Yes, they sell Derby at the Paris store. Apparently it's been reformulated, but reports are that it was done very well. Jicky easily available on the web and in department stores. Maybe the parfum is hard to find, but I prefer the edt anyways. I couldn't handle the civet in the pdt.

Well then, another one for the shopping list, probably to be put off for a while.

Back to recent purchases, I'm wearing Azuree again, and found that I have a reformulated bottle. Apparently this was once a blaze of sugary sunlight, slowly dwindling into an citrusy, leathery shimmer. Today it is not quite that, but I'm still enjoying it all the same.

I am still trying to find the happy place between noticeable and obnoxious, and based on my own notes I am either hyposmic to this or still overspraying, and may have to resort to drastic measures. People aren't avoiding me, though, so it could just be my perceptions.

I just got my first shipment from Luckyscents.com & I ordered La Base based on so many good ratings. It's nice but it wears off by noon if not soon & for $135 I'd think it would have much better staying power. I like Chez Bond from Bond of New York line because of it's staying power.

I'm also liking Frank Los Angeles.

just got a bottle of Bandit edt in the mail today. Not sure about this one. It opens well enough, then veers into Amarige territory (ack!) and now, almost an hour after it begins, we are nearing Knize Ten territory.

Last time I tried Knize Ten I effing hated it and gave away my decant. We'll see what comes of this Bandit soon enough.
