I apologize for not searching through the threads better than I have to figure this out before posting the question, but what are folks takes on this one?
I seriously over paid yesterday for a 3.4 oz bottle ($50). I thought it was discontinued and hard to get, but looks like it is easy enough to get on-line. Tania Sanchez (Luca Turin's sidekick) gives it four stars in the Perfume Encyclopedia. She gives the feminine version 5 stars but recommends the masculine version for women that feel the fem version is too sweet, somethinig like that. And the perfume kiosk guy I bought from (Tysons Corner, VA--amazing selection and an interesting guy to talk to; Creed 4 oz SMW for $165 and you might be able to talk him down) said he had sold a number of bottles to women.
Seems to show up as a frag that men have noticed women as liking on them. I have never given much credibility to threads that ask what frags women like on men, as I truly do not believe a particular frag is going to make that much difference across the board with women, but I may be wrong. My wife who seems indifferent to the vast array of scents I wear from very expensive to very inexpensive, and usually will not even humor me by giving an opinion of what I am wearing, says she really likes this one.
I have worn it two days in a row and right now and right now am feeling a little annoyed by it. I feel like I can still smell it, so maybe I put too much on. It does seem to have tenacity. I hope not as much sillage as I am afraid it has.
Big, lasting notes of vanilla and licorice. I would not even say anise, but more a true licorice, which is actually very interesting. Azarro is famous for anise and I think C&S O&C, both of which I really like, and truth told, probably love. This seems a little different on the licorice scale. I know that anise is supposedly a very attractive note to women.
And I am not a huge vanilla fan. Angel and Versace Dreamer havve not turned me on, although Caron seems to do interesting things, I guess in Third Man and Pour Homme. I like Clubman Vanilla, but it does not seem very vanilla to me.
Seems exotic, which is usually very appealing to me. Does have an oriental feel to it. Definitely not run of the mill.
Have not made up my mind about this one, but am fascinated that it appeals to my wife so much. I normally dismiss comments that say a scent gives them a headache, as I do not find that happens to me. But I am not sure that something in this one is not giving me a little bit of a headache. Maybe a sinus type issue. Again, very unusual for me.
Thanks for anyone's thoughts.
