So you think this Chinatown perfume would be god for a guy?

[KatiePuckrikSmells]

@KingPharroh I know guys who wear it. You have to love sweetness and fruit in a fragrance to be able to love wearing it. It does have enough woodiness in it to ground it so it's not a big puffball fragrance.

Hey Katie's nose, i need your help! I've been so turned on by the whole sweet stuff + touch of sexy spice lately. Flowerbomb is my favorite, it's feminine and sweet enough for me but it's not boring, it has that sexy quirk provided by the patchouli. I was wondering if you can point me in the direction of scents like this, maybe a step up from flowerbomb. Is chinatown a good option as well? I was kind of thinking Angel, but have read too many horror story reviews and have yet to sniff it!

[KatiePuckrikSmells]

@originalparafan Chinatown could work, but it's much bigger on the quirk-factor than Flowerbomb. If you want to stay in Flowerbomb's sweet/soft/feminine range with a slice o' quirk on the side, I heartily recommend Organza Indécence by Givenchy. It is unutterably gorgeous. Angel is great, but the smell is HUGE. You might try Angel Innocent for a slightly toned-down version that still smells great.

This decidedly-not-a-young'n loves your videos, Katie. Since the perfume industry had the rug pulled out from under it with the $&!# recent regulations and the whole beautiful art of perfumery is taking a sad nosedive, I rely on your reviews more than ever. Plus, you're just so damn smart and funny. I hope you'll keep it up. Thank you!

[KatiePuckrikSmells]

@Figure5InGold I really appreciate your plaudits - gives me the will to keep on sniffin'...

[FM897]

I'm really interested in trying this. Must.  Be. Patient. Would you review Bond No. 9 Scent of Peace? Thanks.

LOL when they find their sugar daddy! No kidding! ;)

[leeyah87]

Just sampled this today and there is *something* about it that reminds me of Serge Lutens Un Bois Vanille. The woodiness, perhaps?

Love your videos and sense of humor, Katie! Would you please do a review of at least one of the following Bond fragrances: West Side, Nuits de Noho, Fashion Avenue? Thank you!
