Comments on: Lubin ~ Gin Fizz http://scentzilla.com/2006/08/09/lubin-gin-fizz/ A monster perfume habit. On a rampage... with a wanton waft of sillage in its wake.

Your best bet is to stalk eBay and local resale/antique shops if you're looking for the old Lubins :( Gin Fizz is totally out of production, unfortunately.

This is why I avoid trying vintage perfumes...but perhaps we'll get lucky and it will be the next from Lubin. Oh, it sounds fabulous!

It <i>was</i> cooling though upon the opening. So the relaunched Rumeur is a dud, then? That's really disappointing to hear. Pity to hear that. No leather.. how peculiar. I will have to wait and see for myself, I guess. Anya, ach, who knows? Lubin seems to be on the right track with re-energizing the house, and Idole was a wonderful tease of what may be yet to come. Let's just hope they don't stop with Idole, and let's hope that if they do relaunch any of those old Lubins that they take their sweet little time about it and continue to do it right :) Vent Vert is actually one I've ONLY tried in vintage, hehe! I don't even know the modern version at all, though I've heard both love for it and disparagements. Most folks seem to appreciate both new and old, though admittedly most of them seem to prefer the old if they had to pick. It's actually the new I should be sniffing at some point, isn't it? Just so's I can see what the hubub is about. Chaya, well, in all honesty, I personally got no hissing or bubbling effect, the fizz I found was by virtue of composition only.

So, who do you/we write to encourage a relaunch? ;-) I'm thinking I have to send you some of my vintage Vent Vert EdP to get you riled up to write --we need campaigns, I tell you, campaigns to get those juicemongers to bring back the good stuff! (I think I just coined a new term - juicemongers - and I like it.) Honey, if the juice makes a lady go wow-ee like the one in your illustration, I want me some of that!

A propos of relaunch, wait 'til you smell Rumeur... double feh! No leather at all [and wasn't that the point?], lots of muguet [I recall only the merest wisp of it in the original], very jeune fille... For all the trouble, you could have Muguet des Bois or Muguet de Bonheur, for all the similarity to the original... Hissing-bubbling- cool to the touch…hmmmm-

The middle and drydown wear like a delighted and (more specifically) <i>warm</i> grin. It is a really fun frag, I agree... it'd be neat to let it live again. But you know, a REBORN live again, not a ZOMBIE live again. (Like some vintages.) Because that would not be fun. It’s cool on me, but only at very first.

But they MUST make sure that the bottle would have the same thing, whatever it is, that makes the juice to hiss, bubble and become very, very cold when you spray it. Sometimes I spray it not because I want to wear Gin Fizz but because I want to ezperience that...whatever it is. It is lots of fun. It would be fab if they re-released it.
