...Cryptic:I miss Dolby. :( But since she isn't here I think I'll post some blingees. :twisted: Can tigers eat animated deer?

..."L'Air du Desert Marocain"A friend who only wears fresh, clean florals (and has heretofore stuck up her nose at my spicy/sweet/woody orientals) took a deep breath and said, "Mmmm, what are you wearing today?" I expressed surprise, and she said it smells 'fresh' and is something she would wear. Wait, what?? :shock:This has got to be the most diversely interpreted fragrance on the planet. The reviews run the gamut.

...Lostforest:Jo Loves has shipped free samples to me (earlier this year) and I live in the US. I just emailed and asked nicely, and they sent Orange Tulle, Gardenia and Pomelo.Interesting. Perhaps you can share the name of your contact with Hayven in a PM?

...I just had to share this actual product review that I came across on Amazon:"Good spray bottle - November 15, 2013 By Cathy K. (Colorado) - These bottles are the perfect size. I haven't been able to find bottles this size at the local stores, so I'm glad I checked amazon for them. They were a good price, and they work very well for baking bread and for training my dog. After he got into marijuana for the second time (a $180 vet bill later, he was fine, thankfully), I decided it would be a good idea to keep him from getting into stuff on the ground on our walks. This one is much smaller than the one he chewed up so it wouldn't work anymore (I think it was 32oz), and is easier to carry."some names have been changed to protect the innocent :D

..."Sacrebleu Intense"Out of the gate this was just another jasmine/orange/carnation thing and I scrubbed it off and put my sample aside. Next! Then, this weekend, a couple hours before my shower, I tried it again, knowing I'd be washing it off soon. Much to my surprise, it morphed into something much more oriental and up my alley. (See Fanny's review for an accurate,IMO,and concise description.)

...How about "Chocolat Amere"? I sampled it years ago and remember liking it.I need to sample Borneo too.Have you ever tried "Neonatura Cocon"? I don't recall it being very sweet.

...Tnahowru:Sneezing my head off!Allergy season :oops:I feel for ya.I had a bad cold back in November and immediately began using Neil Med Sinus Rinse. http://www.neilmed.com/usa/sinusrinse_isotonic.phpI got over the cold quickly (unusual for me) and have been using the rinse almost daily ever since for maintenance, and haven't been sick again yet this cold/flu season (also unusual for me). Plus I rarely have sinus headaches anymore, and when I do they are mild and short-lived. A total godsend!For anyone not familiar, it's just saline water than you shoot up your nose while bent over the sink (important to follow directions exactly).

...Did they mention the ingredients anywhere? I couldn't find them.That would be the first thing I'd want to know before even considering it.

...The antithesis! MP expresses joie de vibre like no other, doesn't he?

...Omni,Answer to your original post, second question: I find LB and Mitsouko very similar. I think they each don't appeal to me for the same reason. First question: Yes! I tried harder to find nirvana in Tauer's dry desert woody air like so many others have, but I simply could not. As it develops and settles on my skin I find myself trying to will it to go in another direction, like it's a bowling ball slowly heading for gutter.

...Oh my, so much melancholy, desolation and solitude in Leon's work.

...I have been noticing that as we get to a certain age, many of us start slouching without realizing it, and how poor posture adds years to our looks. I have to consciously remind myself to stand up straight quite often.Today I was walking behind this beautiful women who was, I'd estimate, in her mid fifties, and I noticed she had a fantastic figure, very fit, and was one of the 5% of women who can actually pull off tight fitting yoga pants. And then I saw her in profile and saw that her posture was not good, and it instantly made her seem less attractive and older.Baby boomers, we have to stay on that posture at all times! :D

...Omni:Dulcemio, I was misted in Eau de Vegas, Eau de Nicotine and Eau de Bourbon. Was fun to people watch. Perfume smelt quite cloying in the June heat, testing was a challenge. I mostly wore Eau du Sud and Kelly Caleche EDT but nobody commented favourably or unfavourably because they burn off so quicklyOh the dessert, the lovely, oven-like dessert. You mean you don't love it, Omni, when the air you breath sucks the moisture out of every single thing it comes in contact with? Where body lotion is a joke? And where perfume is vaporized within minutes? "But it's a dry heat!" they say. Yeah? Well, it's tooooo friggin' dry! :lol:

...LOL!!!!!!"I hope my bike takes you straight to hell!" Bwaaaahahaha! I'm gonna pee my pants!

...Cryptic:I kept coming across Robert Brault quotes on Facebook so I looked him up. Some good stuff, IMHO.http://www.goodreads.com/author/quotes/7192677.Robert_BraultOoh, I like him!***Here is some Hunter S. Thompson (pretty sure it's a repeat, but who cares):“Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”
