Dramming units should be set up by Monday at the latest. You'll be able to sample to your heart's content. :) Don't fret, because we were Fedexed dramming juice of the new Prada today.

Where I live, I don't smell *anything* on the street, so very curious. Is it everywhere, I mean, are you smelling it on the street?

I mean, it's everywhere! Still, it's kind of good, what with the wood and pepper. But it just gets a tad -- cloying -- after a while, to my nose. It's very buttery and sweet.

I did buy the little 30 ml! I tried the Infusion d'Homme only quickly, and unfortunately not next to the Infusion d'Iris, but they seemed VERY similar to me.

I still haven't warmed up to my sample of the edp -- it's very unisex but also much more synthetic smelling than I like. After reading the backstory I hope it does well for them. I've been curious, Robin, did you buy a full bottle? That bit about Infusion d'Homme makes me really eager to try it, and I've not yet sampled Infusion d'Iris even after all the raves I've read. Must add to list. I like Burr's column on Sensuous. I still haven't warmed up to my sample of the edp — it's very unisex but also much more synthetic smelling than I like.

The first couple of times, it smelled almost exactly like Yves Rocher Vanilla and I was really disappointed. Heavier application does bring out the woods and lesson the carmelized sugar, but I think I could easliy use up 5ml or so and still not be sure how much I like it. All the same, I hope it is successful. I wish we could smell the version Burr got to try last November.
