I am having a minor scrub debate with myself but I think I'll ride it out. Funny thing is that when I smell myself, I somehow am smelling many women, like I have had women in my life who wore this (I get that with Mitsouko big time, but it is a more pleasant experience). Maybe smells like this are so prevalent in department stores that I associate it with well-coiffed shoppers. Anyway, I am not happy about this - too melon-y and aquatic. I'm glad it's chilly because if it was hot out I'd be in the shower now. I just stuck my arm under my housemate's nose and he made a face and said blecch, too strong. Okay, scrubbing now.... drat.

The scent and the botle! I always suffer when it gets hot in the City and the only perfume I was able to use was Chance Chanel. But after few summers with Chance I was getting bored.Then I discovered Vivara. It's beautiful, fresh, clean, not overhelming and it when it dries down there is something masculine about it. Maybe that's why I like it so much. I absolutely love it!!! The scent and the botle! I always suffer when it gets hot in the City and the only perfume I was able to use was Chance Chanel.

I'm a perfumista in training). Something in there make my nose twitch - perhaps the "fresh water"? So now I have a vial of vile. Anyone want it?

And if you don't even like the bottle, no need to smell it, is there ;-) If you loved the original chypre — which I've never even smelled — would bet any amount of money you aren't going to like this.

And now I'm scared of sniffing the juice because I loved the original so much c.1973. Why, oh why, do they insist on resurrecting - and destroying - old scents? I pity people who have never smelled the original Je Reviens, Rumeur, etc., and judge those scents by their pale imitations. The fact that I have makes me feel better about being sooooo old.
