New-found love!

[kewart]

I can't believe it's taken me so long to test this fragrance,
but now that I have I'm hooked!
It's powerful, very sensual and
deeply addictive. It hasn't got that many notes, is by a female perfumer and.
can be found in most department stores over here.
I am hoarding my small sample like gold dust and looking forward to wearing it
over Christmas.
Any idea what I just discovered?

[Quarry]

No idea, but I'm sharing your excitement and looking forward to the revealing of this secret elixir.

[Dane]

DK Gold?

I need more clues. :S

[YouCanCallMeMo]

...or, perhaps Black Cashmere? Does Donna Karan count as a perfumer? I'm trying to think of common female perfumers....perhaps Annick Goutal?

[Quarry]

Black Cashmere

Oh, that's a good guess.

[Candy Perfume Boy]

Hypnotic Poison?

[Mimi Gardenia]

Hypnotic Poison?

I'm with Libertine - Hypnotic Poison !

Please put us out of our misery!!!! I have to go back to work and I'm dyin' here......please....................pretty please.........................

[Leesee]

Is it by Sophia Grojsman?

[Dane]

^^ I thought that too at first, Paris or something, but I see that's already in her wardrobe.

Hypnotic Poison is a good guess.

[Jane Daly]

I want to know too!

And I'm hoping it's not Hypnotic Poison and that it is something I will love too

[Mimi Gardenia]

Not Tresor is it ??? I hope it is Hypnotic Poison ! I love the stuff to death .....

[knit at nite]

still dyin' to know

[Brielle87]

Shalimar peut-être?

[kewart]

Sorry I took so long to get back to you all.
I had a coughing fit last night and went to bed early
with a hot lemon and paracetamol drink!
Libertine got it - it is HYPNOTIC POISON (elixir).
I just looked it up in The Perfume Guide and LT rates it highly too.
I must save up for a bottle of the Elixir version of this. It is the perfect
scent for winter parties.

[YouCanCallMeMo]

Glad you found something you love!

>Sighs and sits with 3xasif, as I am incapable of appreciating HP, myself.

[Alicka61]

Kewart, I wonder how it differs from regular HP since I am fed up with that one.

[lilybelle]

Yay! I want to try it, too! (I'm such a lemming). So who is the creator?

[Sunnyfunny]

Woohoo! Another member of Team HP!

Lilybelle, Annick Menardo is its creator.

Thank you.

[knit at nite]

Thanks!!!!
and hooray for libertine and mystic knot for their superlative powers of deduction!

[Bigsly]

I think I sampled this a while back and it was too food-like for me, but I did recently discover Mauboussin's Histoire d'Eau, which is now among my top 5 or so (it's got fruit, heavy spices, and suede), and it costs very little now.

[kewart]

Bigsly how does Histoire d'Eau compare to the straight Mauboussin for women?
I love that one and am interested in the difference between them.

[Mimi Gardenia]

Yes ! Welcome to Team HP ! Good for you ! It is addictive !

[Balavassassin]

haha, good guess guys! Nice Choice BTW!
