    Lola seems to be winning a lot of awards, not sure why though…

      It’s a wearable fragrance in an enormously appealing bottle.

          I thought it would be incredibly tacky—but in person it’s endearingly cute….I think when I was 16 I would have loved to have a bottle on my dresser…..that it would have REALLY annoyed my mother would have been the icing on the cake ;-)

      … and what about Gucci By Gucci pour Homme? It was awarded somewhere else, right? Let aside the doube Gucci name, bit tame. Let aside the picture of poor James Franco that looks like he’s having a stroke. Let aside that Gucci is Gucci, and just the name sounds cool… and you will be left with a quite mediocre scent, wanna-be chypre, loads of violet and a chunky bottle. CEW works in mysterious ways! (btw, a newcomer here!)

    As many of you know, I do as little brick & mortar shopping as possible and even when I do venture out from under my rock; there’s not a lot of fragrance shopping choices around me (outlet type malls are scary, scary places when it comes to fragrance) …but this week I did venture out —and (believe it or not there is a point) I spent a little time sniffing around our Ulta store (which is pretty big as Ulta’s go, I think) and while there, I got brave and tried Marc Jacobs Lola ON SKIN! It was nice! Soft floral with a gentle woodsy/musky dry down that surprised me! at least for the 30 minutes it lasted. Would I buy it and wear it? nah, not likely…but I could see giving it as a gift to someone a bit younger who wanted to smell nice if not particularly “interesting”…..people often say that Lola’s sister, Daisy, is “pretty, innocuous, and wearable” and I’d have to say that so is Lola. A “safe bet” type fragrance.

      I’d agree…very wearable and pleasant.

        wearable and pleasant isn’t exactly what makes me yearn for something though—it’s hard for me to imagine a day where I pass up wearing “fabulous and entrancing” (ie. any of my 25 favorites, from Amouage or OJ to Guerlain and Chanel) to spend the day sniffing “wearable and pleasant”. But, for a perfume “mainstreamer” I can see this being a popular choice.

          …all the college girls (ages 18-20 or so) wear either Daisy or Lola when they come in to see me…but I agree, it is pleasant and it doesn’t bother me to sit near them even tho some bathe in it!

            Isn’t that right I don’t find it offensive so I welcome that.
