They mention Drakkar Noir! And favorably. Jazz, I think, is just no longer "officially" exported to the US. Hey, did you listen to the “smell safari” radio thing I posted? They mention Drakkar Noir!

Maybe it was more their scent than their personalities!

Haha. It's perhaps dated, yes, but in small quantities I can still see why it was so popular for almost a decade. And as far as I know, YSL Jazz isn't discontinued -- or it was brought back -- I see it on online discounters all the time. I LOVED that about 15 years ago -- or more like 18 years ago, ack! -- and keep meaning to order a small bottle one of these days mostly for nostalgia's sake (as well as some Grey Flannel and Tommy).

Ha! Love that phrase. I believe MITR can be very alluring...but it generally has to be a clean MITR. I actually prefer scent on a man but it needs to be wore with discretion. Faced with a cloud of Axe (or BOD, bod forbid) or a hygeinic MITR, I'll take the 'raw' any day. But a washed-up man, sporting, say, Bigarade Concentree? or Poive Samarcande (sparingly please)....?

Men, please don't believe this is a turn on! Yes, women like me prefer even a toxic cloud of Axe (Lynx over here) to untrammelled armpits! (And, actually, I love to smell a well-scented man. I'd rather they overdid it than confronted me with man-in-the-raw.) In truth, I've never followed a bloke up the street because he smelled so good, but I have trailed after a few women to soak up their sillage (and yes, I always ask).

In my single 20s I had a workplace fling with a guy because his scent drove me wild. (Jazz by YSL. So glad that one's dc'd.) This is exactly why I don't buy cologne for DH.
