I think there is a vague resemblance to the current crop of Coco Mlle progenies in many of those fragrances, maybe that's it. <br />I should compare the EdM with M side by side, though, what an interesting thought! I would never think of EdM as anything other than woody-dry ambery (with a touch of salty) and very pleasing in the Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-34479817640006180792009-06-08T13:18:51.362+01:002009-06-08T13:18:51.362+01:00L,
