While we are on the subject of men's items, would like to post a review for Toxic, a fragrance by FrankBush.com

This is not a light, easy-going, easy-on-the-nose, sweet, or cute scent. This is a truly in-the-garage, fixng up the engine, getting 90-weight grease under your fingernails sort of scent. It really does smell like burning asphalt, rubber, tar and metal. Oddly enough, I found I really like it! (But then again, I have to say I like the odd ones- Bulgari's Black is a huge favorite! I also am very fond of the smell of gun-cleaning oil.)What is really interesting is that I am not a guy! The drydown is similar to what you get when you first put it on, and I like that for this scent. It is an-in-your-face, do-not-ignore-what-I-have-to-say scent. It would be perfect to wear when going to look at a new car, especially at one of those snooty dealerships, where most of the salespeople are men who think women know nothing about cars. When you are feeling downright aggressive, or you know you are going to have to be that way in a particular situation, this is the scent to wear. You can get a sample for only $5.00, and it's a pretty good-sized amount, well worth trying!

I wouldn't worry, the “anti aging” products don't work in the slightest

Interesting take on what Plath would smell like, but I always sort of pictured her with a damp, musty sort of smell, but that could be because I read the Bell Jar and the image of her underground just sort of stuck with me…

If we're going to continue with this artist's series, we must include Pablo neruda. He's my favorite and I can only imagine what that man would smell like…Sensual yet classy, I suppose. And dark. But not as dark as Plath.

As for these shower gels…interesting concept, but these have gag gift for my history major friends written all over them.

Exist…ain't it the truth! From recent experience I can say some in the fragrance industry are pretty LOW indeed! Happy New Year, K

The possibilities are endless, dreaming up perfumes with the arts. I am not even sure where I would begin, or even with which particular art form, had I the means to begin such an endeavor. Everyone's suggestions are great, though. It's a shame that the fragrance industry is not as high-minded as we are.

tchaikovsky- powdery- woody iris or a subtle “masculine” floral

rossini – audacious orange with a heavy resin base

mozart- ultra mild black truffle top with a boozey vanilla and an ebony wood accord (black and white play on piano and classicism)

saint-saens – something Ellena would be inspired by – smokey, airy, heliotrope-y, serious yet playful…..like hermès' persona.

Arthur Schnitzler and Gustav Klimt are Austrian too.

Schiele and Klimt are my favorite artists.

Apparently Nuit d'Amour by Guerlain is inspired by Klimt… but it doesn't really sound right to me. The bottle doesn't really look right to me either.

But speaking of bottles… I don't think this whole warrior thing would be as bad if the packing was a little more… better looking? It'd be kind of like Parfums D'Empire. I'm not really into Zihr's logo either. I guess it's too manly… I like girly men
