I don't blame you.. they both have sharp smells that can be a bit

sickening. Dilution should help a bit with the davana (although I assume

you've already diluted it and it hasn't helped?). For the cognac.. eh,

that's just how it smells, I think. The fruitiness is in there, but it's

buried.

We all have scents that we just can't enjoy, of course. I simply can't

appreciate champaca, frex...
