That did not happen in this case, however. <br /><br />Oh well, wouldn't we all be in trouble if we fell madly in love with every perfume we tried! The same holds for relationships, it seems to me: imagine if everyone else fell for our vSO! ;-)--I got that acronym from you, btw, Undina! sherapophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14116821928196122529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2106815346229702986.post-59484544053932907892013-07-30T16:09:06.348-07:002013-07-30T16:09:06.348-07:00Hmm...

This one wasn't even close to an acceptable perfume for me.Undinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292100499371921334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2106815346229702986.post-74129185953130793292013-07-24T06:06:03.986-07:002013-07-24T06:06:03.986-07:00I had a feeling that you might like this one, Deb!...I had a feeling that you might like this one, Deb! ;-) <br /><br />I have not tried the liquid perfume, but I cannot say that I have a lot of motivation to do so at this point, having read your review and others' as well. I was pretty sure that Le Grand Serge had snuck some cumin into this one, though it's not listed among the notes. He seems to have a veritable cumin penchant. lol<br /><br />Some people have claimed to detect civet. To me, it's just a homeless man's dirty jeans. I was going to make the first line "dirty underwear", a phrase which fortuitously--and felicitously--happens to contain five syllables! But then I decided that it was ambiguous and might make people think of a lady's soiled lingerie, whereas to me, this was definitely a homeless man's dirty jeans!<br /><br />sherapophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14116821928196122529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2106815346229702986.post-91962627781763816112013-07-24T05:36:32.862-07:002013-07-24T05:36:32.862-07:00Whereas my meager little review only suggested it&...Whereas my meager little review only suggested it's badness, this evokes the badness in a big way!
