You're right, it's the cap I think is so wrong. Caps are hard -- at any reasonable price point they're usually plastic, and they're not going to be stunning, but I'm thinking the brown was a mistake. Have you seen the Daisy in person? It's silly, I admit, but I like its bouquet form, if not the actual bouquet of the fragrance... Robin at Now Smell This has pointed out to me, though, that she believes the belt accessory is only on the testers in the store and not on the bottles for purchase. :( The bottom of the bottle I like a lot.

Bottle just peed on me. Maybe the crystals get stuck in the nozzle?:-? Went back and tried Omnia again today, picking up the ol’ mascara. Bottle just peed on me.

I think I might have to hook myself up with some Omnia, 25 bucks, why not? I'll really enjoy all those scented crystals, I'm sure.

And I don't think the bottle is THAT ugly (I like poisonous green too!), although I agree the cap is horrible... Actually, if I would spontaneously call a bottle "a truckload of ugly" it would be the Daisy one... :d It's sort of potentially cute, cute-by-association since daisies are cute, but the design is just too clumsy and cheap...
