I need to get on that.<br /><br />Also ,you won my March drawing, so send me your address! :)DWRhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06391438800426810251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-41420572609160874572011-04-08T18:35:42.964-07:002011-04-08T18:35:42.964-07:00I love lilacs.

This is one of a few things that I miss from my "previous life": it's almost impossible to come accross lilacs where I live now, I saw them two times in flower shops with a price tag... around $40 for a single (and not too spectacular) small branch. So I enjoyed your pictures. Thank you.<br /><br />As to the perfumes... I keep trying to find one I would like to wear but none of those where I can smell this note as a standing out one plays well on my skin.<br />Out of those I tried so far (Pacifica's, Ineke's, FM's and not mentioned here Jo Malone's and Ives Rocher's) Ineke's After My Own Heart was the best... but unfortunately only in 4 to 5 hours after the application. If only I could skip those initial hours. But I still plan to sample more (your choices are noted) and will try to find "my lilac".<br />In the list I compiled over time in addition to already mentioned there are: Soivohle Lilacs & Heliotrope, I Profumi di Firenze Lilla, DSH White Lilac and Patou Vacances.Undinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292100499371921334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-80278285189434921422011-04-07T21:58:29.925-07:002011-04-07T21:58:29.925-07:00En Passant, hands down, such ethereal beauty.

That said I certainly like and wear a few soliflores. My favorite floral note, if I only get one, is definitely tuberose. I also love the smell of roses (as in Tea Rose), but never wear rose soliflores. <br /><br />I haven't tried any of these lilacs except En Passant, which is lovely!Elisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10270808520581466353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-8279616796932384002011-04-07T08:11:13.854-07:002011-04-07T08:11:13.854-07:00I JUST ordered the Ineke and the Highland - will s...I JUST ordered the Ineke and the Highland - will sniff soon and report back.
