This fragrance gave me headaches and nausea. It smells like chemical liquorice. It reminds me also the candies in the drugstores. It's old-fashionned and not really wearable.
This Serge Lutens beauty is like a fresh gingerbread cookie or cake. Wore this one a few times,and it has a slight old school vibe (probably because of the ginger and cinnamon), which seems to be...
If you like Bath and Body Works' Midnight Pomegranate, (which is very popular), you will most likely like Viva La Juicy. I love both. There is a very caramel, praline deepness to both of them....
Well, not much to say about this, it's floral, it's fruity, it even has some "beach" feeling, but the game is too short and boring...how can they just think that someone would pay that price for...
Going on with my Gardenia state-of-mind...
This one is my Holy Grail for Gardenia scents, maybe it's a tiny bit less realistic than "Gardez-Moi" (even though it contains mostly Gardenia...

Lately I've been diggin' this retro synth John Carpenter-esque stuff. This album would've gone under my radar if not for Forced Exposure. Resident Advisor gave it 4/5 stars, frankly I don't know why they withheld the last star unless it was for PCA not including volume 3 in this set. I swear I'm seconds away from busting out the Escape From New York OST, lolz.

Being the obsessive Andrew Weatherall fan that I was years ago, I went through the entire discography of theirs and I was extremely thrilled with the Weatherall-produced track, on this album, 'Trainspotting'. Still, my FAVORITE Primal Scream release is the 'Dixie Narco' EP. Every track is ace.

I have never heard of them (like so many artists that you post). Reminds me of the John Carpenter-esque stuff that Prurient (aka Dominick Fernow) is releasing like 'Time's Arrow'.

Oh cool, thanks for the recommend. I'm running down their back catalog as the first time around I was content with CDR's and mp3's. I'll keep an eye out for Dixie Narco. I luv that they did Vanishing Point as an alternate soundtrack to the 70's movie of the same name. How cool is that? And what a crazy cover of Motorhead!

That Prurient track is cool. When I left off with Prurient it was harsh noise. Seems the John Carpenter style stuff is trending. John Olson from Wolf Eyes is doing Moon Pool & Dead Band (Carpenter-esque), Andy Votel's new project Xian Orphic is like a mix of Klaus Shultze (Ash Ra Tempel, Tangerine Dream, etc.) and John Carpenter.
Heard a Belly song on the radio this morning (who plays them anymore?) and got in the mood for some rare Tanya-led Muses (firmly camp Kristin here usually!).
Been listening to a lot of Pet Shop Boys for the last couple of days (I go through these PSB phases), the new album has some highlights (the track 'A Face Like That' is fantastic) but their single which is sort of okay, has three wonderful B-sides, one of which is addictive...
