Advantages: great value for money and excellant staying power Disadvantages: may not be to everyones liking due to strength of scent
Having purchased a bottle of LouLou a couple of weeks ago while on a tight budget and needing a new bottle of fragrance, I was pleasantly supprised at the scent considering that it only cost me £10.
LouLou has quite a strong fragrance in my mind which I suppose may not be to everybodies liking, but is great if you like a perfume that lasts. After one spray the scent lasted all evening, unlike certain other perfumes which have cost me four times as much, and I have had to re spray every half an hour. Because of this the bottle lasts a much longer time saving you even more money.
The scent is hard to describe, exept that it is not floral or fruity but more musky i suppose.
The main draw back to this is that the bottle and packaging of the fragrence look very plain and old fashioned in my opinion ...
Advantages: A superb balm for aches and pains Disadvantages: its a bit smelly!!
Tiger Balm was the brainchild of a Chinese Herbalist many years ago. The balm was originally formulated for the Chinese Emperors to use.
After the herbalists death one of his sons travelled the East accompanied by a tiger (A symbol of strength and vitality in the East) selling the balm wherever he could.

The balm can be bought in two strengths, the Red Balm which is extra strong and the White Balm which is regular strength, you can also buy a Tiger Liniment oil to use for massage purposes.
The balm contains camphor which has a really pungent smell, many ...

Advantages: a couple of decent songs Disadvantages: too much avearge material and average production
Arguably the least regarded Lou Reed album, Mistrial just seems to receive indifference from most people. It doesn't upset anyone, like Metal Machine Music did, nor does it excite audiences in the way that Transformer did.
Mistrial consists of ten average songs, played competently, sung ok, and produced ok. And that's about it. There's nothing that really stands out, the resolutely 1986 production utilises very basic drum machines for the first and last time in Lou's history, and everything sounds rather boomy and upfront, but hollow and lacking in substance.
The ttle track at least features a cracking melody, but Mama's Got A Lover, whilst not a bad song, sounds like a bad Lloyd Cole copy. A rather bizarre achievment sounds like a bad copy of someone who sounds like a bad copy of Lou Reed.
"Video Violence" has a sparky sound but ...
