   Interesting. I wouldn’t have guessed Mira Nair was the director. Love her, though her collaborration with Thurman (and Juliette Lewis) on her HBO film “Hysterical Blindness” a few years back was really awful.

   Is it true the original Ange ou Démon is total crap? I think I’ve read some truly horrific things about it.

     I don’t know if it’s crap, but I kind of like the body creme of the original AoD. The drydown is immediately apparent (rich, gourmand floral). I tried the juice and it was hit or miss every time I tried.

     It’s not total crap but just kind of smells like they mixed some of their other stuff together and watered it down. I have a huge amount of it (gift) and wear it sometimes and it’s fine. I do very well in most Givenchy scents, though, so I am probably not the best person to ask.

   Am I the only one who thinks this is a lot of hoopla over a flanker?

   I really felt assaulted by the original, so I’m not sure Uma’s going to make me change my mind.

     It’s more hoopla than they made over the original, I think. Which I assume means the original did not do well and they’d like to recoup some of their losses?

   The only thing I got out of this was gritted teeth from the annoying (to put it mildly) ‘singing’ going on the whole time in the background.

   Uma has always had a certain grace about her, even when she’s holding a sword. This campaign is really cool. Go Uma….

   I have AoD in both EDP and Parfum and keep them in the guest bath. The parfum is definitely more wearable.
