I was scepitical about all the positive reviews and feared being disappointed, but I love it. Everything from the smell, the look, the feel, the adaptability of it and the packaging. I can't wait so personalise it and see it worn to add even more character to the leather. Very, very excited.

You very quickly get attached to this journal - just holding and using it is such a personal experience. Cover is tough and the refill system, while simple, gives huge flexibility. Problems though: rear knot and top fastener annoying when near the back or on a table, and it just won't lie flat.

If you want to buy a notebook brand new, but want it to look like you have owned it for years, this is the one. I use mine at work, to keep notes for jobs pending, work in progress, taking phone message etc. Just use one note book for each of the above, and a few post-it notes.

I have been using Moleskine for over 9 years, but this one definitely has a touch. Flexible system, wonderful paper, very neat size to fit anywhere. Highly recommend.

A notebook epic enough to sidetrack a meeting with notoriously boring executives for 45 minutes while they oohed and aahed, caressed the cover, twanged the elastics and sampled the paper. Sure, a legal pad works. But why oh why would you go there when you could go Midori. Embrace the upgrade.

Something about it says, built for a gentlemen, or suave, sophisticated worldly travelers. The inserts are a must, to try it's customization possibilities. There are less expensive and possibly far more practical notebook solutions. But to spoil yourself or a friend. You can't go wrong.

This notebook is very simple but amazingly beautiful. I love how the cover becomes all scratchy with use, has an old world explorer feel to it. I use it as a 'road journal' together with a monthly diary, so I always carry it with me to write my thoughts on the move as well as check my schedule.
