Strange

One of the few Bond fragrances that really made me consult the cards.
Sharp, extremely aldehydic, Heliotrope wherever you smell, a bitter rose that is almost rotting.
A bit of vanilla - perhaps just to cover everything up? Honeysuckle, sweet but so artificial that it couldn't be more beautiful. And yes, violets - not modest and pure here, but just present. Pale, inconspicuous, and scentless.
Somehow, Broadway Nite is supposed to smell green. But it is so sharp that it really hurts the nose.
Not a peppery sharpness, but simply biting, as if you briefly held your nose to a bloated bottle of chemicals and quickly turned your head away in disgust. Yet, you CAN wear it - for sure!
But at most 2 sprays. Anything more would really be too much!

I find it beautifully detailed. I felt the chemical note the same way and thought the name, the price, and the scent must be good-there's no way it can't be! I always felt like I was bothering others and it made me feel a bit nauseous, almost giving me a headache.

Okay... I guess I don't need to test that one either. Pokal... and Freebird... now I'm curious about your counter-comment :)

Menno, as much as I appreciate your comments, I really need to write a counter-comment... I just love "Broadway Nite" so much... I'm giving it a thumbs down, but not really ;-))... I’m awarding it a "great-bad-review trophy"!

Sounds like a particularly delicious Bond for sensitive noses, trophy.

The weasel is dreaming of Broadway again! I'm too scared and going for the noodle soup.
