Green Irish Tweed now, bought Czech&Speake Cuba today.
Today, giving A*Men another try... now I feel like eating chocolate
Was thrilled to find that they re-released HAVANA and JHL in 100ml bottles. Formulas, to my nose, smell as they used to. Havana is a great, spicey, deep tobacco wonderland and JHL is one of the great "gentleman" scents. Apparently Estee lauder developed it for her husband. In any case, $48.00 retail for 100 ml bottles isn't such a bad price. Definitely bottle-worthy, IMHO, if you want classics with character and punch.

Finally! $48 for a 3.4oz is a steal as these used to go upwards of $75 on the Basenotes boards. Has anybody found the bottles at a local Saks? I'd be interested in trying the rest of the re-released line as well. Rach - do you know if *********** with the formula or is it the same as the original?
Today, to commemorate the first day of fall, AND an incoming cool front (OMG, only 85 today, bring a sweater!), wearing Chanel Cuir de Russie which is slowly winning me over after a bad first impression.
CdR was odd, Knize Ten is the closest thing I've smelled to it, and Knize has way more powdery floral notes, where CdR is more straight floral.
They are quite similar, though the Knize is definitely the one with the adam's apple and the stubble on its cheeks. Just as an experiment, I found that if I spray it onto skin, it became a Godzilla Floral, but when I spray into air and then wave my arm through it, the Knize is less floral, more spicy-leather. Better-balanced, definitely.
I suggest you try the CdR in the Pure Parfum concentration. It is really impressive.
