There are lots of great suggestions in the comments to the article, too. (If this link doesn't work, just put "wedding perfume" in the search bar, and the article will be the first entry that comes up. Also, per your camping perfume question, the Nuits d'Hadrien has cypress in it, which is why I thought of it for camping. Also, (see, now I'm thinking about outdoor scents) what about Guerlain Vetiver?

I also have Goutal's Eau d'Hadrien, which I'd forgotten about. I will try Les Nuits d'Hadrien. Thanks for the suggestions! I also have Goutal's Eau d'Hadrien, which I'd forgotten about.

The Tauer scent packs a punch, FYI--the Goutal might be a little gentler. Goutal's L'Eau d'Hadrien might be perfect, too, citrusy and clean, but not particularly cologne-y.

I'm a big outdoors fan from the pacific northwest but still want to smell fresh and good to my significant other on these outings. Most of the men I date want an all natural woman, but I can't bear going without any scent at all. What might work? Some of the fragrances I've tried have been Escada Sport Country Weekend (seems a bit heavy), Eau de Kinzo, Caudelie's Fleur de Vigne. Anyone have any other suggestions?

The name is certainly spot-on for opera. I will take your advice and start my hunt for a sniff of Teatro alla Scala! The name is certainly spot-on for opera.

About four hours later, I smell traces of it, it's definitely fading--but not horrible lasting power. I like Safran Troublant, too, but it is decidedly sweeter and more gourmand to me.

Good to hear about Piment Brulant - I love the sound of the notes, but everybody seems to be big on the Safran Troublant in particular, and complain about Brulant's lasting power.

I have never been to the Opera (planning on attending soon though), but I always thought, since having smelt it once in the late 80's or veeery early nineties, that Teatro alla Scala, by Krizia was dead on. It seems it was designed to evoke memories of a night at the Scala theatre in Milan. I used the bath/shower gel.. it was TRULY intoxicating in the most positive way.... If you can find a vintage bottle... Go for it. Dear Angela, beautiful article!!!
