I like having an everyday scent that just smells like expensive soap, which is what I think led 8track {sniff} to recommend Gendarme, with which I and others around me have been happy. Anyone care to dictate how an anonymous stranger smells by naming a new favorite as a replacement? Suggestions by notoriously bangable Fbers will be given more credibility.
Well, with the explicit subject line shout out and the implicit reference in the post ("notoriously bangable FBers"), I want to help you out but I wear no colognes or perfumes or body oils or what have you. But let me tell you this. You want to smell like PLF? I'll tell you what that scent is, my brother. It is the smell of freedom on a sunny, late September afternoon. But be careful what you wish for. This scent of freedom comes with an awesome responsibility.

Um, the Sephora website classifies this as a women's fragrence. I'm not sure whether that says more about me or European men. In either event, you owe Bogart an apology.

Thanks for the other suggestions and the compliment, I guess. Maybe I can rub up against PLF to get that twofer "just showered with a European man" smell.

The Incredibles

is a funny movie, but it doesn't have the same fresh feeeling of its predecessors. There are some high points, but overall I wouldn't put it in the same league as Finding Nemo or Monsters, Inc.

The story line is relatable, superhero goes through midlife crisis 17 years after settling down to do the family thing. And Mr. Incredible, voiced by Craig T. Nelson, is a character that's easy to identify with. The bad guy, voiced by Jason Lee, is funny, managing to be evil without going over the top. Holly Hunter is sexier than she's ever been as Elastigirl.

I didn't really find anything in particular to complain about. But the movie just didn't have that tight blend of kid humor, adult humor, and gee-whiz that Pixar is capable of.

The Body Shop has (or had, they seem to have a fair amount of turnover, and I go through scents very slowly) a scent called Of a Man that is kind of citrus and warm, without being too much.

Somewhat related, I highly recommend The Body Shop's unscented after shave gel.

I think you should stick with the Hanae Mori--it can turn on even a prude fuck like I.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.

You might want to think of getting a couple of different types to be more seasonal. Musky, spicy scents work better in the winter, while grassy, herby scents work better in the summer. Gucci Envy, or you can call it penis envy like everyone else. And Issy Miyaki - lighter, neutral, nice.

Or, rub up against PLF, whatever makes you happy.

Haven't seen it yet, and plan to, but the print ads are very cute. I particulartly like the one I saw on the side of a bus the other day:

No Gut, No Glory!

And worth every penny. At least you know the price isn't because of an expensive ad campaign or a designer bottle.

And look who's talking about spendiness, Miss "My New Weekend Place is a Historic Building!"

I thought less humor because it was deliberately darker.
