![]() Sweet nectar and fresh grasses seemed to waft from her golden tresses down to her silvery blue fin. She looked innocent enough, and as close as I was, her scent was making me a little delirious. She explained that she'd been living there, in the river, almost all her life, but now she was afraid she'd have to leave. Now, here's the part in the story where you say you don't believe me, take away my gin, and call me a cab-but if you've been in this city as long as I have, you've seen more improbable things than a lady with a tail, am I right? Well, turns out this lady had a tail and a tale, if you know what I mean. Streetsmart." I snapped out of my nostalgia and reminded myself that chumps who didn't pay attention by the river ended up in a snug pair of concrete shoes at the bottom of it. And…maybe I'd skipped lunch again, but I could swear I smelled something like…cucumbers. Streetsmart?" The voice I had heard on the phone called out to me. The pier was empty, and just as I was cursing myself for being a chump, I heard her. She sounded upset on the phone, which could have been an act, but she'd promised to double my usual fee, and that made me an attentive audience. The dame-and there's always a dame, see?-had asked me to meet her down by the pier. There was something fishy from the start. I am SO glad I got a bottle and I'm so glad I'm going to will call this month to get more!įrom the files of Dick Streetsmart, Private Eye. Youthful and feminine, with excellent throw and lasting power.Īnother evocative and nostalgic blend for me my skin is salty from swimming in the ocean earlier as I lie next to a cool lake in a shady forest, surrounded by flowers, greenery, and a meandering stream. The agave just barely sweetens the blend, like honeydew syrup, while the cucumber refreshes and soothes. Summary: This blend is aquatic above all, but with a salty tang, gentle sweetness, grassy green notes, soft musk and delicate wildflowers. The musk has emerged, and it's glorious and shining, glowing rather than glaring, reminding me of the musk in Yvaine. Later: Hmm, I thought this was supposed to be freshwater? It's certainly become quite salty on me (algae, maybe?), but in a lovely manner - it's brackish, with swirls of both sweet and salty water wafting off my skin. The agave is light, but does have a melony, softly honeyed feel. Seamlessly blended, it's difficult to pick out much beyond the cyclamen and cucumber. It reminds me a bit of Blue Moon 2004, but it's not as sweet it's, lighter and greener, more planty. The cyclamen is so lovely I've never smelled it more clearly, and the cucumber is that same delicious note from Squirting Cucumber.ĭry: Dries almost instantly, taking on just a bit of a soapy edge, but not unpleasantly. It's such a cool, perfectly watery, soothing, and refreshing scent. Wet: A bit cleaner, fresher and brighter with a hint of salt, otherwise the same. Soft florals (like wild flowers), cucumber, melony agave, new leaves, fresh grass. THIS is what I imagine Pisces should smell like.
