I like to think I'm providing a public service warning people away from the stuff.<br /><br />@Bibi<br />Well...I don't have any experience with boar taint (thank goodness) but I'm kinda getting an idea what it might smell like now. I swear this stuff was physically painful to smell.<br /><br />@Ann<br />The perils of blog reading on the bus. <br /><br />@Beth<br />I hadn't noticed what I'd done there until you and Bibi pointed it out. *face palm*<br /><br />@Veronica<br />I'd wear Eau de Guiness if they made one! It could go gourmand with a chocolate note. Mmmm, stout and chocolate.

I bet somebody received it as a gift & donated it.<br />I have never smelled a perfume that listed champagne as a note that smelled even remotely like champagne.<br />Fake fruity stuff that smells like Jolly Ranchers ain't for me either.<br />someone on Fragrantica compared the stench to 'boar taint.' <br />Ew.Bibi Maizoonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07383381158640915162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7189165.post-45956705437722728152017-07-14T09:59:12.288-07:002017-07-14T09:59:12.288-07:00That was a brilliant review.
