i was so scared to pick up another bottle!!

...it would have been made for Satan himself, and it would have been called Love in White.

lot of people think that Satan would smell foul, or, would wear Secretions Magnifiques, or acier aluminium, or something hard to smell like that.

but i believe his fragrance would be the most beautiful and enticing of them all. it would get no negative or neutral reviews on basenotes out of 500 reviewers.

Wow, Satan's fragrance is better than Jesus'! Who would have thought? I am learning so much on S/FOTDT.

It was cold this morning, so I went with Amber Absolute. Since it's all but unwearable in the summertime.

Yeah, I couldn't imagine wearing that one in the heat. Yikes! vintage Moustache for me today. This is a weird one, but very neat. Starts off almost like a chypre (think old-school Chanel PM), then becomes a little spicy, with a hint of PdN New York/ Boid dP, then finishes off a rather classic fougere with all the lavender/mossy goodness. It's also something like Mouchoir de Monsieur, only I don't believe there is any civet in the Moustache. SO, think Mouchoir, minus the baby poop. Definitely recommended if you don't want a linear development as it goes along, and something a little "old fashioned." I've HEARD the recent formulations cut out some of the funk/spice and inserted more citrus, which would be a shame. As it is, it has that lovely Roudnitska (of eau d'hermes fame) slight funk beneath a rather classic facade. It's also in the same universe as, but I find more refined/less sharp than Eau Sauvage (another Roudnitska creation) Vintage juice, though, is very cheap on the interwebz.

^^ I may consider having a go at that once I pare back the herd and get through this no-buy that Dane tricked me into. Although I do have to say that it's been interesting to force myself out of the old routines and use the bottles I hardly think about these days. I think a few former keepers will get banished, and a few neglected ones might get back into the spotlight.

Not quite 500, but Bois des Iles has 33 reviews, and only 1 neutral! Meh.

Wearing Missoni Arancio...surprisingly durable.

Today I'm wearing a fragrance called Womanity. I think it's the most popular fragrance on SOTD.

Yeah, what is this? I was at Saks just ******* around with some Creed Vetiver and the next thing some old hag is going off on me about JFK and Jackio O.

I always retort to them that truly important individuals like J-Lo wear Silver Mtn Water. Then I ***** about the Ambergris drydown of the Millesimes, to which the SA pulls out a chart trying to argue to the contrary.
