Ok, I have been following a thread about Slumberhouse, and it has me thinking. There are frags. out there that I would love/wear if it wasn't for that ONE discordant note that kills it for me. Bond no 9 is a great example of a house that has some nice offerings, if it wasn't for "that one note" Bleeker st. and Riverside Drive have an artificial grape/plum chemical that kills an otherwise decent fragrance. I like Bn9 New Haarlem except for a strange "stale clove/cinnamon" note not listed, but irritates my nose, Slumberhouse Jeke smells good, except I keep getting a spiced "dill pickle" that lingers and kills it for me. ... Some people say the "fecal" top note in Montale's Cuir d'Arabie turns them off to an otherwise decent fragrance. anyone else have examples?
