What were these people thinking - she was literally a child of the streets, and I certainly wouldn't associate her with prim flowerbeds or raspberries. Maybe if they came from a vendor's cart, with an underpinning of street odors, and the smoke and booze of a hole-in-the-wall bistro. You've got it right - Bandit, Tabac Blond, or Jasmin et Cigarette would be more appropriate to represent her.

My grandmother wore hats like that... sadly, they didn't survive the years (wire inside them bent, or dry rot ruined the fabric).<br /><br />I'm currently in the process of swapping for a sample of this and am looking forward to it. I liked Paris, at least the current version, but not Lipstick Rose. And I've found that some scents can read "too young" or "too sweet" for my taste, but I have yet to run across one that's "too feminine" for me.<br /><br />I enjoy your perfume posts! I should visit more often, but makeup's just not my thing... I buy makeup at the drugstore and save my pennies for perfume.Mals86https://www.blogger.com/profile/09757305840611623427noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-76815401536449103722009-09-17T08:37:37.683-04:002009-09-17T08:37:37.683-04:00I win...I got my FB of La Mome as a freebie/extra ...I win...I got my FB of La Mome as a freebie/extra in an MUA swap...if I only could bring myself to spray it on skin !waftbyCarolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14784265823926668236noreply@blogger.com
