I received a sample of this purple juice imagining it might smell a bit like flowers and incense, gothy with a hint of Catholic Church perhaps. I don't smell a single drop of any of it. Sadly, this is...

I haven't had any luck with SL's fragrances (though I do appreciate their efforts, particularly regarding layered/complex fragrances and longevity). Fumerie Turque has that bit of body odor funk that ...
