What an honour! ;-) I went to a local John Lewis myself and they have completely removed it from their range... will get it online or in Berlin later this month. It's great when you suddenly remember an affordable and easy to wear scent that you've forgotten you really liked (not that I'd buy scents every day). After my comment? What an honour! ;-)

I was almost disappointed when I smelled my Dolce & Gabbana pour Homme recently in a shop and found it so different from my concentrated, resinous little rest sticking to the base of my bottle. It kind of turned from fougère to oriental, if that makes sense. The Thé Blanc now has quite strong "curry" aspect to it, almost "salty"... maybe it's gone off (?), but I find it intriguing...; ) I know the little bottles. It's actually the size I got for my mum... I didn't have much money then ; ) I think it's 15ml, and it's true they are cute. I see.

You might check Sephora -- they've got some cute little travel bottles of some of the Bvlgaris, although I don't know if they have this one. I'd like to have a travel spray of this one myself.

I was just looking for the Thé Rouge review and came across this one. I gave Thé Blanc to my mum years ago. Now every time I go to see her, I try on Thé Blanc and this article reminded me that the last time I liked it so much that I decided to get it for myself! But somehow I had forgotten about it. I like comfort scents which are not foody, and this one isn't. I've grown a bit weary of gourmands, but unfortunately there is a gourmand aspect to almost every new scent these days, even the last Aqua Allegoria or Hermès jardin ("yawn..."). I like unisex scents. Somehow I get the impression they smell more natural, which is know isn't the case... My mum's bottle is almost empty and it seems to have concentrated by evaporating to a more resinous scent. I noticed the same about another scent I have, of which only a little rest remains. It seems the EdT is more concentrated as when i got it. Maybe the alcohol escapes a little bit by bit over a long time? By the way, i also experienced the overpowering muskiness in hot weather. Best, L Hi,

Though I spritzed some on my wrist anyway to find out how the fragrance would wear, and, much to my surprise, I ended up really liking; however the appreciation didn't come immediately -- I went back to the department store about three times to test it out before I committed. Strange, given that I'm usually very decisive when it comes to fragrance. The fragrance dries down to a soothingly warm, subtle and uncomplicated scent, which to me is only somewhat masculine in the middle. It also has good staying power -- as someone else pointed out, the scent does indeed linger on the skin even after a shower.

Is there any way to make it last longer (I tried sparying it on clothes, but that didn't really help much) I must add that it unfortunately doesn't last very long, barely an hour or two…does someone know why that is the case with some scents?
