Re: new and wanting advice

I like Tom Ford White Patchouli. It's a peppery patchouli, spicy, with creamy musk. I would also recommend L'Artisan Patchouli Patch. It too is musky, but surprisingly clean smelling, for patchouli.

Re: Woods, Woods, Woods!

Well, Diptyque Tam Dao leaps immediately to mind for me. L'Occitane also has two nice cedars-- Cedar and Eau des Baux. Although Eau des Baux is considered a masculine scent, the vanilla in it wears...

Re: September 3x3 Blind Sniff

Say, whisperingleaves, iris smells just like suede to me, and since I was getting "leather" and you get "powder" from iris, maybe that's one of the notes. I'm sure I smell gardenia most prominently,...

Re: Happy Guinness Day!

That probably explains why Guiness was on sale at the grocery last night-- $14.99 for a 12 pack instead of $17.99. You know I couldn't pass that up! Well, maybe you don't know it, but Andy Reid does!...
