The Blind Cure
"Musk for Men" by Jovan... has been in my collection since the end of the year, and I've been eyeing it suspiciously time and again! What should I think of it? Cheap price, so it was a blind buy back then! Then the first sprays and my face contorted briefly due to a strange opening! A weird, indefinable accord, lemon might be in play, everything else is a vague guess...
...and then?
Nothing more! Where is it? The musk from Jovan? Gone! I don't perceive anything for a long time, definitely around 3 hours, during which nothing flows into my nose! Mmmhhhh... what's going on? I must be blind to some fragrance note and not perceiving it! I would have guessed it was the musk, but it must be the lavender after all! At some point, however, Jovan makes a comeback, and a certain creaminess becomes noticeable! That must be the musk!
Well, it's not a showstopper, but for the money, it's fine, you can manage with it!

On my skin, the sillage and longevity are just fine.

You're right, there's a difference between cheap and inexpensive! I tested it today and I don't think it's that bad; there are worse options in the current mainstream. I might throw my principles out the window and order the denim musk blind-it's only 4.60 on Amazon...

I didn't say cheap, I said affordable.... ;-) 10 cents for a Helene Fischer CD? I'm buying that right away! :-D

Jovan's **Sex Appeal for Men** is not only very cheap but also really good! Buying fragrances just because they're cheap isn't a good idea in my opinion! I wouldn't buy a Helene Fischer CD either, even if it only cost 10 cents :-)

"**Shifty-eyed**"? I only smell something pleasantly soft in the women's fragrance (same year) that I really like about my mother-in-law. In that sense... "Two blind men sitting on a park bench..."
