It is one of the few (only?) tropical flower fragrances that I wear regularly. Don't get me wrong, I love the smell of white flowers (I exclude jasmine here as it's in many, many perfumes), but they usually overwhelm me and become cloying. <br />Thanks!<br />DonnaRappleyeanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-21183409336651768222010-11-03T21:28:11.431+00:002010-11-03T21:28:11.431+00:00S,
