My mother was French so I actually like to think of it as a positive thing, she passed away when we were very young, and I like to think of it as a connection for my brother and I to her.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12095625947716520270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-81050776165690506692009-08-24T15:03:44.441+01:002009-08-24T15:03:44.441+01:00I,

I can't imagine anyone more suited to that scenario and it's fun to happen upon someone who thought this was sexy.

I usually point these out when I can. <br />The other day I came across a quote on Justin Timberlake launching his own fragrance, Play. No mention of Givenchy behind it! It looks like hiring a celebrity to front your fragrance might backfire in more ways Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-75624423876732932472009-08-23T13:34:38.572+01:002009-08-23T13:34:38.572+01:00R,

I can see how lots of Brut could clear hallways, it always seemed so strong. Axe is much worse though to me, because they use this synthetic (dihydromercynol) that pierces the nose and singes the hair, probably to aid to the diffusion since these are such "unstabstantial" formulae.Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-62127986359967909562009-08-23T13:32:43.252+01:002009-08-23T13:32:43.252+01:00M,

And I sense your frustration :-) <br />I recall Brut from my father who flirted with it for "a brief moon" before coming back to his Paco Rabanne and Azzaro. It was pungent, distinctive and could be disastrous if overapplied. Fond memories! Enjoy the "pits" scent!! :-))<br /><br />Hugs!Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-83151556858320037872009-08-23T13:13:11.425+01:002009-08-23T13:13:11.425+01:00Morning, Helg -

The hallways were ripe with the smell of it, mixed with the equally ripe smell of teenage boys, erp! Now I work in a high school, and the boys reek of Axe body spray. I don't really see an improvement. :)rosaritahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08543786960335162711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-3173301066404410112009-08-23T09:50:02.868+01:002009-08-23T09:50:02.868+01:00I think I have told you before Helg that my husban...I think I have told you before Helg that my husband will not wear aftershave - with Fathers Day coming up here - my daughter and I never waste our money buying him it anymore as it sat in cupboards unused for years.
