Janelle-I would imagine ANY scent--even one formulated by the gods themselves--would turn sour to one who's just had a heart attack. That Not exactly a helpful critique you presented to others about Cinnabar: "If you get a heart attack, you may no longer like it."
And Lisa--you say Cinnabar smells "cheap", but then you admit you were hoping it'd smell more like "cinnamon sticky buns". A perfume that smelled like cinnamon sticky buns? Now THAT'D be cheap! By the way, the meaning of the word "Cinnabar" has nothing to do with "cinnamon". Yes, there is a cinnamon note IN the scent, but its name has nothing whatsoever to do with "cinnamon." It's a word that refers to the soil that Chinese lacquer is made out of. Chinese lacquer...the Orient...Cinnabar is an ORIENTAL fragrance...you get the drift, eh?
In my opinion, perfumes have become a little too literal lately. Now we get to enjoy too-literal perfumes as well as too-literal movies, too-literal "books", and too-literal "ideas". Well, I say "Bleech" to THAT.
But Cinnabar...Now there's a great perfume.
