I've tried this many times, I never understood why it stands out or sells so much. That bitter orange is repulsive and disgusting. This smells almost as bad as Guerlains Vetiver.
I don't like to factor in cost when reviewing a fragrance but for the ridiculously cheap price, this stuff is great! Smells similar to Armani Code but better. Might buy another bottle
TVlampboy declared Or des Indes as the elegant richer sister of Bal a Versailles,( but not the older) This is repeated by other enthusiasts on on other blogs. It is spot on. Bal is Zsa Zsa and Or...
Let me first say that Eau de Kananga is a brilliant but not mind-blowing scent. Eau de Kananga, at least the Rigaud version, is not a feminine fragrance and in reality a unisex if not exclusively...
SMN Garofano is a realistic and beautifully orchestrated carnation perfume. It is strong, spicy, and heady with floral overtones. Garofano is spicy, but not as spicy as Caron's Coup de Fouet. It...
In my case it's more like having a good first impression then spending more time with them and growing tired of them. Examples would be Lolita Lempicka, 24 Gold, Fuel for Life pH, He Wood, Black Soul...
Used to like L'Eau D'Issey Pour Homme by Issey Miyake. Finished one bottle, bought another one. About half-way, I got tired/sick of it, stopped using it, and sent it to my cousin who wanted to have any type of fragrance. Good riddance.
I think I'm there with Polo Black. A few months ago, it was the only frag I owned. It made me feel sexy...bigger...stronger. Now...it just smells like water Obviously, I'm stretching it there, but my other frags destroy it.
I smelled Platinum Egoiste for the first time about three weeks ago and was blown away. I thought I'd found what I had been looking for. Was all set to buy it the following weekend. Sprayed it again the following weekend and let it dry on my wrist. Total turn around. It seemed suddenly harsh and overpowering. Complete 180 degree change of heart.
I used to love Joop Homme. Sadly now I find it to be a synthetic bomb. Boo Hoo! I still have a soft spot in my heart for the red juice.
Me too! I think I was responsible for their staying in business from 1995-2000. But the smell still evokes some of the best memories in my mind. I would never not have a little bit around. Thinking back on it, I used an embarrassing amount of the pink juice myself! haha good times.
