I totally get pixie at the beginning of the EDC and EDT, but my vintage extrait is vixen all the way -- that moment of pixie-ish green at the beginning turns into a rush of green that's a little closer to slap than a fairy wing.<br /><br />But then, the vixen is more relaxed, too. A vixen at ease on the chaise lounge... And how I love her.Alyssahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08651065872724626149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7039707457010939097.post-61874920559765348572009-04-28T04:59:00.000-05:002009-04-28T04:59:00.000-05:00"Inscrutable" is a good word for VdN.
