This blog is for rambling about, well, everything that interests me. Gardening. The Farm. Perfume. Fashion. Photography. Fried chicken. Books. Clutter. Hoarding. Sewing. Writing. Murder Mysteries. Bacon. TV. Movies. Restaurants. Cooking. Oh, and don't forget the cat pictures.
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.
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?
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...
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.)
Short answer? Yes.
