I agree - there is a lot of niche-snobbery around and I'm glad I ended up buying two fragrances that fit so well and in a way, feel like 'me'. I also can't understand Gucci's philosophy. I could be wrong, but I think YSL is getting rid of M7 as well, while Chanel don't distribute Egoiste in the UK anymore. It seems like anything that smells a bit more challenging or out of the ordinary is swept aside!Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06894218954285865917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666297985337182918.post-35746393114899073942010-10-20T18:57:42.335+01:002010-10-20T18:57:42.335+01:00There's nothing wrong with going for mainstrea...There's nothing wrong with going for mainstream scents if that's what you like to wear. There's too much pro-niche snobbery in the perfumery blogosphere, in my opinion.<br /><br />And as for your choices: unqualified thumbs up from me. I've got a bottle of L'Instant edp and I always enjoy wearing it. And as for Gucci Pour Homme, I think it's a total class act... and funnily enough (bearing in mind what you wrote about your wife) it's also one of Madame Persolaise's absolute favourites. I think it's absolutely shocking that Gucci are phasing it out. I have it on very good authority that the scent is no longer considered to fit in with the Gucci image, which is why they want to do away with it. Utter lunacy.<br /><br />Enjoy your two new bottles!Persolaisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192014353722036319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7666297985337182918.post-610260698007370102010-10-20T16:47:08.813+01:002010-10-20T16:47:08.813+01:00Michael, good for you!

Congrats on the L'Instant and Pour Homme! I can imagine they suit you perfectly.Katy Josephinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00504394399778675539noreply@blogger.com
