Grumpy Monday: Ex Vinis Fragrances and a Prize Draw

From the least to the most unappealing: Ribes Rubrum - S-Perfume 100% Love on steroids (the most interesting of the six scents- an appealing blend of drunken cranberries and fairly dirty musk) Anthemis Nobilis - an overpriced budget version of Yatagan Armeniaca Vulgaris - vanilla, in big doses probably indeed Vulgaris Piper Officinarum - a fruity-woody scent spoiled by the presence of overly fresh notes, i.e. bergamot and lime, the duo that turned many a good composition into generic "drugstore" concoctions Rubus Idaeus - Masculinus Genericus Ananas Sativa - clean-smelling room freshener covering bathroom aromas Moral of the story: gimmicks in perfume almost never work. If you would like to try the Ex Vinis fragrances for yourself, please say so in your comment. One randomly chosen commenter will receive a set of six samples.
