It pains me to give this frag a bad rating because I really wanted to like it, and it does smell nice, but it simply does not last. I tried it three times, the last time I used several sprays and...
I gave it 3 stars just for longevity and projection (which is amazing), this thing lasts forever.. Sprayed it a few times/several days and just couldn't understand the hype behind it. I like...
Sel de Vetiver opens with a grapefruit note that is sweet, watery, and marked by an odd salty quality that makes it completely unique. If that's all the scent did, and it just lasted like that...
I was pleasantly surprised with the fragrance when I compared it to Allure Homme Sport. I think it beat AHS by a lot and was an easy purchase at the mall. I'm a big fan of tonka bean though so...
It's not leathery like Knize Ten, Cuirnde Russe and Bandit. It's a sweet'ish violets, cardamom & leather with a subtle myrrh & sandalwood dry down.
I enjoyed the opening & dry down more than the...
I only ever discovered this gem of a record last summer when listening to a RA podcast by Benoit & Sergio. I only wish I would have discovered this song a lot sooner.

I have extremely fond memories of dancing to this, in Warsaw Ballroom (in SoBe...early 90's), on a dance floor full of fog and light and feeling so wonderful. It was the first time I ever felt this way about a 'house' song and I will never forget it. A Chicago House classic.

While every now and again, I was thinkin' to myself this album isn't as good as I remembered it. As I'm flippin' it to the fourth side, I notice it's a 45!

Spent the day packing (I move next week), so I was jamming out with the stereo up full blast, listening to:
Lonerism by Tame Impala
It gets better & better every time I hear it. I have figured out that my favorite track is 'Nothing That Has Happened So Far Has Been Anything We Could Control'. The video for 'Feels Like We Only Go Backwards' rocks also.
Delighted to see plenty of Swans appreciation recently
+1, glad to see the music thread gettin' some luv. It's been real colorful and varied for awhile now and a cool page to leave open on a tab just to listen to stuff.

I have no idea what the Chanel perfume in the artwork is all about (??). The B-side is much better, IMO, than the single. Link here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuPUtXp00S0
