Well, I agree with the judges about Velvet Hour being the best Celeb fragrance. Hats off to blue pepper! Just tried her Summer number and that is lemon toilet cleaner, sadly, like a cheap knock off of Folavril, which I also found a bit janitorial, it must be said…
Oh no, not Folavril, LOL…now I’m trying to remember what other scent I love that got compared to urinal cakes at MakeupAlley…
Chanel no 5 always smelled like urinal cakes on me, but on other people, magic. Loved Eau Premiere, though, so it’s balanced.
I raced out and got a bottle of Velvet Hour when it was released here in Tasmania-then instantly gave it away! Not me!
Too bad!
Never tried Velvet Hour but I’m on the fence about Chloe. I like it but it can get dryer-sheet-y on me.
Not my cup of tea, personally.
Miller Harris Le Petit Grain – I’ve never heard of that one. I’m imagining a tiny piece of rice….
