I really loved Michael, was iffy on the original Island, never tried Fiji, liked Hawaii (got a sample of it, thought about buying it, but then it just got too overbearing). I bought 50 mL of Capri, and so far, I really like it. It is nice and fresh for me.

Ah, beeswax sounds nice for cleaning! I don't mind lemon perfumes at all, maybe because really most of my cleaners aren't lemon anyway (?)

Burning Leaves is great stuff.

You could be right! Rare black leather is ludicrous.

I'm glad I'm not the only who laughed out loud and almost got an injury from rolling my eyes over “hydroponic honeysuckle”. I honestly don't think it's a shorthand for anything other making the notes copy fit in with the “theme” of the scent.

I still laugh thinking about the post here many months ago that contained copy listing a “rare black leather accord” — I don't remember the scent, but the reaction was hilarious.

In the intercultural smells department, I seem to recall reading somewhere (here?) that in Europe (France?) that beeswax is the ubiquitous cleaning agent ingredient, not lemon. I could have my facts all confused, though. Orange blossom sounds like a lovely scent for babies, though.

I have not smelled that particular CB – I have mixed feelings about the whole burning leaves thing.

Michael Kors Island sounds as boring to me as Davidoff Cool Water Woman.

Guess that this is afragrance that needs layering..not a positive remark.

I never tried any scent by Michael Kors but the Islands with a name do sound attractive. Don't even know if they are available in Europe. Maybe I have seen MK without actually 'seeing' it..

The other day I walked past a table with all kinds of Italian fragrances that I had never heard of before. There is still a lot to discover and what I would really like is to find That One Fragrance that is unsurpassable by any other… oh well maybe that is why we keep trying new ones

You know, I see “hydroponic” in scent descriptions more & more frequently. At first I dismissed it as random silliness, but now am seeing it so often that I wonder if it is shorthand for something meaningful. Will have to see if I can find out.
