Anyway, I still haven't tried it, and as I'm trying to avoid the mall until the Xmas rush is over, it's going to be awhile! Sounds like it's a love it or hate it...

Once the minty fresh headnotes dispappear, it smells exactly like a men's room urinal cake. Yuk! Don't these companies do any consumer testing prior to dishing out millions like that? This is a nauseating scent that will appeal to neither women nor men and is destined for failure. Forest Rain by Kiehl's is literally disgusting!

But I'll be downtown SF over the weekend, I'll check Neiman Marcus for a sniff. I checked out the local Nordies, and they don't have it at their Kiehl's counter.

Give me asphalt and rain! ASPHALT AND RAIN! I live in Portland, Oregon and I am addicted to the smell of the city when it rains. I don't want a rain forest, though! Give me asphalt and rain!

It smells just like peppery roses on the bush (but not like domesticated "rose", if that makes any sense), with lots of leaves covered with spring mist, damp and sharp. I'll be interested to see if this new rain is anything like it. I always knew it as Rain but wound up as Exquisite Rain.
