I opened the vial, took a whiff, and just about died (in a good way, obviously). <br /><br />Black Orchid took me some time to appreciate. The first time I smelled that opening blast of ripe fruit, flowers and man's crotch definitely had me scrunching my nose in disgust. Now it's love.Spikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18255263661645642863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2684347516161317491.post-65767962493527327932010-07-07T05:00:38.202+01:002010-07-07T05:00:38.202+01:00Hahaha!

Now, it puts me into a trance of sorts. Dorky dream-like expression on face that's tucked ackwardly into my turtleneck.

All I read online was Serge this Serge that. I thought I try it. But was so new to the world of niche I wasn't ready for it. Now that I have had some time to try different scents, I finally appreciate the artistry of it. I love it now.Gojirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00919393015968476302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2684347516161317491.post-70693236765499670172010-07-06T19:34:03.220+01:002010-07-06T19:34:03.220+01:00I'm embarrassed to say I'm not a big fan o...I'm embarrassed to say I'm not a big fan of Guerlain. It's the bergamot. Why Gerlain, why bergamot at the top of every perfume? I love smoky, jasminy, leather, sandalwood, vanilla in perfumes - just not all served with a lemon citrus twist. I guess it's another thing I'll learn to love eventually.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02521204516836711361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2684347516161317491.post-69749354001778975932010-07-06T19:22:22.172+01:002010-07-06T19:22:22.172+01:00kjanicki, y'know, I think I felt the same way ...kjanicki, y'know, I think I felt the same way about Shalimar.

And lots of other smells and scents. Your descriptions of these perfumes are so evocative. If I could think of a way to turn it into a movie, I would say - do a movie!
