Guy in elevator, after several odd looks: What are you wearing?
Me: Beg pardon?
Guy: What perfume are you wearing?
Me: Uhm, something by BPAL.
Guy: It smells FANTASTIC.

For my reference, I'd dabbed on the dregs from a bottle of Nanny Ashtoreth I'd gotten secondhand as an empty. Lab description:

She wore a knit tweed suit and discreet pearl earrings. Something about her might have said nanny, but it said it in an undertone of the sort employed by British butlers in a certain type of American film. It also coughed discreetly and muttered that she could well be the sort of nanny who advertises unspecified but strangely explicit services in certain magazines.

Middle Eastern flowers, amber, honey, blood red-berries, whip leather, and polished paddle wood.
