I turn around, expecting to see horses.... ....and find it's nothing more than the normal! sound of men and women in hard-soled shoes (and lots of heels) crossing a paved street! Stick a straw in my teeth and call me Bessie! My world has been turned completely inside-out! How humiliatin' Mistress S was kind enough not to laugh directly in my cornpone face, bless her heart.. xo your >-) from Green Acres I got samps of all 3 (for me and Mistress Shelley) from my baby girl at Bloomingdale’s – I love Silver best but can def see Gold as a sweater scent!

Tuberose-wise I also like La chasse aux papillons, but the longevity… well, there is none. However, my mum loves it and it’s currently the only scent she uses. On the other side of the spectrum is Fracas, but that one can be too much too often. So, I guess the Carnal Flower manages to strike the perfect balance. Well, here where I live we do not have stores like Saks (and no, it’s not the Moon). And the SAs in the stores that carry LaPrairie scents are anything but friendly or generous. Also, there are no niche stores or boutiques here. Which can be both a pro and a con. Yes, Carnal Flower is wonderful.

Or maybe I need to moisturize more! I definitely notice that fragrance doesn't like to stick around on me when its cold out and my skin is dry. Maybe I’m anosmic to something in Woman :-?

Reconsidering ... I certainly like it more than any of the other fragrances you (or I) name, with the exception of the original Cristalle EDT. However, Cristalle EDT doesn't last very well on me, so Tiare would probably be a better choice. There are already comments from people on here who, like me, expected something more tropical -- and I don't think it would be an outrageous assumption if you've smelled her other florals.

People complain that Woman eats them... I'll be curious as to your reaction. I would definitely not describe it as tropical. Hahaha, your skin ate Woman?
