well the geranium from madagascar arrived earlier this week and yesterday i had the chance to smell it. i was very happy to find that it is very similar to the bourbon geranium that i've loved for so long and which now i can't get.
the madagascar variety has a slightly richer "green" edge to it without so much of the sharp bite of the bourbon. still it's close enough so that CB93 (which i wear all the time) will smell pretty much the same.
i think i'll still miss the bourbon though and will probably put the tiny bit i have left into storage for posterity...
