I scored a large bottle of the original and discontinued Calvin (dark blue bottle) from back in the 80s. It is a very complicated fragrance -starts off smelling like blueberries and then you get waves/layers of other very different scents -very unique -best ever. No worries about it weakening -it has the longest sillage ever -could use backing down a notch. If you get it on clothing it literally survives washing and drying. If I use more than the slightest bit it is overwhelming, so have to be careful. I have no reason to wear it out in the world, so I use it for aromatherapy. :p

I used to be a fan of English Leather back in the day but now I just use a little Brut.

I tried some Tom Ford in an airport and thought it was fantastic ,When I went to pay I found it was £178 , I thought it said £17.80 I nearly passed out , needless to say I did not buy it ya some are ridiculous expensive I find if you look at ingredients in that tom ford you may find a cheap brand with similar

Howard Johnson is moving his bowels... ... Lock up your daughters, Avon crawling (WTF does that mean?) Street alligators, big Anglophile... Will navigate us... What on earth is that song about?
