were all scents that I remember smelling in the days when men weren't afraid to smell like men. I already have the rerelease of Havana and I love it. I think I'm going to have to buy the rest of the series as well. I can't believe how amazing these are.

I bought a fresh new 3.4 ounce bottle of Bulgari Pour Homme yesterday. I've been on a real Bulgari kick; I really enjoy Soir and Extreme, but sometimes that grapefruit of Extreme is not what I'm looking for. Bulgari Pour Homme is such a unique and wonderful men's musk scent. Classy scent, classy bottle-- makes me feel great every time I wear it.

Still easily obtainable from ebay and resellers. You can find most things by looking hard enough.
