Time will drip like dew, each moment like cold shivers of bright silver sliding off the leaves and quenching a quick thirst. <br /><br />The moment passes, and already your brow is dry and hot to the touch. <br /><br />I can't wait for try these scents.Stefushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05664194471684692785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922907157797061660.post-40981326569620490942013-06-12T08:31:59.013+02:002013-06-12T08:31:59.013+02:00Janice, now *I'm* curious to know what I think...Janice, now *I'm* curious to know what I think about Eau Mohéli...

I have just tried Diptyque's Eau Moheli, and I'm ambivalent about it, but I'm happy to see ylang getting more attention as a central note--even though you say it isn't really prominent in Ylang 49. I'm curious to hear what you think of Eau Moheli, but in the meantime I'll definitely seek out a sample of this one! -JaniceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4922907157797061660.post-26398790711539416782013-06-11T17:15:41.966+02:002013-06-11T17:15:41.966+02:00Hi Jarvis!

Sounds fascinating, and it's interesting to think about an ylang reinvented -- in the past, I've found ylang to dominate most of the compositions it appears in. Vetiver and iodic facets of oakmoss?
