I went into Glasgow yesterday and had a touch and sniff session at the L'Occitane shop. It is my birthday next week and Mrs Audiolab was going to buy me the complete set, i.e. soap, balm and a/s. Cunningly I had not applied a/s yesterday in anticipation of the visit, so I used some while I was there and wandered around the city for an hour or two looking at other stuff, planning to buy it on the way back to the car.
Having left it for a couple of hours I found the biggest disappointment was the scent did not seem to last long on me, when I could smell it I felt it was too deep and woody. I really wanted to like this range and was sure that I would from the descriptions I have read, alas in the end I did not make the purchase.
Don't get me wrong I did not find the scent repulsive, I just wondered if it is one of those scents that grow on you?
