I gave Janet the Amaranthine and Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune -- which didn't smell like cat pee on her at all.
I had a bug infestation problem with my condo, and I am in the midst of cleaning up after the extermination. This is all very stressful.

Yet Again With the Japan
I just arrive in Nagoya tonight. I flew to Osaka through San Francisco, didn't think I'd get on. I have to back home in less than a week. I had wanted last week off, as it was Golden Week. Monday is still a holiday, but that's it. And Naoki has to go drinking with some people Friday, so maybe I will go home on Friday. Five fun-filled days!
Gisela on Friday gave me back the Amaranthine and the Guerlain. Amaranthine gave her a headache, and the Guerlain she couldn't smell.

Gave Away....
Yesterday I gave away my bottles of...
Amaranthine and Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune to Gisela at work. She liked them both. She was confused why I was giving them away. I told her that I really liked Amaranthine, but that it just didn't work on me. The Guerlain, well, it smells like urine on me. She didn't get that on her. She may pay me for them.
Mugler Cologne to Brian at work. It was actually the Open Sky untitled one that I got. Anyway. I hate it. Brian said he really liked it.
My 50 ml girly bottle of Mandragore and my 15 ml mini of Myrrhe Ardente to Janet. She likes them, but it is a shame now that it is finally getting warm, because these work better in the cold. I still have bottles of these in my collection, though.
I'm kind of sad to see Amaranthine go, but, really, I would never wear it. If Gisela didn't like it, I would have given it to Janet to see if she would have liked it.
I may be going to Japan on Saturday. I have a week off.

Yet Newer Things
I just got:
Kenzo Jungle pour Homme, just because I like Jungle L'Éléphant. I have had the pour Homme in my Amazon.com shopping bag for the past two years, waiting for the price to drop and I sort of never pulled the trigger.... well anyway I found it elsewhere at a lower price so I got it. What's it like? I dunno.... I think it is for cooler weather than now.
Clinique Aromatics Elixir, just because. Do I like it? I dunno. I think once again it might work better in cooler weather. We're in the end days of the heat, I think. I've been meaning to get either a bottle of this or of Aramis 900 at some point. Anyway, the bottle is kind of small. I remember being in some department store or Sephora and trying it and Tamio saying, Why would anyone want to smell like that? and thinking, I need this.
Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Pamplelune mainly because I wanted something more substantial than Osmanthe Yunnan in the heat and I like grapefruit and I heard it was good. Yeah yeah I know I know. I've had a poor record with Guerlain. And then there are the stories that it smells of cat pee. Well, maybe more human pee. Not really, but in the back of my mind are the stories that Jackhammer's back room is furnished with a big bathtub for water sports, so now that whole goddamned image is stuck in my head. I'll give it another try tomorrow. The perfume, not water sports.
Well, all three came in the mail yesterday and I briefly tried them, so they are all clashing. I was wearing L'Artisan's Al Oudh today to boot. I have one more on order, and it hasn't come yet. Again, now is not the time of year to maybe be wearing it so I will hold off judgment when it arrives. Annick Goutal Mon Parfum Chéri, par Camille. It is on its way by pony express or something. EDIT: This was finally delivered today (15 August 1012). Very nice!!
