Well, I just went to my favourite frags shop and picked up a couple of bargains. Grabbed a 100ml CK one for $29 and a bottle of Kenneth Cole Reaction 100ml for $29 also. Much cheaper than FragranceX pricing so very happy with that.
I decided to get a card of Lolita Lempicka au Masculin - I had heard great things about this, and how some people say it is much different on the card and to not trust that. Early card notes were mossy with a real reference to the Trumper Violets cream, plus a distinct Anise undertone. Definitely scented wierdly to my nose. Decided to transfer from the card to my wrist.
Hail Mary, mother of Jebus (I'm not religious BTW). The Anise disappears and you get this deliciously vanilla-driven Ivy, Sandalwood + Cedar and Vetiver explosion. I called the girl back and asked her to smell the card, then my wrist. She was all over me after that.
Been a long time since anyone was over me like that. She begged me to buy a bottle of it, but at $59 it was not as good value as her specials on the Kenneth Cole and CK one, so I walked out with those instead. If she drops her price lower to get closer to some of the online prices (around $36-$38 pre shipping), I will be back in there like a shot.
Worth a look gents. If Sandalwood & Vanilla works on you, definitely give it a try.
