    Oh, well, another wave of spinoffs–but I guess Hermes isn't going to do the third in its garden series as we'd hoped this spring. Or are they? If anyone would know, you would.

    All the Diors and Givenchies remind me of ” Third Bride of Frankenstein's Uncle meets Great-nephew of Dracula's Cousin, the Sequel, Part Five.”

    L, I haven't heard a word about a Hermes travel scent, but Hermes doesn't tell me much, LOL! I am disappointed, they need a third in the series. There is rumored to be a new Hermessence though, perhaps in the fall.

    And there is something about the combination of “Addict” and “Summer Peonies” that I find extremely amusing — it is my favorite flanker name for the year, I think.

    The people at Dior didn't really think that one through, did they?

    I sniffed the Givenchy 2006s, and they were…nice. If I absolutely was forced to buy one, it would have been the Organza with orange blossom.

    I sniffed them and hardly remember them, sorry to say — but then none of the 3 originals are great favorites of mine. I did like last year's bottles much better though!
