Nothing comes to mind I admit, although I'm wearing Palais Jamais by Etro today and it certainly works as unsweetened perfume. Not very floral though...<br />POssibly some of the Ellenas?

That reduces a lot the range of fragrances I can buy, I know :) but that's not all, unfortunately: no amber and no sweet perfumes for me, thanks. I can appreciate them but not wear them.<br />My ideal perfume would be a cold, unsweetened floral (without the rose). I'm still looking for it.robhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07557897931454205774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8638187488800760223.post-28439220595427419082012-04-13T12:36:00.257+02:002012-04-13T12:36:00.257+02:00Hi Rob, really, you dislike tea?
