Dalai Lama

i acquired a full bottle out of curiosity. dalai lama sounded safe and easy to wear. hmmm? my bottle is lot J288C5 (if i am reading it correctly.) the listed notes are simple and direct, with lemon catching my nose first and foremost. but this is more a cool/cold weather lemon lacking a sunny face and having, instead, lemon tea, brewed in winter to bring comfort and to dispel sniffles but with a huge a sexy undertone, sexy as in reeking of "wanna have sex." the delicious juxtaposition: i'm catching a cold, but i am soooooooooooooooooooooo horny. the website says, "frais, vert." ok. but that seems to ignore the chypre oakmoss base. the perfumeur considers it a male scent which seems to fit since it does not have any sweet floral side despite being rich and a bit old school. 02/07/21 i spent the weekend out of town wearing this. maybe not so sexy, but wonderful weekend companion. could be close to my holy grail of wearably pleasant. maybe so old school that it would not be out of place at a bar zinc, whiskey and cigarette at hand. ah, yes corner of rue vieille du temple and croix bretonniere, yes, yes, le central. what? gone (in 2010 no less) a boutique now. alas! ((thomas sabo!!!! for fux sake!)) paris in the early 80's. pre-aids. sex. romance. the smell of paris and of men wearing strong fragrance. and un mec in the black leather jacket walks over and asks if you want to go for a ride with him. you ask, "what kind of car?" bmw, of course.
