Qualified only because of the high cost. No, I don't think luxury. partly because I think opulent when I think luxury, and this is really cuddly and warm. I would presume the quality of the ingredients are definitely excellent. But, yes, this one would have been a huge winner of the line as far as a breakout, widespread appeal, but now it is holed up in Colette, which I agree with carmencanada, is a horrible place to shop.

Well, I definitely thing either men or women could wear it. I'd love to smell it on a guy. Where is that husband. I think the price is a killer on it. Most people could justify spending the normal Le Labo price tag for it, I think it's absolutely one of the best of their line, but the city exclusive price is pretty hard to take. I do wonder how they manage the maturation problem. I've never noted their scents changing, once they've been bottled. Maybe it's just the perfume is done and maturated, then they mix in the perfumer's alcohol or something? Never seen them do it. Masculing? Well, I definitely thing either men or women could wear it.

I should smell it. It's embarrassing how often this happens to me. I didn't htink it was all that the first time through, but, with all things, when you smell it, what else you've been smelling, etc., impacts that. Now I need to try again! I think the Aldehyde is just stunning, and I'm so happy to wear it. It's what Gina commented on the other day, it's like being able to take a step back from your own sadness and grief and not feel it, but to luxuriate in what it is to feel that kind of powerful emotion. I find it just bubbling over with life, but life that has not always been happy, but well lived. I could have sworn I had some Tuberose around here, but I can’t lay my hands on it. I should smell it.
