Date: 2/25/08 Weather: 38 degrees, clear
Comments: Starts woody and green. A piney note (maybe the lemon?). After 3 minutes, becomes slightly powdery and sweeter. There is a “freshness” to this one that is ridiculously appealing. Vanilla and flowers begin to make an appearance 15 minutes in. 1.5 hours in – more floral, still slightly powdery with vetiver and a bit of leather. 2.5 hours in – vetiver, vanilla, flowers, hint of leather (just enough to make it interesting). Also becomes close-wearing. Develops a slight soapy note 3.5 hours in, but still a close-wearing vetiver, vanilla leather. 4.5 hours in – saddle leather with a bit of saddle soap. Pretty much gone at this point unless I stick nose to wrist and concentrate really hard. There is a vanilla/leather scent coming up from my shirt, though that is really fabulous. My favorite Guerlain so far.

Comments: I heart this stuff. Lavender, then the Guerlinade. I’ve worn it a few times at night between the last date and this one and continue to be floored by how much I love the lavender top and the vanillic drydown. Wish it lasted longer – still get only 4.5 hours out of an application. A full bottle is definitely in my future since I’m practically down to my last drops and want more.

Comments: Lavender and guerlainade. Green, spicy, picking up a hint of leather this time. Is close wearing – even in the early going.
Date: 2/25/09 Weather: 43 degrees, sunny
Comments: Lavender and spices and musk. Get a leathery note. Little guerlainade. Still disappears quickly.

re-apply like MAD or find some Parfum, which is strnger, more lasting and much naughtier.
This is one of my summer favorites too. Inbetween the dirty bits, it’s relaxingly sexy.
I may have to try the Parfum, but I’ll admit, I like the EdT as it is. I’m not sure I’d want my Jicky dirtier. And reapplication is not a hardship 😉
