I was convinced to do so after reading the archives about Carnal Flowers and its potential proximity to TC...thought I should keep up! (ps - unlike everyone else I really like the name CF) Ordered it last night – will let you know.

I couldn't explain why, but I have come to enjoy the opening. Highly recommend that you try it, and don't give up after 1 try. It grows on you. And once you can take those top notes, you can take most anything ;-) Not sure what you mean by are the exports the same as the exclusives...the exports are what you can get at Barneys or Aedes, the exclusives are Europe-only (is that what you meant)? A La Nuit is a gorgeous fragrance. I don't own it and not sure I would wear it frequently, but I admire it greatly. Bluegardenia –

I had just said that of the SL's I smelled the other day, I liked A La Nuit best - the jasmine was beautiful and the spices actually smelled great with it. Having never tried any of the exclusives (are those different from the exports or the same thing?), I am very curious about Criminelle, since I am a tuberose fanatic. But the menthol top note you've described doesn't sound too appealing. Maybe, in fact, the note I object to in the SL's and Angel (also in Flowerbomb and so many other post-Angel scents) IS a menthol note? Not sure. But as you said in your Criminelle review, the menthol note in tuberose is actually true to the flower. After I discovered tuberose fragrances I began ordering tuberoses from Hawaii and was shocked to discover that they reminded me of Desitin, the diaper rash cream. Seriously, a lot. The flower is also MUCH greener smelling than tuberose scents - not as lush or feminine, more medicinal, but still beautiful and definitely narcotic. No problem about the deleting!
