My tastes keep evolving after all. Was thinking of you today: I was at a discounter in Amsterdam and found Brit Red body lotion for about 9 euro. My bottle finished a long time ago and applied some for the tester wistfully. Made me think of you since you also share this love of mine.

Yves Rocher is famed for producing realistic florals, but even their Chevrefeulle doesn't come close to the glory of the real thing.

Thankfully - I can wear both. Too bad neither of them are cheap.<br /><br />BTW - the Jasmine is nice. A sweet jasmine tea - almost honeysuckle thing.

Did it evoke similar images for you as it did for me? (buttoned-up sex appeal, two-piece-killer-heels combo)?? Love to hear your thoughts.

Here in the Netherlands the boutique prada perfumes are only sold at a parfumerie in the city of Haarlem and the owner is a MEGA-A$$hole. I am really sorry for the language, but he is, AWFUL.
