For yesterday (a normal day where I had only made dinner and processed the laundry), my scents of the day Heure Bleue and Attrape-Coeur were metaphorically tossed on to the "craft shop" scrap heap. It is heartbreaking really.

Very elegant, in any case. But will he like it so well if you don't iron his shirts, LOL? I have given it 2 quick tries, but still haven't made up my mind. Very elegant, in any case.

Whisper soft, silky - like an unrumpled satin teddy, to slightly adapt Angela's description of Rochas Femme. Oh boy, this is love! My near anosmic partner (his goodwill admittedly fuelled by the fact that this morning I fixed his SatNav, ironed him a shirt, found him some bubble bath and set him up an email account), actually said he "quite liked it", before quickly getting a grip and downgrading this compliment to: "I mean it is inoffensive". Trust me, guys, this is a HUGE accolade. Not unlike his comment on La Pausa, if any of you recall, which was that it was "not like fly spray". Go get it! The BN community has renamed this one "Sable Blond" by the way - much more refined!

Not sure they need to do 2 a year, but gosh, everyone else is doing more than that. It will be interesting to see how big the line gets, no?
