I do need to point out that the vanilla is purported to be an aquatic sort too (I guess you can think of Vanille Galante's concept for that note)Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-45312751255552665622011-01-08T19:58:36.114+00:002011-01-08T19:58:36.114+00:00I'm looking forward to your review of this whe...I'm looking forward to your review of this when you test it because there are a good many heavy-hitting notes listed there: will they "sparkle" or "shine" collectively?
