I did not purchase the fragrance--it isn't that great (the bottle is very pretty). But, in parfum form you could not smell it after 20 minutes on the skin. I was really disappointed. So, I purchased two Seurge Leutens instead....they are about $30 less over there. I just stared reading Parfum: The Guide. Love it! I'm back and reading up on everything I have missed here!

Well, perhaps that is why these are conceived as LEs...if they shake the customer base, they'll disappear. Interesting.

The daytime scent is more Malone but the evening scent is a bit more complex than I am used to in a JM fragrance. It's not a radical departure but there are subtle shifts. The earlier fragrances always seemed more linear. I wouldn't know this was a Malone...and I'm not sure if that's a good thing for the brand. It's a nice fragrance and I'm enjoying the sample but there are other fragrances of this type that are more interestingly conceived. Not weird at all – I know exactly what you mean.

The Lotus (daytime) is okay but there is an oily roundness to it that doesn't work for me (I find that in a lot of lotus-y scents. It's not unpleasant - just doesn't work for my psyche). REALLY like the night scent - the amber isn't strong and the incense and ginger really comes through nicely on the drydown. I was afraid it would be overwhelming but it's not.

I prefer the day one. Its very light but quite refreshing. The night one is too heavly laced with ginger. I have tried these fragrances. I prefer the day one. Its very light but quite refreshing.

Had no idea White Rose was that spendy, ouch! I've never smelled it, and in that case perhaps I'd best not :-) Late reply so I've probably missed you, but have a wonderful trip!!

Don't think I travel like this all the time. My husband and I are trying to see a few places before we settle down and have children. I'm hoping to come back with a bottle of white rose...but $220 a bottle?!? What can I do to get this sold in the US? It just seems too great of a fragrance to limit.
