Great website/blog. I tried this yesterday at Aedes on Christopher Street here in New York. I thought it was really fantastic, but when I got home, I wanted to compare it to C.K. Obsession. It’s almost an exact duplicate. The only difference is that C.K.’s version has something in it that gives it a “bite” or “snap” that Oriental Lounge doesn’t have, maybe it’s a wood note, but honestly 220.00 for this compared to Obsession, I can’t justify spending that much money.

Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed the review. It’s good weather for Oriental Lounge now, if it turns out you need a bottle…

Thank you for the review Angela. I love the way you write and how you are drawing (or even painting) the picture of a perfume in words.
I tried Oriental lounge today in one of the few Dutch stores which carry the TDC line. Really liked it, but have to give it a full wearing.

If I had a sample of Cadjmere, I’d test them side by side. Interesting!

Well, not rough-and-tumble country, and not high-concept urban, but crowd-pleasing and easy-to-live-with, but perhaps not life-changing, surburban.

I sniffed this briefly on a test strip and the first thing that came to my mind was,” light version of PG’s Cadjmere.” Did anyone else who has smelled this get that or am I crazy?

“Suburban?” Explain, please, dearest Miss A.

That’s a good one! Then there’s Jolie Rancher or Jolly Wrencher.

It sounds like Sel de Vetiver would be refreshing there, too.
