Ok, here is the scoop on the scents available at AD…for her to use,
my wife’s conclusions (she enjoys a more complex scent):
Cookie - Scent is sweet and attractive, reminds me of baking sweet cookies with mom. I LIKE IT FOR MYSELF! ![]()
Coconut and Vanilla: Scent is too strong, smells cheap…
Grapefruit: Scent is decent, not overbearing, does smell like grapefruit, but low in tone. thumbs up
Neroli: It’s citrusy, though to her, it’s a tad more of a masculine scent. When Layered with Grapefruit, thumbs up
Chocolatini: Has a scent that seems to be almost like cinnamon. A cinnamon toned light milk chocolate. To my surprise, she’s Ok, with it, doesn’t like it by itself, and layered with Neroli or Grapefruit, both lose points and are a neg for her olfactory disposition!
Akuto: Very masculine scent, musky, and deep.
So, I called and spoke with Steve, he was having a bad day this morning, poor guy! Hope he gets some time off to unwind from it all!
He was able to help me out with this custom order. He was as genteel and helpful as always!
Here is what I got:
IH*2 strength - With Grapefruit and the Default Neroli mixed in 20% fragrance. (Shoulda’ listened to Bella from the beginning…she has a 6th scents about these things!!!
)
IS regular - With Neroli, in 6 % fragrance.
Both will be her gifts, IH will be more of her everyday fragrance and the IS with the lighter fragrance can be used with the IH or with her Prada as a cover scent. I’ve finished my letter, but, as usual, am trying to tweak words and phrases to make it better…
Steve says he can’t guarantee it will be ready by the next weekend, because it’s a custom order, but will do what he can! Such a great guy!!!
I’ve already given her an IS/b togo, I took off the label and used a permanent marker and labeled the bottom, IS/b 1.2b, for her to try out during the day and seems to get her perky and alert for the day…
Thank you all for you interest and will still revisit the fragrances as well! I have several P’s with different fragrances to test out!!!
