My family is Baptist. Maybe that means that I should find the smell of snake venom oddly soothing. Ha! I kid. No snake handling at our service growing up. If only.

I ended up getting the Lys du Desert (my sister bought back from LA to me in the UK)which I prefer to L'Air du Desert as it is slightly sweeter and a good "everyday" fragrance.

Are there any other perfumes that have a pronounced "mud" note like mitti?
