“I'm not having quite that kind of a day so far, but hey, I can hardly blame the Eva.” Hee! You know, your taste is so hard to pin down, R. I'm afraid there is nothing about Eva to make me curious, but I too have to mention that the bottle is too durned cute. It looks like an old label on a 50s style jacket, doesn't it?

Thier was a fragrance that my Mother wore called “Tweed” and it was very popular in certain circles… so if you put grey to it I dont think it would matter after all the woman of yesterday is no more and the woman of today “calls shot” out loud taking the mystery away.

I call it Grey Tweed because of the memories of a by gone past.

If it did not work – you could always have it written in French – “Tweed Gris”. Kind of catchie like “Gris Clair”

Grey Tweed – Clear Grey

I understand Clear Grey is selling quite well.

I was thinking about the name too…primarily that if I was going to market something to men in the US, I wouldn't name it Eva. Wonder if “Grey Tweed” is too far in the other direction — would women buy it?

Thank you for your review… For some reason this fragrance makes me think of the 40's 50's – not quite sure why but I do know the name seems all wrong.

I like to call this one…

“Tweed Gris” or “Grey Tweed”

I think it much better than “Eva”

do you not think so too.

Robin, you already know I love this (thanks to Patty). A throw-it-on summer citrus with better lasting power than most and that slightly woody undertone that makes it a little interesting but not heavy.

P, thanks for writing about it, I don't know that I'd ever have tried it otherwise.

It is sort of a sleeper, I'd say, too simple maybe to make a huge first impression. But nice.
