...I think I have to agree with Chanel Cuir de Russie Parfum. I think you can only feel underdressed wearing this. :wink:

...I have an antique sort of standing desk with a wooden lid to close everything. It's a chaotic system. I often rearrange things on a 'I need new space' basis. I like opening the wooden lid and see all my 'lovelies' crowded in front of me. :) I have boxes in the basement for back-ups and so forth.

...Gourmands are often tricky territory for myself, but I agree with a dark, smoky vanilla.

...Hi there :wink:

...Let's not forget Tabac Blond! Its chypré character is still clearly identifiable, although this is not its main thrill for me.

...I have a bunch of samples somewhere. I find her style 'unremarkable' or 'forgettable' to put it less politely.

...Most of all, I'd say Histoires de Parfums' 1725 Casanova, which has a bit the Le Male for grown-ups feel for me. :D Although there is nothing wrong in principle with Le Male... 'cleverly used' that is.

...I have always felt that Mouchoir de Monsieur would fit Dorian Gray. It's a very traditional Eau-style fragrance, but beguiling and very sexy up close in the base.
