Thanks Donna, I find perfume really interesting and your post gave me more interesting reading. You have explained the civet confusion I had- when I was reading up on it they said "cat" and there was a photo, and I remember thinking "what an odd looking cat"!
I hate sniffing round department stores though, although I enjoy finding a scent I like I get p'd off with an assistant coming up to me what seems like every few minutes If I need help with anything. If they just left me alone with the tester bottles I am sure I would have acquired loads of bottles of scent by now rather than just 5! I find this forum helpful and really enjoy reading the perfume threads.
I wonder whether Tova has ever said if she used real absolute Jasmine in her perfume? Or does she use the synthetic version like everyone else and use the line as a sales pitch? I suspect the latter.
I love watching some of the vids on you tube about different scents. I watched on on Tova handsome, this American dude in a baseball cap talking about it. I liked his vid so much I bought a bottle as a joke for my husband. He does not like the name " hansdome" but he loves the smell! It's that smoking jacket, rugged man's man kind of smell and he was amazed that he liked it so much. So was I after I returned the womens ones I had for a refund as they did not smell right on me.
