Re: Coffee Time , coffee fragances

I admit that I'm exaggerating a little. I haven't tried all of his creations, so I cannot say he hasn't made anything worth while since Declaration - I'm sure there's some gems out there, of which I...

Re: Coffee Time , coffee fragances

I agree that L'Eau du Navigateur does not fit Jean Claude Ellena's repetitive, Iso E Super laden style of late, but he did create it in 1978.

Re: Opinions Wanted - Guerlain Spiritueuse Double Vanille vs. L'Art et la Matiere lin

1. None of them "just smell like vanilla." Each is pretty different in its own right.
2. SDV is probably your best bet if you're a vanilla lover.
3. My second favorite "vanilla" from your list...

Re: From Good Housekeeping: The right scent can boost your health (2:03-min. VIDEO)

Re: The newbie and the SA--my adventure

Have you...

Re: Struggling with Incense!

Well now, if you were that "other race" and you were wearing Jubilation XXV, it just wouldn't be so exotic smelling now would it? That would almost defeat the purpose IMO.

I think it's best to...

Re: The Perfumed Count any experiences?

I agree that the shipping can be excessive, but sometimes, if you order over 3 samples, they may each come from different locations around the world (ie. one of the 3-4 women who own and decant...

Oh I forgot to mention Apres L'ondee, I'm pretty sure there's lots of ylang ylang in there.

Re: dark, jammy fruits/wine for fall?

Hmm West Side by Bond no. 9 has a great red wine note and a bit of florals (mainly peony) over a sweet base... can't remember if there's a lot of fruit, but it's very, very unique. If you like red...

Re: Help choosing a dog

I think a wiener dog (daschund) would be perfect. They're very affectionate and needy and love to sit on your lap (to the point where you have to tell them to leave you alone!). They also have a lot...

Re: The Perfumed Count any experiences?

I'm pretty sure a HUGE amount of people on BN buy from TPC (The Perfumed Court), including myself. 99% of all my hundreds of samples and decants are from TPC, and I've only had one problem, once,...

Re: Do we have any video game fans here?

Chrono Trigger is my favorite game of all time! I enjoyed it even more than FF7... I supposed it had to do with my age at the time, as well as the time. Totally revolutionary! I still listen to the...
