OK, this may be really weird, but I am so excited about this. One of the things I read and talk about online other than perfume is urbanism and skyscrapers. So I may have to find a way to get a bottle of this, no matter what it smells like. SO EXCITES
You will probably have to queue for hours and hours in front of the tower to get this one. Good Luck! The composition sounds good too. On a different note, why build the tallest tower in the worldy plagued by earthquakes and in a crowded place like Tokyo!? I’ve seen the tower and it is impressive. Hang on a minute… I am visiting my family in Tokyo in May. I won’t be queueing for it though.
I have a friend who lives in Tokyo who I could probably send money to cover the perfume plus some extra for his troubles. However… I realized this thing is going to cost over $700… sooooooooo… ugh.
It does not look like an easy thing to get your hands on — good luck!
I meant queue in front of the department store. Japanese women love things like this and they would queue for hours before the store’s open to get their hands on exclusive items like this.
