It's really animalic to my nose. I love it though!<br /><br />You're right, Jen: Bottega Veneta does smell like one of their handbags. That was a clever move on their part. I don't adore BV, but I do like it and find it eminently wearable.Joanhttp://www.scentsate.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-36626192144344641222012-01-29T04:58:30.109-08:002012-01-29T04:58:30.109-08:00Mals, I think Jolie Madame is a naughty girl, not ...Mals, I think Jolie Madame is a naughty girl, not polite! Something about those innocent violets draped over that tough leather... not so polite at all!<br /><br />I don't get a lot of patch off of BV.

I need to give it a whirl at some point. <br /><br />I think vintage Jolie Madame is a more naughty leather! I love the violet note, but the leather seems a bit tough. It's one of my badass leathers. Funny how perceptions are so different! Vintage Jolie Madame is my absolute #1 leather. :)<br />xoxo<br />jenjensunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00041130248100842593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-31159338829710729272012-01-29T04:55:08.219-08:002012-01-29T04:55:08.219-08:00I know I replied to this days ago.

What are your thoughts? <br /><br />Cuir de Russie is just too birch tar-y for me, at least at this stage in my leather exploration. (That sounds delightfully kinky and totally not what I meant!)<br /><br />xoxo<br />jenjensunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00041130248100842593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-83624425318531369792012-01-29T01:43:48.322-08:002012-01-29T01:43:48.322-08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-9156614980358371552012-01-24T06:10:32.274-08:002012-01-24T06:10:32.274-08:00Can't wear the Big Leathers - I only like Poli...Can't wear the Big Leathers - I only like Polite ones: Jolie Madame (vintage parfum, please) and Cuir de Lancome. They're just floral enough along with the leather to make me happy.<br /><br />Bottega Veneta has a raspy-powdery baby-aspirin cast that just destroys me, plus allllll that patchouli.

I'm not sure how polite it is -- I mean it smells like rubber! -- but is wearable.<br /><br />Another polite leather is vintage Jolie Madame, all crisp with violet.Elisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10270808520581466353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-73968580391185535142012-01-20T16:07:30.054-08:002012-01-20T16:07:30.054-08:00I've heard so many good things about Cuir de L...I've heard so many good things about Cuir de Lancome and it's sold at such a great price that I almost decided to buy it unsniffed but then a friend offered to send me a sample - so I'm waiting for it to arrive soon and hope to like it enough to buy a bottle.<br /><br />My favorite leathers are Chanel's Cuir de Russie and Tom Ford's Tuscan Leather. And if the first one is definitely of a "polite" kind, Tom Ford's leather is much more aggressive.Undinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05292100499371921334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-48627242515873532692012-01-20T12:31:01.914-08:002012-01-20T12:31:01.914-08:00Do, Frida.

I am definitely into the naughty leathers. My favorite is Jolie Madame (vintage) and Bandit (because, well... duh). I have to tread carefully with leathers as I do not care for too much birch tar (it makes my stomach go all wooblie) and some leathers sneak in a tobacco that hates me. <br /><br />Something tells me there's a Grès Cabochard vintage mini up in ye olde cabinet. I don't think I've tried it. Tomorrow!!!<br /><br />Can't wait to hear about Knize Ten. I meant to order a sample and forgot. It's on The List. ;)<br /><br />xoxojensunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00041130248100842593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-47457031800055916302012-01-20T11:42:35.274-08:002012-01-20T11:42:35.274-08:00I must try that Lancome!I must try that Lancome!Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06394558427981331885noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2543727401374792804.post-22335980704077002852012-01-20T09:05:24.329-08:002012-01-20T09:05:24.329-08:00Gotta say it...few things get me going quite so we...Gotta say it...few things get me going quite so well as ...leather. My favorites tend toward the rather less than polite, but if I have to be polite, the ones that tick those boxes would be ...Chanel Cuir de Russie, Serge Lutens Daim Blond and yes, Bottega Veneta, which is indeed lovely. I just wish it came with a Bottega Veneta handbag. ;-)<br /><br />Ah, but if we're talking the Big, Bold, Beautifully Bad...my number one badass leather would be Piguet's Bandit. Closely followed by...Caron's Tabac Blond, vintage Grès Cabochard parfum (keep your eyes peeled if you find any while antiquing! Look for the grey velvet ribbon around the neck) and another Lutens...Cuir Mauresque. And the undiscovered marvel for all diehard leather fangals that is Ayala Moriel's Fetish. Oh. one more most unusual leather - at least, it goes that way on me - Amouage Memoir. <br /><br />Things are about to get really hairy now, though. Because I have a little Knize Ten coming my way...:-D<br /><br />A bad girl can never have too much...leather! ;)tarleisiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03891545310811763453noreply@blogger.com
