However, this perfume is the perfume I always get compliments on. I guess it goes with my body chemistry. Today , I rarely find it in the states !

There was a small 30ml bottle spray from what I recall which sounds like the perfect introductory size. It was a very cute little bottle too.Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-57987105208952735072011-03-21T02:16:49.459+00:002011-03-21T02:16:49.459+00:00How interesting.

It's unjustly ignored. It's quite something. It does cross the boundary between humid (apt term!) and orientalised fruity, a unique combo. <br />As to Eau d'Eden, will review it soon, it's too good not to indeed.

Every so often I pull it out of the drawer & sniff a dab. So very, very dense and...humid. Eau d'Eden, on the other hand, is one of the few 'aquatics' I've encountered to reproduce a sense of 'watery' rather than screechy. I use my vintage bottle sparingly & have one backup.

Fruity and aquatic in a very unusual context. I doubt it would catch on with the people who were either after fruity or after aquatic which explains why it didn't go down so well. <br /><br />If you haven't yet, do try to sample <i>Eau d'Eden</i> Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-32118459385184705952011-03-20T01:33:18.684+00:002011-03-20T01:33:18.684+00:00Nice review!
