I tried REAl and ADDaND where the cross MIELE (never heard of it) goes, so there you go. I knew something was going on with ZODEFENSE, with which I am familiar, TATUMOAL and CLAUDEMOT. I had to think a bit more with HOWOARTH. I also agree with the signature scent nonsense; that sort of thing should be more organic, say that a certain hotel always offers freshly-baked cookies at check-in. Artificial AROMAS are never welcome. Despite my troubles, I thought this was a very well-done and enjoyable puzzle.Huygenshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14539030936919012404noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7869983234842507044.post-25066269249305842012020-03-04T14:34:16.655-05:002020-03-04T14:34:16.655-05:00Very cool puzzle!

Yay me for getting the gimmick at the reveal...and for resisting the urge to try to squeeze the "appropriate" letters into the the TATUM O'NEAL squares...my first indication that something was going on. <br /><br />Nice picture of ONE of my favorite ladies -- Gloria SWANSON -- Horace. And count me in with you over the lousy idea of "signature scents."Kelly Clarkhttp://aldenclark.comnoreply@blogger.com
