And yes, outfitting yachts is just about right ;-) SMN's prices are actually pretty good, and better than the markup we get in the States for most Italian scents.

It makes me feel guilty for ever purchasing more expensive fragrance, probably only having supported the outfitting of yachts or summer chateus. Perhaps historical ones, though?... I'm actually surprised they're not charging more--although, the current price is probably more attractive to larger groups of people, upping the liklihood of a strong response.

I am fairly phobic about melon too. Coconut can go either way. Well, we shall see! And so glad you did not buy Elle unsniffed -- that is a lot of money for a chance! And *exactly* what I spent to buy Osmanthe Yunnan unsniffed, LOL... Oh dear, somehow I managed when formatting the above to entirely miss the melon. I am fairly phobic about melon too.

Also love their very old fashioned & simple "Queen's Cologne/Acqua di Colonia". Melograno is very popular, but not with me, LOL…

It could easily go in the right direction, magnifying the notes I'm most interested in, or it could go to the dark side and amplify the notes I'm phobic about (geranium, melon, etc.). But it does sound wonderfully complex and that predisposes me to be appreciative of it. Oh, and thanks for the Ellie notes update! I'm feeling better about having resisted placing an unsniffed order (came frighteningly close to doing so). I asked the SA at Bendel's about the notes and he commented that the vanilla wasn't too foody, which made me nervous (and prevented the immediate order) since I'd rather not have it be evident at *all*. Add coconut, lotv and cyclamen to that and I'm definitely feeling the need to test it first. My only conclusion after reading all those notes is that I'm going to have to order a sample.
