Party Time!

By Tom I know I'm late to the party (PerfumePosse got here there in September), but these are new to LuckyScent, and, well, okay they aren't that new but the samples are sitting here and I'm lazy. The Party in Manhattan is what Colombina would call a Proper Perfume; something that isn't necessarily clearly one scent. It's also a proper perfume in as much as it's not anything shy or retiring. This isn't even a little black dress of a perfume: it's an Jean Louis gown with opera-length gloves. I'm just going to copy and paste the ingredients from LuckyScent: Bergamot, tangerine, clary sage, carnation, carrot, jasmine, May rose, ylang ylang, iris, vetiver, patchouli, oakmoss, and gray amber. I'm going to add that there's a big dose of skank in there in that old-school perfume way we don't see much of anymore. I'd like to see more. The Ten Party is the stalwart companion to the seductive PinM, with it's bergamot/lemon/lavender opening it could be redolent of about 10 other things, but it isn't. It's clean and handsome, with a woody/musky drydown that's gorgeous. I could easily see the vixen who wears Party in Manhattan filching some from her conquest to freshen up before breakfast is delivered, in bed of course. Party in Manhattan is $265 for 50ML, which is enough to last you until doomsday. Ten Party is $160 for 100ML, at LuckyScent.
