At around 250 reviews and counting, it's hard to say much that's new about what had to have been one of the more astonishing introductions of it's time. Although the novelty may have worn off...
This review is for the EDT. I’m not going to break down the notes or rate it. Yes, this is Jean-Claude Ellena’s mainstream fragrance packed full of ISO E super; it smells good, but lacks subtly...
No 19 Poudre Chanel could be the shy, yet talented niece of Chanel 19. Auntie is wealthy (thanks to her own efforts) and has aged quite well; in fact, she takes a young lover from time to time,...
Liquid Night could easily be a popular high-end designer fragrance intended for the fall and winter. It has a modern feel and an immediately appealing quality to it along the lines of La Nuit de...
Rich and sweet aroma of sun-ripened tropical limes. Very refreshing after a good shave -- tightens the skin nicely, leaving it very smooth. Puts me in a good mood in the morning. One of my...
I am having a lazy morning by the warm oven as I took the half day off, but I will have to attend a workshop in my area later. It saves me from commuting in and out of Vienna.
Eau de Fleurs de Cedrat for starters and possibly Jicky EdP for later.
Best to all
EDIT: I may feel more like Sous le Vent, right Wolfie?!
Hello everyone, SOTD is Mauboussin. Late-autumn splendor in a bottle.
Notes include plum, bergamot, mandarin, white peach, jasmine, ylang ylang, Turkish rose, amber, patchouli, sandalwood, benzoin, cedar, and vanilla
Oh my, I am definately the odd one out today amidst all this wonderful classicism and richness. For reasons unknown I took a notion for Molecule One yesterday, Iso e Super in a bottle. I had forgotten how much I like the floaty, ghostly, dry woody, Irisy character of this material. I really do enjoy it, so the same again for me today!
I started my morning with a much-needed hard run in LizSport, and now I'm all showered and refreshed and ready to get on with things in Vivre de Molyneux.
Morning everybody. Mike, sorry I missed your Bday yesterday, so a belated happy wish from me. Quarry! Oh my! Demeter's Dirt comes to mind, but you are right, not really much to match that mood!
Hello all Today the packing,organizing ( or an attempt of that at least :P) and cleaning continues. Sotd is Samsara. Just kind of as in that mood today. Happy belated b.day to Mike Hope the day was awsome!
(((inees))) I'm betting you'll feel better once you're out of that apartment for good. So I'm hoping the packing/cleaning/move go quickly for you. Hang in there.
Winter is really bringing out my sweet tooth cravings. Today is Mazzolari Lei, with notes of cocoa, labdanum, vanilla, patchouli, and woods. It's wearing like a cozy merino sweater, dusted with cocoa powder.
Anyway, SoTD Musc et Freesia by Coudray. It's comforting like a flannel shirt; pretty and feminine and a little bit "mumsy" (but not in a bad way). I've been wearing this for a few days now, actually.
Wolfie reminded me last week that I needed to revisit my sota, Jean-Marc Sinan's Sinan, a quintessential although largely unappreciated classic 80s chypre. I'm glad I did, too ...it is just so sophisticated and so chic ...and long-discontinued, of course.
Well, as usual, we've contributed some very fine smells to the atmosphere today!
Having sampled a load of Goutal over these last few days, I'm taking a break to wear my newest "baby", HdP Tubereuse 1: La Capricieuse. Can't get enough of this weird iris/tuberose suede. Good-night, everyone!
E., I will wear Sinan tomorrow, OK? So glad I have got me a FB when I had a chance. Somehow very tired again, all this running around in the wind. Only imagine how Q. is tired after managing a crew of construction workers with heavy machinery (almost wrote "artillery").
