I've come to realize that I'm not very good at 'watching'. When I worked in the restaurant business, one of my cohorts said to me one day – "There are two types of chefs: doers and watchers." Meaning that some chefs got right into the cooking with the line cooks, while others like to stand there and watch. I, myself, could be classified as a doer because I'm like I'm a shark: If I don't keep moving, I'll wither away.
I've kind of had my fill of watching and waiting, so instead of continuing to wither away, I decided to take matters into my own hands and deal with what I could control. This week the weather took a turn for the better in Paris; it's always one day when the bleak weather suddenly changes and we revel in the hope that the cold snap of winter is behind us.
Everyone on the sidewalks of Paris is a little stunned to see the sunlight, almost walking around in a daze (including the number of people who refused to get out of my way when I was struggling to carry an iron pipe down the sidewalk and as a consequence, almost walked right into the butt of a massive metal pipe) but within a few hours, all the café terraces are packed – and not just with the usual fumeurs – but everyone craning their necks, trying to catch a little wedge of sunshine.

WILSON — Defending state champion White Oak plays on in the NCHSAA 3-A girls' soccer playoffs thanks to the foot of Rachel Krueger.
The junior defender booted a 25-yard free kick into the goal about midway through the first half to help the Vikings defeat Hunt 1-0 in the third round Tuesday night.
White Oak, the second seed from the Coastal Conference, will play at rival Jacksonville on Friday in the East Regional semifinals. Jacksonville beat D.H. Conley 5-0 on Tuesday.
Hunt was the top seed from the Big East Conference.
"We are excited about getting the win," White Oak coach Buddy Carroll said. "It's just another step closer. We played pretty well tonight. We struggled with possessing a little bit tonight, but we were able to grind it out and we got a little more physical than they were."
Krueger's goal was all the scoring the Vikings needed.
"It was a good shot," Carroll said. "They shifted their wall kind of late and it hit the top left corner."
Alex Jones made five saves for WOHS, which allowed five shots.
"Our girls kept their shape and really played well," Carroll said. "They didn't get beat off the dribble a lot."
Now the Vikings can focus on Jacksonville.
"It's just another White Oak-Jacksonville game," Carroll said. "It's going to be intense."
White Oak 1 0 — 1
Hunt 0 0 — 0
GOALS—W: Krueger. ASSISTS—None. IN GOAL—W: Jones (5 saves). H: Watson (3 saves). SHOTS ON GOAL—W 4, H 5. CORNER KICKS—W 4, H 5. RECORDS—W: 19-4, at Jacksonvilleon Friday at 6 p.m. in regional semifinals. H: 18-3, season complete.
Jacksonville 7, S. Central 4: Sophomore Chad Shepard pitched a complete game, and Jacksonville overcame seven errors to defeat South Central in the second round of the NCHSAA 3-A playoffs.
Jacksonville, the fourth seed from the Coastal Conference, will visit West Brunswick on Friday in the third round. West Brunswick beat Hunt 3-0 on Tuesday.
South Central was the No. 2 seed from the Coastal Conference. The Falcons beat Jacksonville twice in the regular season.
"I think our kids have the road warrior-type mentality now," said JHS coach David Fleischer, adding this is the deepest the Cardinals have advanced in the postseason. "We've had seven straight away games, but the momentum right now has just carried us."
Shepard allowed four hits and one earned run and struck out six to earn his second win. He managed to get out of several jams after JHS errors.
"That's a testament of how well Chad pitched," Fleischer said. "He really buckled down."
Shepard pitched a perfect seventh inning to clinch the win for the Cardinals.
Jacksonville got early momentum with eight hits in the first two innings.

Dixon 3, E. Carteret 0: Dixon's Quinn Ryan pitched a complete-game effort to lead Dixon past East Carteret in the second round of the NCHSAA 1-A playoffs.
Ryan allowed four just four hits as the Bulldogs, the third seed from the Coastal Plains Conference, advanced to the third round where they will visit North Duplin on Friday.
North Duplin beat West Columbus 8-7 on Tuesday.
East Carteret was the top seed from the CPC.
"One of the marks of our team is that we try to play our best baseball come playoffs," said Dixon assistant coach Nick Raynor, speaking for head coach Jack Brown, who declined comment. "Hopefully our best is in front of us and not behind us."
The Bulldogs certainly look like the best when they get good pitching like they did against the Mariners.
"Quinn really mixed it up and kept hitters off balanced," Raynor said. "He had them guessing all night."
Raynor added that the Bulldogs played without Miles Padgett, who was injured in an ATV wreck Sunday.
"We (were thinking) of Miles today," Raynor said.

The Italian Greyhound are able to run at top speed with a double suspension gallop; and can achieve a top speed of up to 25 miles per hour (40 km/h).5/27/2015 12:13:00 PM
The I.G should do perfectly fine with a dog-savvy cat as long as the dog was socialized with cats as a young pup and/or the pup is taught to respect cats. 4/30/2015 8:13:15 PM

Many Italian greyhounds are brindle. 1/31/2015 3:42:05 PM
Nope, sorry, NO purebred Italian Greyhound is brindle--love that color, but if they are brindle then there is a mix somewhere in the history, most likely this is a whippet or ig/whippet cross--we have had some "wiggies" in IG rescue in the past. 2/22/2015 5:03:36 PM

Go to the Italian Greyhound Club of America and read about health problems. Teeth are an issue with IG's. A reputable breeder in this club can help you. 11/9/2013 4:31:09 AM
Tarter can build up on an breed of dogs teeth. Italian Greyhounds in particular may have teeth problems more so than other breeds. Daily cleaning by the owner and routine teeth cleaning as recommended by the veterinarian are encouraged.6/9/2014 8:30:50 PM
The Italian Greyhound has a very small tight mouth full of teeth and their saliva production is not enough to cleanse their teeth well. It is rec. that IGs have their teeth brushed with dog tooth paste (never human paste), and a soft bristle brush with a small head-- daily. Even then they may still need to go to the vet every 1-2 years to have the teeth professionally cleaned.2/22/2015 5:05:28 PM
You don't explain what is wrong with your Italian Greyhound. Many things can constitute a "sick" dog. If you are not sure what is wrong with your Italian Greyhound, may I strongly suggest you take your IG to a good veterinarian for a thorough exam to determine what might be the problem. Best of luck to you and your IG!5/5/2013 10:52:01 AM
Nope Italian Greyhounds are great dogs.7/11/2013 12:13:19 AM
Italian Greyhound's shed very little. Next to nothing.2/8/2013 10:25:55 PM

Perhaps let them into the yard to play just the two of them. There must've been an incident where the IG felt scared and now carries that with him/her. I would try to integrate an activity with the both of them so they can interact. Perhaps holding the IG and introducing the poodle by allowing them to sniff could help to relieve some of the fear. Perhaps get them all in the car together could work if you take them out. if the poodle is not aggressive then perhaps over time the IG will adapt. if the poodle is acting all hyper and active the IG will mostly likely run away8/26/2012 5:41:41 PM

Hi, they should be fine. I have one and he's 13 now and he's always been home that long on a daily basis. Just leave a puppy pad down in case they can't hold it, they will use the pad. ;0)5/30/2012 8:18:52 PM
i feel that time frame is too long to leave the ig, not only for potty but for socializing. It would be better if you could have someone come in the middle of the day to walk him and play with him for 1/2 hour or so. Also, never leave your ig in the backyard unsupervised. I feed my full grown ig's 1/3 cup in the am and pm. Go on facebook to join Italian Greyhound Owners. There is a lot of information available. Good luck.10/1/2012 10:04:27 AM
a good brushing once every few weeks is enough and occasional baths. 5/11/2012 1:57:34 PM
The italian greyhound is it's own breed of dog. Not a mixed breed. Said to be bred down from Greyhounds hundreds of years ago.3/2/2012 7:25:06 PM
anywhere from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand dollars, depending on where you get it from. 5/21/2012 1:49:57 PM
An IG pup can be very expensive. Would you consider taking an adult dog? I purchased mine for a couple of hundred dollars but he was 2 mnths old. We have a 2yr poodle which we purchased for a couple of hundred dollars as she had finished breeding. A very compassionate move to take an adult dog as no-one wants them, so what do they do with them?7/13/2012 8:59:18 PM
Actually yes, it is common for all white Iggies to have problems with hearing, if your wanting a white one, then I suggest getting one with a little color in him/her, so they have less of a chance to become deaf.3/3/2012 7:10:14 PM
I introduced my IG to my husbands Chocolate Lab 3 years ago. He is a male and she is female. They get along prefect together. Hope your two will receive each other well. 1/8/2012 4:20:57 PM
Our IG just loves our Rhodesian Ridgeback and they play together all the time. However, the IG is scared of the poodle!7/13/2012 9:01:13 PM
Take your Italian Greyhound out for 2-3 walks a day. It helps them. Plus IGGY'S love to run and are very energetic! Get her spirits up with some special treats. She should only get like 2-5 treats a week and not daily. Like 2 on Monday one in the morning at night and then other days the same. But only do this every other week2/20/2012 2:42:20 PM
Try paper training your greyhound. Confine him to a room with a baby gate and paper the entire room. Put his crate in the room without the door on. Feed him in the crate, put toys in the crate. Leave water out at all times. He will pick an area outside the crate to eliminate. Shrink the paper to that area gradually. Leave paper there or put a litter box down. That way if he goes in the house, he has a designated area to do so.10/18/2011 10:00:26 PM
It might be separation anxiety. Is your IG near you at night? Mine does sleep with us and she likes to burrow under covers. It is endearing. During the day when I am at work, my Bella is kept in the tiled laundry room with a doggy diaper pad down because she gets frantic when I leave for the day even when I try leaving with as little commotion as possible. you can get the pads at target or walmart. 12/23/2011 2:16:50 PM
It is a psychological problem and I have looked into it deeply. IG'S are very sensitive. Please refer to the comments on over protecting and over affection.7/13/2012 9:03:06 PM
IGs are very wary of children, but once introduced, they will be very affectionate.3/3/2012 7:12:06 PM
Italian greyhounds are best with older children.4/22/2012 9:55:43 PM
Adult dogs are not as fragile as they may appear. This dog can be high-strung and timid if they are over protected, and do not receive enough exercise, including a daily pack walk. Italian Greyhounds do best in a quiet household, although they do get along well with children and other dogs and cats, so long as the humans around them display leadership. In a stressful situation, do not try to reassure the dog by stroking or cuddling, as this intensifies the stress in the dog. In the dog world, when a dog is in an unstable state, and you try and give him reassurance with affection, the dog sees you as being in a weaker state than his own. This intensifies the instability. You need to give off a stronger, more stable energy the dog can feed from. This dog needs you to be his pack leader. Dogs who are babied, and over protected will be snappish if they are frightened. Do not allow your little dog to develop Small Dog Syndrome, where the dog believes they rule the home.7/19/2011 5:02:08 PM
It should say their birthday, breed, maybe parents, color, weight, height, personality, breed group.7/19/2011 5:03:02 PM
I havent owend an Italian greyhound yet but i do know that they are very prone to breaking legs especially as puppies, for instance you should not let them on any furniture until about one and a half years5/9/2011 12:28:24 PM
Be aware that Italian greyhounds bones are very fragile and easily broken. Make sure they don't hurt themselves. This is their biggest major health concern. 4/22/2012 9:56:58 PM
Italian Greyhound's can live up to 15 years, I'm not sure what the avearge is though.5/30/2011 1:55:42 PM
I've never had problems with my italian greyhounds and cats. As far as housebreaking is concerned, it is hard to train them, but possible. It took probably a year and a half to house train my first, now he is absolutely perfect. They just take a lot of time and patience, but they are truly a unique breed.5/20/2011 4:40:08 PM
because yours is a mix with a lab... that's different.4/20/2012 3:03:23 PM
I had my IG which I purchased from a private owner when she was 6 mos. old litter trained using newspaper and a tupperware (plastic) box. It was very easy to train her, but it became old because of having to change the paper countess times a day. When I decided, after a long period, probably 2 years, not to have her litter trained anymore, she easily adapted to doing her business outside. Surprisingly easy!!!!1/19/2011 1:59:08 PM
Italian Greyhounds can live up to 15 years on average. There is no such thing as a miniature italian greyhoud however.5/27/2011 2:15:27 PM
The Italian Greyhound is one of the easiest dogs to groom. All that is needed to keep the fine, silky coat gleaming is a rubdown with a piece of toweling or chamois. Only bathe when absolutely necessary. After bathing make sure the dog is thoroughly dry and warm. Trim toenails regularly. This breed sheds little to no hair.7/19/2011 5:03:47 PM
An Italian Greyhound cannot be brindle because a pure bred Italian Greyhound does not carry the brindle gene. If you see a brindle I.G., it is not pure bred.12/7/2010 4:08:19 PM
If you saw one that was brindle, it was most likely a Whippet or Greyhound, not an italian greyhound.4/2/2015 7:58:30 PM
There is no such thing as a brindle Italian Greyhound. The pup may likely have some whippet in her or some other breed. Whippets and Greyhounds can be brindle in color - but not IG's. This does not mean that she won't make a great pet though - but she is not purebred.5/30/2011 1:58:08 PM
Note: We provide the only safe marketplace for Italian Greyhound breeders to list puppies for sale to rehome their purebred dogs. Breeders listing puppies for sale on Next Day Pets are required to verify their identity for your protection.

Uncovering Watergate, 1972
Five men were arrested in June 1972 for illegally entering the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington's Watergate building. Republican president Richard Nixon denied any connection between the burglary and his reelection campaign. Yet, suspicions lingered. After Nixon's landslide victory in November, the Senate appointed a special committee to investigate the matter.
In televised hearings, the Watergate committee, chaired by North Carolina senator Sam Ervin, grilled key administration figures. The committee soon discovered that Nixon had secretly recorded his Oval Office conversations, and the Supreme Court ordered the president to give these tapes to a special prosecutor. They revealed Nixon's role in the cover-up. The Senate hearings swayed public opinion and helped lead to an impeachment effort in the House—halted abruptly by President Nixon's resignation. The Watergate affair reinforced the Senate's investigative role and—into the 21st century—strengthened its vigilance against abuses of governmental power.

A Single Arm, Neoadjuvant, Phae II Trial of Pertuzumab and Trastuzumab Administered Concomitantly with Weekly Paclitaxel and FEC for Clinical Stage I-III HER2-Positive Breast Cancer
Breast - Female
Trial Phase
Phase II
Trial Purpose and Description
Trial Purpose
This research study is a Phase II clinical trial, which tests the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug to learn whether the drug works in treating a specific cancer. Preoperative paclitaxel and trastuzumab are used as standard preoperative treatment for HER2 positive inflammatory breast cancer. In this study, paclitaxel andtrastuzumab are being combined with pertuzumab, which is investigational. Trastuzumab is given for a total of 12 months for the treatment of HER2 positive breast cancer. This study also adds pertuzumab to trastuzumab so that both drugs are given for a total of 12 months this combination is also investigational.
In this research study, we are combining pertuzumab with paclitaxel and trastuzumab as preoperative therapy and will determine the response of the cancer remaining in the breast at the time of mastectomy. In addition, we are combining trastuzumab with pertuzumab for a total of 12 months and we are looking to see whether the combination reduces the chance that the cancer will return.
Another goal of this research study is to determine whether we can develop a way to identify tumors that will respond well to this study treatment. We will do research tests on your tumor tissue before, during and after study treatment. These tests may help doctors understand how the study treatment may work to treat your type of breast cancer. In the future, these tests may help us find ways to help match patients with the drugs most likely to work against their specific tumors before treatment begins.

THOUSANDS of punters flocked to Cartmel Races for the course's biggest meeting of the year, spread over three days.
The traditional Bank Holiday Monday event attracted a crowd of 16,000 to watch the seven races.
Jonathan Garratt, Cartmel Racecourse managing director, said the bookies did not fare too badly.
"I think it has been mixed; they have had some favourites going in but I'm sure they have had ups and downs."
Punters successfully backed legendary racer Tony McCoy, who appeared on Monday.
Yesterday, too, proved a rare highlight for racegoers as three Cheltenham Festival horses went on parade for Veterans Day.
Chief Dan George, who is trained just a mile from Cartmel by Jimmy Moffatt, was joined by Mister McGoldrick and Hussard Collonges.
"We have had a lot of people who are on half-term holiday but it's also the day when racing enthusiasts from all over the country come and have their day at Cartmel because the course is slightly less overcrowded," said Mr Garratt.
Meanwhile, a racing steward became the first person to join an exclusive Cartmel 'club'.
Officiating at Saturday's races signalled a landmark for Colin Vickers — it meant he had visited every racecourse in Britain.
Cartmel Racecourse chairman Lord Cavendish presented Mr Vickers with a souvenir badge, which coincided with the launch of an I've Saved The Best Until Last club.
Anyone completing a visit to all Britain's racecourses with a trip to Cartmel will now receive one of the specially-commissioned badges.
Mr Garratt said: "When I came here I was amazed how many people said they had been to every other racecourse before they tasted the unique delights of Cartmel.
"I realised that they were saving the best until last."
A BLAZE of colour filled the heavens above Kendal Castle as scores of unusually-shaped kites were flown during a two-day festival.
Hundreds of people turned out to see the skies above the central town landmark transformed into a kaleidoscope of colour.
The free event saw kites of all descriptions performing aerial acrobatics. There was a 16ft hippopotamus, flying dogs, super-sized fish and many more, all organised by SmileFactor10 and Kendal United Junior Football Club.
Event organiser Craig Harby, who attends kite festivals regularly, said he wanted to bring the joys of the event to his home town.
"I do it for smiles. If you get someone looking at your kite and smiling then that's why you do it really," said Mr Harby. "It's one of those things you either enjoy or not. It's a peaceful thing flying a kite."
Emma Whitanney, of Windermere, who was at the event with her eight-year-old son, Isaac, said: "It's fab for the area to have something like this. It's a really fun family day out."
There was also a Kendal United two-day car boot sale where a selection of kites, air toys, novelties and balloons were available to buy and fly.
Other activities included a bouncy castle, face painting, children's play area and a BMX track.
Proceeds from the kite extravaganza will go towards Kendal's Junior Football Club.
Anyone with photographs from the day should send them to firstname.lastname@example.com for a chance of winning a seven-foot delta flow tail kite.

I wonder what the synthetics are, as there are SO many super useful synthetics.
During a recent chat with Mr.Pregoni, he introduced me to a new "mysterious" project which has been in the making for the last three years. A new fragrance combining most of the house's hallmarks with 3% of synthetic notes. This is quite revolutionary for a perfumer that made of 100% natural ingredients, his main signature.
"A secret perfume", this is how I'll call it now, takes its inspiration from a bunch of the most successful releases by O'Driù (Linfedele, Laurhum, Lafro and Lalfeorosa) and pairs the main accords of the aforementioned fragrances to synthetic notes. For the first time, the fragrance will not be released in limited batches and will be available worldwide.
"A Secret Perfume" will be launched in early/mid 2013.
For further informations on O'Driù, check out our previous thread here

Great photo, where did that come from?
The thought of the mysterious Signore Pregoni incorporating synthetics is very exciting. I imagine his take would be very unique and I for one look very much forward to trying it.
Yup! I'm intrigued
Im definitely curious. Should be quite interesting.
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
Sketches on the packaging....
Woah! Neat. That's what's on the box?!
This sketch is fascinating. I am going to guess that one of the things that he is going to do is put some "air" into the composition by use of synthetics? I love this direction! I can't wait for this.
MB, those are sketches, projects and ideas on how the bottle/composition should look lile...
here are a bunch of notes from the pyramid: Vanille, Patchouly, Rose, Jasmine, Poivre rose, Santal, Tabac + 1
rose, patchouly, santal, tabac...? I like it already.
You mean no Hangman on the packaging. Now I am dissapointed.
my my, the note pyramid is seems incredibly mainstream/classic. Which might be good though...
All the notes revealed (except one)
Vanille, Mousse arbre, Tonka, Jasmine, Rose, Orange douce, Mandarine, Cannelier feuilles, Tabac, Castoreum, Amber gris, Santal, Poivre rose.
Hmmm. A dry aromatic soft balsamic floral? OR NOT!! Who knows? It is alll very exciting though.
Meantime check this out if you haven't already http://www.odriu.com/ecommerce/store.aspx. You'll notice that the Linfidele 1003 is sold out...... for ever. I'm so relieved that I got mine in time!
Its sounds kind of interesting to me. I wonder what the role of the citrus and rose play(major or minor notes) in the fragrance?
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
I'm looking forward, for the moment i absolutely adore the following: Vis et Honor, L'Infedele 1004, Laurhum, Lalfeogrigio, Laltrove 1001, Linfedele Haiku and JMT. I own furthermore an Xvert's sample but i have to test it yet.
Hi sweet Foustie, spend a nice day in your wonderful Scotland.
I hope laltrove 1001 goes out of stock soon :P
I finally received the "Avantgarde Fetish Perfume" teaser sample (previously known as "A Secret Perfume") and, as usual the packaging is stunning!
I also started testing the fragrance and, right now, I'm leaning towards considering AFP, by far, the best fragrance by Pregoni. This is glorious!!!
The usual lemongrass-dark herbal-vanillish combo of O'Driù is joined by a "bearish" smell. Smells like a bear ... the opening is not as brutal as other previous Pregoni's fragrances. There's some Laurhum in it, some Lalfeogrigio and, yes, even some Leva but somwhat, smells different from any other O'Driù I experienced so far. It's like O'Driù remixed. The main hallmarks are there but they're assembled to result completely different from the original...
The remarkable animalic presence is not disturbing at all. It's a combination between amber gris and castoreum to my nose even if I initially thought it was civet (hence the opening's bearish smell). It provides great warmness and depth and it's joined by rose, woods galore and a moderately sweet vanilla/tonka/cinnamon combo. There's an overall dryness provided by pepper and woods but the composition never walks the line of harshness. In fact, it's smooth and extremely refined while mantaining an overall assertive character.
There's nothing challenging about this fragrance if not the first couple of minutes of animalic-spicy blast. Composition-wise, I find it excellent and, honestly, I've never smelled something like it. There's a funny aspect going on during the evolution: The fragrance opens with a blast to soon settle down to a moderately powerful middle phase. When you're ready to think it's almost gone, it surprises you by starting to tremendously radiate. This final phase (which is the best part of the whole fragrace) goes on and on and on for several hours. The magic of synthetics
Please, don't take this as my review. These are just my random thoughts after my first skin test. As usual with O'Driù, AFP is extremely complex and needs several wearing to be fully understood but, so far, this is a big winner in my book! THIS IS THE ULTIMATE O'DRIU'!
Alfarom, thank you for sharing!
Consider me very intrigued... Any idea when this will be available for sampling/ordering?

Yes, IMO, this is the most satisfying O'Driù to date and I know it's saying quite something. There's something in its drydown that is completely magic. I'm antious for you to get this Drseid!
Hobbes, the fragrance should be launched sometime during 2013. I'm not sure yet when samples will be available but I guess it won't take long.
That large decanter with funnel, atomiser, pipette and all is just the sample????
Thanks Alfarom for your initial review. This sounds like another winner for sure. I can't wait to get my hands on it.
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
I get that bearish vibe from Yatagan too -- it's a super furry wildness that usually comes from lots of castoreum. The rose and vanilla have me feeling a bit skeptical. But sometimes with me it's just a matter of making juice animalic enough for me to dig, especially with some herbs and wood to dry things out. (Lavender and vanilla? Caron puH? Ew! Jicky? Love it.)
Thanks so much for your thoughts Alfa. Sounds like Sgn. Pregoni has once again stepped up his game.
Thanks for the quick update. Looking forward to hearing your full review.
Once question, you mentioned available worldwide in your initial post. Will it only be sold off their website or will it be available from other places.
I'm really looking forward to this one. I have a spot reserved on my shelf for my first O'drui if its as good as alfarom says it is. alfarom has great taste, so I'm excited.
My sample arrived today. Many thanks, alfarom, for arranging that.
I've only had it on my arm for less than an hour, so I'm not going to go into too much detail but I pretty much agree with alfarom's initial impressions. I only applied a solitary drop but it's pretty potent, though not overwhelmingly so. It's smooth, seamlessly blended and there aren't any green accords within the vicinity.
I'm sure many of you are still curious about its aroma, so I will sum it up by saying this: if you love/like Musc Ravageur, you will appreciate this as well. However, it's slightly darker, less sweet and more 'accomplished' than Malle's creation.
Do I like it? Yes.
Would I buy a bottle? I'm not sure but, at the moment, it's a definite possibility.
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
I'm curious as to why the description and instructions on the paper with the sketches and yellow circle haven't been mentioned. Did those of you who have tested it do what it says..?
I'm starting to study and examinating this ultimate gem and have to say that the new experiment leans much on the more modern Leva side than on the one of my "ancient" absolute favorite Vis et Honor (or of the second love of mine Laltrove 1001). Bearish for sure but less mouldy and ancient than the O'Driu' heavyweights in my opinion. On a first approach i detect hints of orangy/ cinnamon (may be ylang- ylang), faint patterns of aromatic herbs, an interaction of saffron, may be cumin and laurel over a woody/vanillic (minimal hints of coffee??) smooth base mastered by a well modulated smokey and animalic (forgive me, also "peessy") presence re- calling more properly a fur/castoreum combo than effectively the civet itself. The orangy vibe is notable and the more the juice discloses its wings the more i catch the peppery presence. The floral patterns are not easy to identify for the moment but frankly i detect more jasmine, neroli and exotic floral elements than rose (for the moment but is possible that my humble nose fails or catchs new impressions later). Possibly i'm not on the right way of the olfactory perception and in this case hope to discover the real identity of nuances and facets in the upcoming days. The juice is brown/dark and warm but not surupy for sure. Just that for the moment my friends, i have the Avantgarde Fetish Perfume on the skin since a too short time to be barely close to the real thing.
- - - Updated - - -
I have to say that the dry down tends to become decidedly smooth, delightful, slightly ambery/woody, highly sophisticated by spices and fruity/floral and barely leathery notes. In this phase the fragrance smells like a more civilized and modern olfactory potion but is still plain that sort of cloud of shadowy edible spices, dust and smoke. A more purified sort of l'Air du desert Marocain jumps vaguely to mind.

I didn't catch the Musc Ravageur vibe and while the comparison still makes a lot of sense to me, after the initial sweetish blast, the fragrance gets a lot more drier in the middle-phase drydown. Leva it's definitely there but only during the few minutes of the opening (at least in my experience). I agree Darvant, there's a LADDM vibe going on somewhere as well as a musky-woody-peppery accord that, somewhat, reminded me of both Monegal's Agar Musk and Memo Shams...but it's just a hint.
Anyway, I'll give it more full wearings in the next few days and will surely keep in mind your pretious thoughts Darvant and Trebor.
I did receive the parcel today. The presentation is first rate, of course. I will admit Im lousy at reviews but this seems like its going to be a winner. Ive put just a drop on the top of my hand 5 hrs ago and its still very present. I agree that the opening is somewhat like Musc Ravageur without any sweetness.
At 5 hours(or so) an amber presence makes itself known. This is really nice.
One common thing Ive noticed about the scents Ive tried from Mr Pregoni is just how "fresh" they are. They give me the impression they were justed mixed and poured for you.
It'll get the full day treatment tomorrow for sure. Ill have more once I give it a full wearing.
Thank you Alfarom for your assistance.
Regards Rex
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
I don't understand why I don't receive notifications when someone posts in this thread....ARGH!
I hadn't bothered to read the copy in the photograph above. If you haven't, I suggest you do, if you want to learn what the "Secret" behind the concept of this fragrance is. Hilariously appropriate color scheme and letter emphasis.
Pregoni is actually doing what other perfumers claim to do. I wish him a long career -- he will be seen as a true maverick in the perfume history books.
In fact, I now declare that O'Driu's latest is the first postmodern perfume.
I guess I'll have to "drink the koolaid" and actually give this experience a shot. You only live once. To be continued . . . ahhhhh that's better. What a relief, to have a perfumer in the world of this conceptual caliber.

I received my sample yesterday and gave it an initial go on skin last night (sans the secret ingredient). I have no idea if adding the "secret ingredient" really improves the composition or it was just meant to be provocative copy, but the fragrance without it is very complete despite its absence, IMO.
The trademark O'driu culinary herb combo found in most of the other O'driu releases is definitely here right at the open and well into the heart notes, but they are toned down substantially below the already lowered level used in another one of O'driu's more recent releases, Linfedele Haiku. I am beginning to see a trend here but with that said, this release is certainly not sanitized and I would bet there is a good deal of real castoreum in it as well, as I get a nice animallic vibe early-on, without it going overboard or becoming distracting. Probably the best surprise for me was the extremely well-done rose note similar to the brilliant one found in my favorite O'driu composition Lalfeorosa appearing in the early heart that never overpowers the herbs and animallic aspects, but blends in perfect harmony with the other notes through the scent's development giving the composition superb balance without losing its complexity. Projection is really excellent, but longevity despite the use of its small amount of synthetics, just about average (6-8 hours on my skin).
I am still getting a full feel for the composition (especially the later parts) so these are just initial impressions, but I find the composition on the whole extremely wearable and highly accomplished, melding my favorite aspects of all the prior releases into one. Not too shabby indeed! So while the "secret ingredient" might have gotten folks to take notice, IMO it is the vision and amazing technical skill of Pregoni who is at the top of his already strong game here that has highly impressed me with this one and I look forward to being able to purchase it next year... I could definitely see this becoming my new favorite from the house. Great stuff indeed.

Is this a prototype for a new EPT? or EDP
It was a calculated risk. Unfortunately, I'm bad at math.
a 3D rendering of the actual commercial bottle of SECRACTION
His bottles are the best . . . hands-down
Alfa - thank you soo much for arranging this.
I'm still digesting this so I won't comment too much yet but I do understand the references to MR and LADDM. There is the strong herbal kick of other O'Driu fragrances + cinnamon too. Very nice.
front side 3D rendering....
Laph, I understand both the receferencies as well (MR for the cinnamon-musky vibe and MR for the balmy aspect) but I still preceive the overall vibe of this fragrance as strikingly different from either. It has an extra kick to it that's almost subliminal in this case yet extremely striking, the O'Driù signature.
Fabulous design. The name? Secret....secretion....action....attraction, secret action?
I think that Mr Pregoni's creative mood is getting darker.

Oil rose to a nine-month high in New York after Iran said it halted some crude exports and investors bet that fuel demand will increase as Europe moves closer to bailing out Greece. Futures climbed as much as 1.9 percent for a fourth day of gains, the longest rising streak since December. Iran will supply crude to "new customers" instead of companies in the U.K. and France, the oil ministry's news website, Shana, said, citing Alireza Nikzad Rahbar, a spokesman. Prices also advanced as European finance ministers prepared to meet to discuss a 130 billion-euro ($172 billion) aid package for Greece, the country's second rescue in less than two years.
