Ah nice one - I've got Juniper Sling and really like it. Next time I head to Bicester I'll try it out.

You can even get a multi-buy discount there by the way, I'm pretty sure the 50ml bottles were £40, or two for £60.

Ah cool - I'm definitely gonna head to Bicester when I'm back then. Is it a year round promotion?

Juniper Sling is nice, though didn't cop as I though I smelled a bit like an alcoholic

how does it wear over the day?

Haha, don't think of it that way. It smells as you'd expect, botanicals wise (not hangover sweats), but it goes from fresh to surprisingly smokey and a bit sweet…Which isn't really what I was going for, but it was the best of the bunch at the time.

As far as I know that's just how they do it at the Bicester store!

Is Dior Homme Intense much different to Dior Homme?

Very. DHI is a chocolatey gourmand, good for winter/evenings, DH is a fresher iris type scent.
The consensus seems to be that the reformulated DHI isn't as good as the original though, so if you can find the original kicking around anywhere, I'd go for that.

Thanks man. I was about to order more of the OG and was going to try Intense, as well. Just making sure I wasn't basically buying two of the same.

Went in to Boots to check it but they didn't have it out.

First fragrance I've bought since I was about fifteen (Burberry Weekend I think that was, great days). Diptyque, I think I'm actually in love with it. Oh and the woman in Space NK congratulated me when I chose it over some other one, should have asked if she posts on here.
