I think the darkness is conveyed through concept more than smell itself. <br /><br />Lily has a spicy and somewhat briny feel. Lys Med captures it perfectly ( my fav lily by far). Not exactly salami, wouldn't go that far... and less dirty than Perfumeshrinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06222733129203280662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-3897322998436968922013-06-28T10:29:34.274+01:002013-06-28T10:29:34.274+01:00Dearest Shrine

Rather than being clean and cold, lily has a dirty salami note (as per Luca Turin) - so it will be interesting to see whether that's out of the picture or not. In addition, lily + fresh was done superbly by Lys Mediterranee (lily and marine), yielding a happy, carefree caciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17902017914305322799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3792393342962796253.post-35709718132005110492013-06-27T15:40:19.750+01:002013-06-27T15:40:19.750+01:00this one is very intriguing to me..."dark&quo...this one is very intriguing to me..."dark" lily + incense, mmmmm.nofixedstarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15514617120008201743noreply@blogger.com
