Bon Monsieur is a great scent, and I somehow prefer it in the soap version (I have the perfume and the recovery splash). Also always fun to use the River kamisori.

Have a good night!

I was joking with Heather about how Americans can't pronounce 'bon' and 'monsieur'. She can't and, while I think I can, my accent is influenced by French Canadian heritage, and I'm told by some Parisians that I'm barely understandable. Only the French have that level of disdain. I love it! Speaking of France, the Tour de France started on June 29. I love sitting on the couch and watching all those guys suffer. Amazing stuff.

bon

Nasal vowels are hard if you aren't use to them

Monsieur

Normally, French spelling is transparent - but not here. That probably doesn't help, either 😱
