    I think it's like $189? Don't know about other sizes.

    That said i really think its a very well produced perfume. I know they really took the time to work on it. Its not just another "product" on which a designer puts his name and basta. Clearly had the BBS dna in it.
    Eh. Really doesn't register that masculine to me. Compared to Beaufort 1805, for instance, it's pretty light. It's more on the CDG Black scale to me.

      Small side-step here, but it is interesting how the more fragrances you sniff and experience, the less you connect them with a specific sex. The rules set up by the culture you live somehow loosen up after time and you simply experience scents for what it is (based on scent only, and not on preconceptions of it).

      I'm quite liberal when it comes to wearing fragrance, but still there are are borders I cannot cross scent-wise, but butch-leather (only guessing here, still waiting to sniff it) is for everyone, come on! :)

      Contradicting some of what I just said, masculine-oriented often seems to work much better on females than the other way around.

        Well, I guess this was inevitable.

          Actually, it's not a heavy scent at all as you (rightfully, given BBS body of work) imagine. I would never call it masculine.

                  Use one atomizer per fragrance, don't fill it with something else once it runs empty.
                  Appreciate the advice! I ended up ordering this http://www.perfume-pod.com/product/ and it seems pretty good so far - easy to fill, no leaks and a fine spray.. Gonna travel with it for the first time tomorrow, let's see how it fares.

                    I've used this one by kilian for the past 2 or 3 years, though now I've not worn anything at all for a while.

                      eloquent: Quite nice choice, smooth as the softest fabric and bears a resemblance to the most excellent YSL M7.

                        Thanks for this! I've been looking for something to fill the void since my bottle of the original M7 ran out last year. The killian fits nicely (although I wish it had a bit more leather). I swore off buying more fragrance this year, but will likely pick this up.

                            Anyone have pictures of the stands that come with the different type of Goti fragrances? each element comes with a bronze? base.. they look really cool. Also Does anyone have a photo of the large Fragrance case you have to pay extra for?

                              I am happy to report that a dedicated fragrance writer joined our team! His first report is on Parfums Quartana, a line of 9 fragrances based on poisonous flowers. If the packaging looks vaguely familiar, that's becaue Joseph Quartana was behind the Six Scents line.

                                On writers and fragrances, has anybody tried Imaginary Authors? Twisted Lily and Roullier White carry it but I'm not in a position to visit either in the near future and was wondering whether to blind buy 'A City on Fire', seems pretty neat
