The One that got away...

A subtle yet glorious true wet stargazer/ "Easter" lily that is both solemn and filled with proper religious association and yet sensual, haunting and zen-like blended with just a pinch of clove and pepper grounding it like an afternoon naked hookah party in an English garden. I yearn for her return, like my miss spent youth. One of only 5 out of 50 fragrances I have ever been complemented on wearing by a total stranger. At this point I would give up 45 of the 50 fragrance I own for a full sealed bottle. The one that got away....

StarGazer Fun

This to me is everything I have been looking for as far as a stargazer fragrance. And thanks to my good friend I have been able to experience it.
Every time I go to the market I walk past the florist stand and go directly to the stargazers. I lean in deep and breath that beautiful pungent floral. I always leave with the yellow pollen all over my nose and forehead. And my husband laughs every time! I don't care if I look like an ass, my face smells fantastic! This reminds me of that along with a bit of citrus blossoms mixed in it. Even though they are not part of the makeup that's what I get from it. I also like how the musk is very subtle but yet present. January is the time that stargazers are ready by bulbs for purchase now I don't have to wait I can just spritz myself. I wish I had a home fragrance of this stuff.

More Easter than Spice Drawer

I approached Penhaligon LILY & SPICE with some trepidation, as the explicit mention of "spice" immediately called to mind "spice drawer" fumes, which I find too heavy handed. Happily, my worries were for naught.

LILY & SPICE is a beautiful floral composition in which lily looms VERY LARGE, and the spices--especially saffron--serve as complements. The saffron is definitely stronger than the clove here, which is a relief, since I easily o.d. on that note.

It's not really possible to wear this very longlasting, big sillage floral edp--verging on perfume--without thinking of Easter. Lilies are literally everywhere. The wearer is transported on and through a fluffy cloud of lily petals for hours! I like this one a lot--though it's officially a stinker (which, by the way, is a term of endearment in my perfume lexicon)--and may acquire a full bottle at some point, as I have a relative dearth of lily perfumes in my collection.
