    I am not a fan of oud…..and even if I was….egad, I’m so over oud in everything! I’d almost like to see a resurgence of pink pepper!!! okay…let’s not go crazy….. also not a huge Kenzo fan…..but darn that’s a pretty blooo bottle!

    Niki St. Phalle ….bloo bottle ….headache inducing = NO!
    Amouage Interlude….bloo bottle….hot mess = NO!
    Madly Kenzo ….bloo bottle….egad, more oud, kill me now = probably another big NO!

    Please , some perfumer, somewhere….please put something wonderful in a blue bottle!

      Oh! I forgot …..Hermes Hiris…bloo bottle …beautiful, cold iris = great big yes! but the bottle is “frosted”…..it’s not fulfilling my bloo-bottle needs.

        Do you like AG’s Nuit Etoilee bottle? Admit I haven’t tried the scent.

          Sadly I felt they sort of “copped out “on that fragrance….. while I love so many of Guerlain’s high end fragrances, most of their more mainstream efforts don’t do anything for me (or my nostrils)

          How could I forget Guet Apens???? I’m so ashamed….I must go pet my bottle and beg its forgiveness.

          Yes, I just looked at my extensive collection and besides the frosty blue bottle of Hiris and the bluish-gray bottle of ADV Iris Nazarena, the only blue bottles I have are Guet Apens, Bulgari Blu and CdG Blue Encens.

            Oops…how could I forget my Andy Tauer Orange Star, Eau D’epices and Noontide Petals!

      Plus, “Oud Collection” is worrying. Flower Oud Collection? Kenzo Homme Oud Collection? Kenzo Amour Oud Collection? This could get ugly.

        LOL at the pink pepper comment…
        And Robin, yes, this could get ugly, this could be the oud-ification from hell.. Flower Oud Collection indeed!! (runs to the hills)

      What about the Andy Tauer blue bottles? I love those, but maybe they aren’t blue enough for you?

        true, true…..I have Incense Rose in a blue bottle — it’s a very pretty bloo too. Une Rose Chypree is in amber….which is okay….but I do love a bloo bottle.

      LOL – the curse of the blue bottle! What’s with that? I do love Niki, actually, but admittedly there is usually only one day a year when I feel like wearing it.

      Don’t some of the Tauers come in blue bottles now?

      This is where someone needs to post a picture of Grumpy Cat saying “OUD, NO!”

      Now that you mention it…a very stylized silhouette of a woman in a burka with her left foot back and looking over her right shoulder:)

      I can see what you are seeing! There is definitely a resemblance to a woman in a burka.

    So, for those of you that do not blanch at the mention of oud, has anyone tried Aramis Calligraphy Rose or Mugler’s Miroir des Majestes? My collection could actually do with an oud and I am becoming quite fond of those…

    And suspect I will not like the Kenzo, given my reaction to the original ‘Madleys’!
