A bientot by Lentheric from a sample from a kind BNer. This is very nice and I see why folks like it. Fans of vintage feminine leathers would like this (and I am one of that group). I think this falls into a dry, classy leather category rather than skanky or sweaty. I think fans of Sirocco might like it as well - there is a nice dryness to this to me.

I also tried Molinard Oueillet from a sample from a kind BNer yesterday afternoon. I really love carnation and this was very nice and just got better as the evening went on. I think this is more powdery and less spicy than Coty Oueillet, but seriously both of these carnations are amazing.

SOTN: Fabergé - McGregor

Oh, @Ali AD…

Fun fact: Clothing company McGregor Corp.—owned by “junk bond king” Meshulam Riklis—bought Fabergé in early 1984. Fabergé issued McGregor cologne in 1988. (The 1983 date in the BN directory and elsewhere is erroneous.) Not to be confused with MacGregor cologne, sold c. 1950s–1970s.

Chanel - Antaeus, Aftershave and Eau de Toilette.

I think the sprayer head on the Eau de Toilette is playing up as it's not dispensing as it should. I've tried the upside down trick and it didn't work, I think I might try soaking it in some Isopropyl Alcohol. Anyone have any tips on clearing sprayer heads?

As long as some is coming out, I can work with it. I can't get broken nozzles to work again (so far, at least). You can trade the nozzle for another one, I think. I've done that with some bottles and it works.

But if I can get a drizzle, then I can just use it like a splash. No problem (no hay problema, pas de probleme, no probs).

I have a bottle of Witness with a wonky sprayer (who doesn't 🙄), and I've had success with shaking the bottle as I spray; that seems to improve the output. Good luck. 👍

Mine has started playing up on my 83 bottle, its not the sprayer nozzle as I tried the other one, its the mechanism in the bottle. I might have to wait until the other bottle is empty and do some sort of operation
