Todd Oldham (for women)

Moyra

This is among my top ten favorite perfumes ever, a miraculously lovely (and potent!)concoction of gourmand, spicy and woodsy scents, with exceptional sillage and tenacious lasting power.
I have gone through at least 10 big bottles of eau de parfum and 15 smaller bottles, and I know why, despite its fabulousness, it never made it "big": the atomizers never work. They will work for the first few sprays, and then never work again, no matter what you do to them.
I have had to laboriously remove the glued on top piece with acetone and pliers and decant them into other perfume containers in order to wear them, and its worth all the bother for the amazing perfume.
Todd Oldham is definitely not discreet "office perfume", indeed, it isn't discreet at all, but it has elicited a ton of compliments from everyone, from little children to older people. If there was one perfume that I have worn in my life that I would consider my "signature", Todd Oldham would be the one.
It makes me sad that it is so very hard to find now, even among online retailers, but I will keep buying any and all I find.

Todd Oldham starts out strong at first, with a big bang of spicy jasmine with its underpinnings of peach and rose. It does calm down to something smelling like Mitsouko's peach and rose accord, however the rose has a grassy-green quality. Feminine to start, but later gives off very masculine lines with its spicy woody patchouli notes.

Quirky, bold and gender-bending.

This perfume sure does have a lot in common with Angel and Prada. On my skin strangely enough, Todd's perfume is this crazy intense wood scent at first. It smells so 'foresty' if that is even a word. Then some of the gourmand notes kick in. A complex perfume but just so odd.

I think, like Angel in particular, this is a love it or hate it perfume. It's strong, lasts forever, and is one I have received few compliments on but have received several comments regarding the fact that 'someone smells like a Christmas tree in here!". I do like this perfume because it is interesting but this is not one to be worn in close quarters. It's too big of a fragrance for that.

Ahh, Todd Oldham, how I loved thee in the mid-90's! So sorry your lovely gourmand-ness was eclipsed by Angel. Funny how that that heavenly winged creature always manages to steal the show.

Thank goodness I've found a perfume that smells very similar to you and is still available in 2008, though at a more precious price: Prada.
