Re: Havana vs. Bloomingdales - the truth?

As a gay man, I find that offensive. And nothing to do with the discussion.

Re: SotD - Thursday, 2 October 08

Clinique Happy for Men.

Happy? Must be a typo. Crappy for Men is more like it. IMHO.

Re: Rochas Fragrances

I have to put in a plug for Rochas Monsieur Concentree (the original formula, not the newer pink stuff). You can still get it on eBay and from TPC.

It's a classic (and classy) dry fougere that...

Re: L'Artisan Parfumeur being sold?

No.

This is an old story from the end of 2007. L'Artisan, Penhaligon's and some other company were put up for sale. No sale has ever happened and it may not even be in the works.

Those...

Re: All Invited! ♥ ♥ ♥ Sniff 'n' Speak Saturday, October 4, 2008 ★★★ AMBER

What timing! I'm in the depths of my amber exploration. I think I have 40 samples. Trying to find the elusive amber that contains no vanilla (and no incense).

I'm in! Who knows? I may try...

I've only placed one order with them, but was very impressed with the customer service.

Placed order. Received email a few minutes later that the one of the items was out but expected in a couple...

Softsoap Cucumber Melon wash

Mazzolari Ambra EdT (sample) - so far a nice honey amber. Feels like a nice casual scent. Seems to be short-lived.

Re: Focus on "i Profumi di Firenze", your views on those you've tried

To be honest, I am enamored of this house because the first frag I fell in love with is from iPdiF. And they do have a unique quality -...

Re: Why is there no love for Carthusia on here?

Thanks. I had a feeling I was being "misinformed".

I've pretty much given up on the one store (Gump's) except that they carry Trumper's products. Except when they've lied to me about what they...

Re: Why is there no love for Carthusia on here?

It's a house that I'm kind of interested in. Two things hold me back:

1. I've only sniffed bottles. And that doesn't do much for me.
2. They don't have samples (per the two local vendors that...

Re: "Is it too much to ask SotD posters?"

We have a whole review section already.

Usually, I'm trying to get out of the house when posting. I'm not writing a review then and won't.

If I'm wearing it, I like it.

Re: if there were a gathering of Basenoters

See? This is exactly what I thought. But what if everyone coming to the meet thought the same thing?

Re: LV Vetiver

I feel that way about all of LV's frags. I've sampled them all. Can't say they make me feel filthy.

But they do make me think "Thank Guerlain I didn't buy a full bottle of this junk."

Re: Job interviews tomorrow, advice for fragrance selection

None. You don't wear scent to an interview. Too many variables, including the interviewer being sensitive to whatever you're wearing.

You want to get hired; not just be remembered
