For Lords only? Never! For Ladies too!

I had the great luck to sniff a vintage and at first I didn't even know that Ho Hang was launched as a men's fragrance. My snakes stood straight up from my head, the fangs were dripping! What a chypre! Elegant, cool, woody, all the conifers from Cyprus are throwing cones. However, we have the great reference work: parfumo. A men's fragrance? How is that possible?
Nothing here screams for a hairy male chest or long sideburns from the early 1970s. This is a fine scent, fresh, slightly minty, androgynous.
Dandy or Marlene Dietrich in a tuxedo. Did you know she was bisexual? Well, a little bi never hurts.
They have omitted the moss, but it is definitely there! A light sweetness flits by like a bon vivant in the 1920s with a chainsaw on his head and gaiters over his shoes. Ah, I got it, it's gaiters Colombo from "Some Like It Hot!"
This scent is bi! But, if I were free and under 45 again, I would drag any man wearing it anywhere. A great gift for my husband and me. Christmas is also in 3 months.

Also muss ich auf Damen mit vom Kopfe abstehenden Schlangen achten, wenn ich den (wie gerade eben :)) trage...; aber oldschool finde ich den schon; der zapft nicht nur, sondern harzt auch etwas, oder?

Der Duft ist bi? Das klingt sexier als "unisex".
