today i bought myself an entire bottle of miller harris l'air de rien. to paraphrase luca turin's review of it: "it smells like the 60s--boozy kisses and tobacco and unwashed panties. i love it."
it was a splurge. here's my to-buy list, although i should probably wait a while before i buy anything more. although, why?
-en passant body cream
-child perfume oil
-donna karan black cashmere
-white linen
-bandit
-cuir de russie
-some light cologne; not sure which one
-more mille et une roses
i haven't been wearing perfume lately. my nose is kind of all dried up, and i haven't been doing much grooming so i figure the smells will get lost. and what do i want to smell like in the summer? salt water. or lake water. maybe i'll try the different company's sel de vetiver or whatever it's called.
should i spend $75 on samples from the perfumed court? or $85 on black cashmere, bandit, and sisley's eau du soir soap?
