I wonder if they will distribute it here. I don't think they distributed the last 2 PR scents here, or if they did, not very widely. Interesting, thanks! I wonder if they will distribute it here.

The bottle looks a bit tacky to me. But then again I like glass bottles and some people like new stuff, so I won't dwell. But the scent is unusually floral and feminine to be a guy's scent. It is like a watered down COCO by Chanel with all its 80's glory! And it lingers...I had to wash it off my wrist. I could see this fragarnce marketed for a man by a "niche" perfumer, but hardly by Paco Rabanne which is mass distribution (at least in Europe) I honestly don't think it will do well across the pond. Definitely more a feminine fragrance! I'm currently in Paris and I tried it today at Sephora.

Here in Sydney - at Bondi Junction. The bottle disappoints slightly in real life but what really crushed me was the juice :( I really wanted to like it! But it smells awful on me - all I get is a blast of mint and some sort of spice; everything else is drowned out by the screeching mint. So sad :((( It's out it's out!

It also reminded me of Gaultier Puissance 2. I thought it was more gourmand though. They both have this "plasticiser" note, which I love – reminds me of my childhood. E.g. the He-Man figures my brother used to have as a kid, the "Masters of the Universe", they smelled like this when they were new. I'm not joking! It's true.

It's Gaultier2! Is there rose in that one too? It isn't *exactly* like it, but it's very similar...to my nose anyway. I wonder if anyone else will agree.
