Hmm, finally got my first order last Friday. I ordered unscented PI.
The thing is, the stuff smells when I put it on. I don\'t know if it\'s me (from what I read, some ppl are more aware of the smell), but it smells almost like cat piss (as opposed to BO).
Tried 3 things...:
1st day, 1 drop, spread behind both ears (as everyone\'s been saying) + rubbing extra left over on wrists. My cologne is Dolce&Gabbana (put on even a bit more than usual). Didn\'t take long for me to get \"whiffs\" of that \"cat piss\" smell throughout the whole day.
2nd day, I figured I\'d try mixing the stuff directly with the D&G - BIG mistake. Mixed fine, but that seems to make it worse...
Then today, I just used \"dabs\" of it (1 behind each ear) + cologne as usual...and it still bothered me...even over 6 hrs after putting it on, once the D&G smells had run it course, I would still get whiffs of it.
Now, I know (I HOPE!) not everybody can smell that...but the whole thing almost made me uncomfortable. It\'s hard to get close to someone when you can smell whiffs of cat piss on you!
I wondering if I shouldn\'t have ordered the scented version? Should I (can I?) switch?
Is the scented version (ylang/ylang) actually much different smell wise, or is it just plain PI + some scent that when it\'s gone, the original (bleah) scent stays?
Or should I go with something else? I liked the idea of the unscented version as I like the D&G (and ladies like it too)...
Any ideas?
