Received: Stilton Perfume Sample

Eau de Stilton I received the sample of the perfume made from, and in promotion of, Stilton Cheese.

The accompanying blurb says the perfume re-creates the earthy and fruity aroma of Blue Stilton cheese in a 'eminently wearable perfume'. It uses grape seed as a carrier oil and carries a 'symphony of natural base notes including Yarrow, Angelica seed, Clary Sage and Valerian'.

I have wafted the little bottle under numerous noses this week. Last night, Jeanne and Christina had a sniff, followed later in the pub by my Polish pal Lukasz and a chap we call Frenchman ('cause he is a man and, well, French). Jessica (who is German, not that it matters) was there too but declined a repeat sniff as she had seen it earlier in the week. Each was receptive to indulging me and my odd little bottle. And to a man (and women) the verdict on Eau de Stilton was the same.

It's shit.
