When I sprayed it on myself, my reaction was like an old TV commercial about an insecticide: RAID!!! (That was the roach killer in vogue at the time) I was stunned as it had smelled so wonderful. But, I immediately gave it away with great sadness to NadineisthatUhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02014282612899951591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-11888781922903114752008-02-27T18:32:00.000+00:002008-02-27T18:32:00.000+00:00N,you have a most discerning mom!

Although i don't know all of the above mentioned scents, i'd like to add a comment: my mum wears Paco Rabanne's La Nuit like noone else, she still has some left in a big bottle of the pure perfume back from the glory days but i hated it also, when it came out first. Later i came to steal some drops every now and then when i was going out for an important date... ;-) Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-13998519540974738902008-02-27T00:01:00.000+00:002008-02-27T00:01:00.000+00:00Montana's Parfum de Peau is magic to me and very d...Montana's Parfum de Peau is magic to me and very dear to my heart.. (reviewed it last mother's day if you recall and now can't believe it's been so long since we've 'found each other' again!) I hope I'll never be without a bottle ever again, the stuff is powerful, sexy, dirrrrty, confident, yummy, scary... just wow.

I've loved Aramis back in the day (and boy, is he Cabochard's brother!), and I still have a soft spot for it. A La Nuit must be divine, if LT calls it the sexiest since Cabochard, because to me, that is the sexiest ever. Must smell, must smell. I will hopefully get to try some of the other ones Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-30428166066530779902008-02-26T18:50:00.000+00:002008-02-26T18:50:00.000+00:00Dear N,thank you very much for your compliment.

I adore Yatagan and would probably follow any man who could successfully wear this to the ends of the earth. Antaeus was a fav back in the day. I just acquired a bottle of Azuree and love her rather large outdoors sunlit mossy nature but La Nuit!

I've always thought of it as a guilty pleasure, but you've given me the courage to come out of the closet ;-)<BR/><BR/>I love your choice of scents for this theme. All of the ones I know do say "bruiser" to me, mostly in a good way. I have adored Aramis since I was a little girl. BitterGracehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18262639525430954930noreply@blogger.com
