Curve Connect for Men
Liz Claiborne (2008)

After the first two minutes this turns into a sweet synthetic chemical mess.

Time to hang up on this fragrance.

"Lightness Can'tly Borne
Persistence of Red Claiborne"
Borne upon some thrill

Some distant beauty
Tangent - linearity
Call it what you will.

FrEauTea or FLEauRaL
REaLiTea or NEauRaL
Uone can hardLi say

Smell's just connection
Olfactory reflection
Beauty thr'eau decay.

Uone person's Candy
Another's English black Tea
All and nothing's real

Perfume is perfume
Chemisperception's safe room
How'd it make you feel?

Red plastic wrapper
ClariTea refracts dapper
Visperfumish lie

Curve Metaphoric
L'eau Aqua Allegoric
Y'eau're its reasons Y.

"Where's [lost note 1A]?"
Lost on someone's DNA
Was it ever there?

"Tobacco flower"
Olfactaddition's power
Far beyond the square.

If tonka's write there
And the writer's wood s'eau swear
Wood (s)?he then mislead?

What if the Basenotes
Are not the saving grace notes?
Is to say misdeed?

Thus let the mind walk
Associative cross-talk
Why should this get love?

Pure thought connections
Art collector reflections
Something from above.

Think back to Claiborne
Classy perfume t'was once worn
By a gal I knew

Lady iconic
Thus making Curve ironic
Me without my Bleu.

Words often fail us
Fragrant notes can derail us
Perfume says much more

Choice, change and spirit
Time's grace lets us endear it
Seen in what we wore.

Curve's late Connection
Flanker of lost affection
Captures in a scent

Faint fruity floral
Like fragrant future moral
Words we really meant.

Scent that could not be
When it truly spoke of me
Like equation solved

Random reminder
Time's hints, its thwarts, its blinder
Why we're thus absolved.

Thus find remembrance
Not imagined resemblance
That shall be my Creed

Fragrant forgiveness
Some that-we-all-may-live-ness
Perfume's worthy deed.

Eau sympathetic
Arguably synthetic
This my final call

Worthy Curve flanker
A take-it-to-the-banker
Pyramids and all.

Wow, I'm surprised by all the neg. reviews. I love this little flanker, I think because it is targeting the younger crowd it is seen as "juvenile" or a neophyte's scent.

I really like the way this is a "sparkling" type of citrus along with a cool musk. Definitely for hot weather which my part of the world is experiencing right now.

I got it for CHEAP on ebay, a deodorant and a 1 oz. spray bottle, glad I got it.

Sure, it's no formal or date type of wearing scent, well if the date is not a first one, I can understand using it. Think of this as a summer party and work or school wearer.

No need to get down on this one, enjoy!

I supposed it's not as bad as I once thought, deleting my previous review and now updating it, on an overall still boring fragrance.

Receiving this as a gift from a co worker, in a small half oz bottle size, I thought to give it another try.

I do get the tea note on this go-around, as it's accompanied by a sweet tonka bean, and a little sandalwood. It's smooth and subtle, and kinda sorta just smells like a very soft version of the dry down in Polo Red Extreme. You know, very tonka heavy, with a slight coffee note, ya I actually get coffee in this, in the base. Although most people probably wouldn't get it. I mean, it is what it is, a boring fragrance that would make a great gift for someone, because it's cheap, subtle, and mostly inoffensive. Performance, I get maybe 4 hours, most of which it remains a skin scent.

Also, as for tobacco flower, as far as I know, is that tobacco flower is not a real note or ingredient, it's impossible to find in a fragrance oil, and if it is labeled tobacco oil, it probably really isn't. So I can't say there's any in here, but I can say that there is not even a trace of tobacco smell in this fragrance.

York's Peppermint Patty meets cotton candy. Overly sweet, unrefined; just this side of repellent.

This smelled great for five minutes then turned into something I can only liken to vomit. Seriously. This company should just get out of the fragrance business once and for all.
