Is there any perfume you can name that is unisex but not spicy? Something like Le labo Iris maybe? I am wearing Narcisso Rodriguez for her EDP and Coco Mademoiselle these days.I think I am tired of floral perfumes and need a change especially for winter.<br />banuyanturhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09728140383963952589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-82260815208624420062009-02-14T08:17:00.000+00:002009-02-14T08:17:00.000+00:00Rebecca,thanks for stopping by and commenting!It s...Rebecca,<BR/><BR/>thanks for stopping by and commenting!<BR/>It seems you have found a winner, so never mind us.

I've received countless compliments on how I smell. The initial spray is powerful but after about ten minutes it tones down into a refreshing, zesty scent which is youthful, alluring, and energetic. I like to think of myself in that light. My only problem is that I just now(literally) busted the bottle while I was cleaning my apartment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-92174176568388670762008-10-20T15:04:00.000+01:002008-10-20T15:04:00.000+01:00Simone,LOL, you have a way of describing things wh...Simone,<BR/><BR/>LOL, you have a way of describing things which is very funny and engaging: *loved* the braces ref and the other reference too (touche!).<BR/>It's good that it's sweet without veering into gourmand (sooooo trite).
