"This is a real, local, New York railroad-track fragrance," Rahme said. "Eighty percent of the notes come from plants and flowers that grow on the High Line."
But as much as New Yorkers may love grazing weeds, purple love grass and oak, many had doubts about wearing them.
"Gee, I hope it's not based on some of the dog poo that lies around here a lot of the time," said Gretta Baker-Allen, 27.
An inspired Thomas Verlofski, 24, said, "Maybe I'll design an after-shave based on the smell of the public toilets in Penn Station. I'm sure that would be a best-seller."
I just moved into a gorgeous, well-renovated two-bedroom apartment in the East Village and would like to rent the spare bedroom out to someone by March 1. The apartment has a great layout, real windows in every room including bathroom, kitchen and living room, lots of sunlight throughout, and a full bathroom w/tub. The spare bedroom is lovely and fits a full-size bed, small desk and chair, cabinet, and it has a closet in it with overhead storage space. This room is currently fully furnished but can come unfurnished. It has a large window, great light and exposed brick and the entire apartment has gorgeous brand new hard-wood floors.
I have two cats, so cat-friendly people only please. I am female, 30-something, friendly and social, very chill. This place is for someone looking for an airy, light, sunny apartment in a very well-kept old East Village building. It’s on 4th street, which is a great block, and is a couple blocks from the F/V trains and a 10 minute walk from the L train. Lots of bars, restaurants, cafes, shops, etc if you don’t know the area, but also it is a quiet and lovely street. The apartment is in the back of the building so no street noise. It is super cute. Please get in touch if interested.

The buyer purchased the 2,982-square-foot building, which features about 2,400 additional square feet of air rights, as an investment property and plans to construct additional floors, according to Phillip Huang, a senior associate at Massey Knakal.
"I think that those smaller deals are just getting a ton of interest now," he said, adding that the site, located on the fringes of the East Village next to large housing projects, generated about 10 offers in two months on the market.
With properties selling for "under a million and a half, $2 million, you get a lot of people who probably were looking at residential [units] and now they're looking at some cheaper buildings," Huang added.
