Oh, all right, I'll smell it on YOU in any social situation... I may not have mentioned it to you, but the last time I tested Cristalle, I noticed a very strong ashtray vibe that disturbed me. Citrus+ashtray? I'll demur, thanks.; August 4, 2010 at 9:20 AM
ChickenFreak said...: Oh! Yes, yes, I remember you saying that. It's odd - I can't smell that note in it at all, but for some reason, I can also see how it would be in there. Does that make any sense?; August 4, 2010 at 5:24 PM

I think that maybe Muse has hit upon why I can love No. 19 and galbanum laden greenery...but Cristalle always makes me pull my head back. Could it be the citrus? To be clear, I am happy to find citrus in many a perfume...but the combo with galbanum ("ash tray")? Now I'm thinking...; August 5, 2010 at 6:37 AM
ChickenFreak said...: Howdy, ScentScelf! Hmmm. I smell very little citrus in Cristalle; maybe that's why I like it? (It would be unfortunate if one of my great fragrance loves were based on something I can't smell. Then again, if I love it, I love it.); August 7, 2010 at 8:12 PM
