For sale is barely used (99% full) bottle of Frank # 2 of Los Angeles. Bottle goes for $65 at luckyscent but I will be willing to sell for $50 (paypal fee and shipping inclusive). I can provide pictures if needed. Here is how luckyscent.com describes the scent and users review:

FRANK No. 2
Eau de Toilette
by FRANK los angeles

The Scoop
A smooth, confident blend with a playful side. Opening briskly, with bergamot and white lavender taking the lead, the first whiff is seemingly all business. But then we take a few detours along the way on the way to the office - dark espresso, warm and sensuous plum, a bit of fire in the belly from some cognac - and we wonder if we are going to work after all. Perhaps we are going to end up in a leather armchair in a wood paneled room in front of a roaring fire, instead. A mellow melange of wood and warm spice, with a touch of autumnal sweetness - this has the comfortable ease of a classic. Rich and full, but easy to wear. Extremely appealing.

FRANK No. 2 Notes
bergamot, white lavender, coriander, crushed plum leaves, cognac, plum, fir balsam, coffee bean essence, red maplewood, teakwood, white musk

Some reviews:

Love the fragrance, hate the packaging! FRANK No. 2 opens fresh, and dries down warm and dark. It would be great to apply just before a fall/winter dinner date, where you can enjoy the freshness of the opening, as it cuts through the cool dry air. Then it will dry down warm, dark, and ready for an evening of dancing. As to the issue of No. 2's packaging, which absolutely no thought was given... I too enjoy minimalist design, but the bottle is as generic as the ones used by the Demeter Fragrance Library (probably the same). The black banner around the top of the bottle, bearing the logo is a sticker (a sticker, really!?!?!?) Prior to ordering No. 2, I thought it was at least black enamel, or something with a bit more substance, but no. To sum it all up, it's a great fragrance for the money, and that's what we're really paying for right?

I bought this blind and it is one of my top fragrances. I'm still amazed at how many compliments I get when wearing Frank no. 2. At $65 a bottle the value is unbeatable. If you're on the fence go for it.

Frank No. 2 starts off green and a tad sharp and forward, but it mellows to a brown-amber and subdues to a skin scent. It is the essence of intriguing contradictions: relaxed formality; a dressy casualness and ultimately mellow richness. I like it a lot. Head and shoulders better than 90% of the department store fragrances out there at this price point. Oh, and by the way, it's a real bargain. Better in the colder months, but not a real problem on mild warm days.
