They gave samples, but I didn't want any around me that didn't have to do with me. But, I liked this male fragrance, once, and I knew nothing about men's fragrances, so while women recognize the bottles of their fragrance houses, I thought the name of the cologne for men was 'Pour Homme.' So when I was back in town with a sister to pick up some Le Dix, I asked to see the Pour Homme, as well, as we had a gift to take care of. Thank the lord he explained that they were all Pour Homme, and when I spoke the year he knew the ones he had put out to speak of at the time, and we located the correct one and gave it as a gift. Now, don't remember its name, as it was recommended for someone else. So, what was the best seller for 'discriminating' men in 1981, I wonder. <br />Only other time I ever bought for a man was also late 80's, early '90s, at the Salvadore Dali Museum. I have always worn the Original as designed by Dali, but they didn't have that, had a bunch of others, I didn't like. Something about an estate issue, I think. Anyway, I found the original Dali for Men., and gave it to an artist friend. I die to hear how it is described on some youtube sights. It is an entertaining world out there, n'est pas?NadineisthatUhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02014282612899951591noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-12457163840039844522012-05-18T16:46:56.257-04:002012-05-18T16:46:56.257-04:00Knize 10 is, indeed, divine.

...Oh, Bel Ami is wonderful. I also love Equipage. <br /><br />Both the husband and I love and wear L'Eau Trois, so I'm taking notice.

He was wary of it at first, but now he loves it, and he smells divine!

The Liu sounds like a must-try, (I love patchouli, your review is fabulous). <br /><br />Two men's scents I adore are Bel Ami by Hermes (vintage version) and Life Essence by Fendi. Gaia, if you enjoy herbal/resin scents like L' Eau Trois, Life Essence may appeal to you. It's beautiful and elegant, with notes of cardamon, coriander, laurel leaves, cedar, moss and labdanum.Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04799815810869706346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27044110.post-57233214366085360892012-05-16T23:50:34.383-04:002012-05-16T23:50:34.383-04:00Am I validating my boy cred by loving the picture ...Am I validating my boy cred by loving the picture of the vintage Olds Toronado on front of one of the Bungalows at the Arizona Biltmore?tmp00https://www.blogger.com/profile/07394341047945443955noreply@blogger.com
