Vison Noir

I just got this in a mini lot off ebay. I have a teeny little micro mini and I want more! Hard to get now and expensive (discontinued) why, oh why is it when I find something so intriguing, addictive and luscious is it always discontinued? I keep smelling my arm, it is so soft, musky, woody,slight hint of crisp fresh flowers,(carnation maybe with something sweeter like a very very distant jasmine maybe) This one is totally unoffensive while still being deep and mysterious. It stays close to the skin and would be great for intimate moments. I just love smelling it on my skin and find it to be very sensual and personal. A real "euphoria" sent. It all just smells so wonderful! Why doesn't someone buy up all these great old formulas and reissue them being true to the original? Even give a new (hot and fashionable name) for those who do not know it, with the real name in tiny letters underneath for those that do? It's just such a waste to let this beauty fade.

Sweet jasmine, orange blossom, carnation, incense, and musk. Definitely an evening fragrance (or for those who desire daytime drama). Very potent, great sillage, excellent longevity. A rather unknown gem. If anyone knows the official notes, they would be greatly appreciated. Purported notes from USHOPTOO's website are as follows: "Top notes: galbanum, hyacinth, neroli, bergamot, cinnamon bark, cassia. Heart Notes: rose, mandarin, jasmine, orchid, tuberose, plum, ylang-ylang. In the arrangement plum is dominated by woody notes (sandalwood, patchouli, cedar, benzoin, and lightly seasoned with vanilla, musk, and amber gris."

I just have to add, this perfume smells so "real" and natural, there is not even a hint of synthetic when dabbed on to the skin. I just love that, I not only love that in a perfume but wonder why this kind of a natural wonderful scent can't be put in candles or room spray, then you could create an ambiance around you to match your personal scent and never use more perfume than needced for your person! I just love it...

Heavenly musk, earthy, sexy, I could smell this forever. It feels like a relaxing massage just to wear it, it is so grounded and real. The bottle is a gem too, gold leaf, and mink stopper. This is from another age of glamour and vintage. Sublime. As I opened my bottle and applied it, some of the gold leaf came off onto my wrist, so I am glittering, it fits the whole experience.
