About this deal

Even though it came out in the 90's I still feel it is one of the best Fall/Winter fragrances and a must in any collection. Silage isn't a bomb but I'm always aware it's there giving me a very clean, comforting vibe for hours and hours. Not to mention whenever I wear this I get complimented far more then I do with any other perfume I've ever worn. It's not surprising in any way, doesn't hold my attention, and on me, it simply faded without evolving.

The sort of fragrance one applies on a snowy day in the dead of winter whilst wearing a fuzzy pullover and enjoying a cup of cocoa. At first whiff i get a citrus sharp smell, probably the bergamot, Then after that i get different layers, definitely something leathery but it smells more like plastic to me, like those Barbie dolls.There is something in this that smells like my local bowling alley, either the type of wood that is used to make the lanes or the sealant or wax that is used on the lanes. Leave this for a good 30 minutes to allow it to dry down and fully develop before you even think about smelling your wrist/neck/elbow crease. I discovered that it’s the suede note that I do not like, there is something sour about it to my nose.

I loved it the moment I first smell it on her - it was quite stronger back then but the smell is still the same. I'm not at all saying this is not a more mature scent because my cousin of the same age said it smelled like old ladies to her.In my younger years, I loved fruitchoulis and fruity florals, and had a strong aversion to everything musky or woodsy. Or like the quiet and warmth on a silent winter day or night in the woods, but you're safely inside. Cashmere Mist is the epitome of minimalism and elegance, introduced by Donna Karan's design genious, which took New York and the rest of the big urban areas in the country by storm at that time of the 20th century. and then there's the sweet Proustian thing that happens with the aroma of suntan lotion or sunscreen on a beach scarf.

then, a bit of "that moment you walk into Bloomingdales" (floral, fresh, a little harsh, genus and species hard to distinguish).

How is it American when it's as stoic and as reserved, quiet and refined as a British governess from the Edwardian era. It's a therapeutic milky white bath soap with citrus and florals drying into a light powder, vanilla woodsy base.
