    I think those are so pretty … I wish I felt like I had a better track record with solids, although I guess at that price I wouldn't be risking much trying the Yuzu.

    M, they really are pretty, and I am a big fan of solids…but I don't like ordering unsniffed either.

    I haven't used a solid fragrance since I was 7 years old. It was an old orange blossom-like fragrance for kids from Avon….

    Do solid scents last long?

    My experience with solids is admittedly limited — I have a few, but there aren't tons of them out there these days. Most of them seem to have decent lasting power!

    Those are entirely too pretty. “Green and sensual.” I may deserve something pretty.

    The packaging really does look very nice. I am hankering after Yuzu Blossom myself.

    And I'm *sure* you deserve something pretty.
