spritz them on my cardigan and skin today at work place, i wonder how other ppl see this stuff though, cause i smelled it after once in a while, really crazy undertones like deep mysterious ink smell, I will gladly shake hands with anyone who appreciate this kind of obscure scent. I purchased encre noire when my DHI left 10 percent in the bottle, I guess gotta make another purchase next month for something more vibrant, as i can't see myself wearing this everyday unlike my DHI , which had served me last 6 month.
