Uninhibited Cher 1987 Eau de Toilette

Sorceress's great review prompted me to hunt down a bottle and, sure enough, this belongs in the category of the fabulous orientals from the 80's. Instantly recognizable is the core citrus, Jasmine, Rose, Musk Sandalwood and Vanilla. Vetiver tempers the sweetness and I love the smoky tobacco note. This is Panthère's younger cousin, too poor for a string of pearls (Panthère's many florals, its civet and chypre notes). Yet, she haunts the second hand shops and comes out looking and smelling like a million bucks, a glittering cigarette holder in hand. To compare them, I put one on each wrist. Uninhibited evokes Cher's sexy, deep voice, while Cartier's Panthère, when it isn't growling, purrs. If you're an oriental fan, both are to-die-for must haves.
