I never cease to be amazed by the power of perfume to evoke so many emotions. I remember Cinnabar when it first came out, doing battle with Opium. I was wearing Anais Anais back then, but one sister wore Opium, and so I could borrow hers if I wanted, but I never did, since I thought it wasn't me, and it truly was not, though I know I could rock it now that I am much older. The one I can't wear anymore is Fleurissimo. I love it dearly, and I consider it to be Creed's best fragrance by a mile, but I was wearing it at a very difficult time in my life, when several different disasters converged to form a hellstorm the likes of which I hope to never see again. One of those was falling hopelessly and unrequitedly in love with someone to whom I was little more than wallpaper, though we worked in close proximity. This torture endured for over a year while the rest of my life continued to fall apart. It took me years to recover from all of it, and the aroma of the perfume that once delighted me only served to remind me of how many, many ways I had failed. Maybe someday Fleurissimo and I can make peace, but it has not happened quite yet. Wow Patty ,what an awesome story, and everyone else’s memories too.

I'd give it a try! I haven’t bought a bottle in a couple of years (I had bought a good stock of it), but I believe it does still smell very close to the original and is still satisfying.
