Co...Colleen: Bravo to you for trying something new. Corina sounds like a summer scent- why not try it again in warmer weather and see how it performs then? I have developed a taste for older perfume styles but it is still especially true that some vintage perfumes require more than a few tries before revealing their full charm. So don't give up on Corina yet- you may find yourself growing to like, or even love, it.Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05294910261057194511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3011840457872911681.post-82605457089367514412011-05-01T11:59:33.150-07:002011-05-01T11:59:33.150-07:00ifinder- Thanks for commenting!

As a lover of Mitsouko, I can tell that the upper notes have turned to a certain degree - so I'm very interested in this air "cure" that you speak of. What exactly is entailed in this process. I'd love to know so that I may hopefully regain some of the former glory of this rare gem.<br /><br />Many thanks and best regards,<br /><br />JohnSteamy Vickshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11894350965240688784noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3011840457872911681.post-23704184796572682082011-04-26T15:25:41.091-07:002011-04-26T15:25:41.091-07:00I just don't understand why Tova would even wa...I just don't understand why Tova would even want to change this wonderful scent.

Making an offer is usually win-win, but you made me so curious about a cologne made for the Seattle's World's Fair (I live in Seattle myself). Corina starts off very powdery and has a lemon soap quality to it. In the middle it begins to smell like vintage 4711 with the oakmoss. Then it drys down to a very nice sandalwood musky thing. Not my fav cologne as I dislike powder but not bad overall.Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13493487266646823709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3011840457872911681.post-88754216599564469832011-04-20T08:12:43.638-07:002011-04-20T08:12:43.638-07:00I love the packaging.

I think appreciation of SAFARI will likely grow over time and I think it will be one of those scents that ends up being prized by collectors- both because of the bottle and because of the scent, which is quintessential of the 1990s style and of a good quality.Ameliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05294910261057194511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3011840457872911681.post-26414513490326815202011-04-14T20:04:13.675-07:002011-04-14T20:04:13.675-07:00I remember trying and liking it ... 12 (?) years a...I remember trying and liking it ... 12 (?) years ago but I remember neither the scent nor the reason I'd never bought the bottle.<br />Do you like it enough to wear now?
