Feeling already now bit uncomfortable looking at the ''cowboy guy'' print on the bottle...it's on the edge wether I should consider this as a sincere attempt on adding some masculinity to the bottle or just a tacky camp humour, nevertheless definitely not my cup of tea.
In my opinion the older bottle was so much more appealing than this one...but then again this is just my personal opinion.

Just what the world needed -- a fragrance that can do a one-handed pushup.

That bottle made me laugh. I don't think that's the intended reaction, no? Now if only they'd advertised it using homoerotic images from Brokeback Mountain, I'd run out to buy it right now. *growls*
Gag a maggot!

maybe there is to be a tie-in with the Tom of Finland cologne?

I didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so I chose laugh.
I love it!![]()
PS...Too funny Jaelynn![]()
I guess in hindsight, another option for the image could have involved cacti - some grow into homoerotic shapes.
My bottles tend to stay in their boxes and in drawers so I really don't mind what the bottle looks like - it's the juice baby!! That said, that card the was included with Reverie au Jardin has a place of honor on my refrigerator - wowee wow wow!!

Can't bring myself to be mean, because I adore Andy's work, but I must say that when I buy this, as I decided I someday must after one test, I'll split it and be generous enough
to pass on the half with the bottle.
So Socal- what's the card w Reverie?

Lonestar is my favourite Tauer scent and I'll always keep it in stock... but that new bottle looks ineffably cheap and gross. Bah.

Jaelynn - you made me spit my drink.
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it a unisex scent? If so, the cowboy may be a bit off putting to women. What was the old bottle like?
What was the old one like?
The old one was a bit more "clunky" looking-- maybe more squarish. Also the cap on the old L'Air du Desert was more clunky and roundish looking (I only saw pictures). I just don't like the new bottles and caps.
Of course, I have a blind purchase of SMN Nostalgia coming today, and from the picture I've seen-- it might be the worst looking bottle/ lettering font/etc I've ever seen (Which is sad because some of the old SMN's have gorgeous bottles. Nostalgia's looks terrible, though maybe it will be nice when I see it in person. But I can't help it-- my mom used to be a calligrapher/sign painter --and these kinds of aesthetic considerations are a big deal to me.
from the mens boards so fast I couldn't swallow.
but I have a lot to be thankful for. Management couldve pulled life support on me a long time ago.

Ah, that card! Think I saw it when I was reading about the launch. Can't remember if the rumor was true that the torso was Andy's.
I'll let you know when I spring Tommi.I haven't even tried it on me yet, but two drops on my long suffering masculine fragrance model and I was undone.
