Have you ever thought...

...of your sample vials as little puzzle pieces scattered in front of you, and you have an edge piece, but it's just featureless blue and there are some two dozen pieces in front of you that *might* match it? I may have found two that pair nicely! Creaky Floorboards is a nice, bright, paradoxically cheery scent that is *wonderful* with the brooding understated aroma of Bois Doré. The best part is that while I only get a couple hours of projection, the perfumes hover near me for about six hours or so, which is miraculous longevity for my skin chemistry. I'm glad that I gave it a go!
