I don't have the heart to tell him that there's even more in the closet, in my room, etc. Poor man- just doesn't understand fragrance addiction. :) I know the feeling…my Dad just doesn't understand why there's so many bottles on the bathroom counter (my sister and my mom contribute as well).

Don't know if they make one, and not going to go look -- I have too many scented body creams already as it is :-) Agree on the “wonderful bath products”, I'd love to have this in a body cream.

I'm a pretty big fan of tuberose, so maybe that's why, but this feel perfect right now (we're having single-digit weather where I live). It's pretty light, to me, although a bit heady. I wasn't overly impressed with the lasting power yesterday, but maybe I would just becoming used to the smell because I would still catch a whiff of it every once in a while, even though I couldn't smell it off my wrist. Either way, this one is very beautifu. I'm sorely tempted to own a bottle. :) Or at least the body wash...I think this would traslate into some wonderful bath products.

Still haven't seen any signs of the new packaging. Hard to believe they would up the price again so soon! Still haven't seen any signs of the new packaging.

I can't imagine why they would change it again so soon unless they plan to charge more or give less. I so vastly prefer SL Datura Noir that they seem like utterly different fragrances. KM is much lighter and for day wear. DN is bewitching and all-night. They changed the bottle and reduced the amount of juice.

Well, J, if she is actively copying the SL line, I wish she'd get to work on Iris Silver Mist. But seriously, these aren't copies, even if they are "inspired" by the SLs. Loukhoum is a very different fragrance from Rahat Loukoum, and the same with Osmanthus. More like variations on a theme, perhaps. LOL!

I think of it as a spring-like sort of fragrance, but wear it more in winter, I think. Part of my winter-denial strategy ;-) Agree that it is probably too much for a hot summer day.
