Laura:
The fun of fragrance reviews is that they sharply contrast for the same scent but are generally much briefer than movie or book reviews. I try to triangulate to imagine what could create such divergent views. An example of some from one fragrance:
<<<I
love this fragrance, I put it on and immediately imagine myself as
being rich and powerful....for me it is a an amazingly masculine
fragrance thanks SL>>>
<<<This
is almost a carbon copy of The Body Shop's White Musk, which costs a
fraction of the price. A pleasant, light and clean musk.>>>
<<<If ever there were a scent that smelled like Bigfoot's penis, this would be IT.>>>
[TM here: I have no desire whatsoever to ever experience anything that would elicit this reaction from me...or, probably, from anyone else.]
Another fragrance:
<<<This is
extraordinary. It's understated and exceptionally elegant. I've received
more compliments on this perfume than any other.>>>
<<<Exotic dancer
turned gold-digging wife of an oil baron shows up late and slightly
drunk to a luncheon at the country club. This is the perfume she wears.>>>
And another fragrance:
<<<I bought a small bottle (don't know if it's still offered) in December, have used half of it. I think it's my favorite daytime scent. Gasoline? Fart? It has a hard edge initially that I like very much. Something metallic. And then on me it dries down to the smell of old wood left to the elements.>>>

Angela Sanders, who is in one of my mystery writing critique groups, writes this sort of thing for a blog called Now Smell This. I'm sure you'll want to check it out.
Thanks! Laura is impressed by Angela Sanders's blog.

Or would be a Very Very bad name for a rock band. Hence the attraction. For a sweet dance orchestra, even worse. LAWRENCE WELK MEMORIES provided by Bigfoot's Penis, now on the Lido Deck.
