Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 What smells to you are classy (maybe you'd expect the president to be wearing something reminiscent of it)? [Happy Obama Presidential Election (HOPE) day!] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 Vetiver smells like classy Presidential elegance to me, as do Black Pepper and Lime. And I love whatever Grey Flannel has in it (not a natural, I know: I blame a male teacher I had a crush on in 11th grade, who used to wear it). Has anyone created a natural version of it?

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 > Vetiver smells like classy Presidential elegance to me, as do Black > Pepper and Lime. I totally agree. I had down: Most likely candidates for me: sandalwood, labdanum rose, jasmine bergamot, petitgrain sur fleur It should be sharply mild, distinctly memorable, and mysterious. Jasmine itself is endlessly mysterious. I was afraid to say vetiver because it also smells slightly raunchy to me, but I think in particular vetiver and sandalwood make for a classy thing.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 you're right-vetiver does have an edge of funk to it, but i think it's a kinda funky elegance! sandalwood definitely would add a more refined feel... it's 1:35 am here in london and obama just took pennsylvania! i'm not one to count my chickens before they're fried-but shall i set up my table and start on a fragrance for our new President? and would it be wrong to call it " BO " ? lol... in London Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 I agree Vetiver is one of my most fave EOs - but my hubby says it smells like a roach bomb...something he was familiar with in his childhood- but I mix it with a dark or really nice patchouli and sometimes a sandalwood key accord and it is an irresistable scent and my fave. I buy from the perfumers apprentice and the 3 that I mentioned are the ones that I only buy from her- they are just amazing and her prices are great too! Thanks, and blessing s to you all~ AngelHawk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
