On my skin (Portuguese/Irish/Norwegian) this fragrance is deep, warm, woodsy, and musky. A slight sweetness presents itself in the form of cocoa or chocolate.

Tried a sample of this from LuckyScent and it is pretty much the warm, snuggly, cuddly "everyday" scent I've been searching for. Definitely get the ambergris and benzoin more than anything else on...

Sweet rich resinous myrrh with cinnamon notes and a slight suggestion of flowers. Definitely a perfume, by which I mean it isn't gourmand, soliflore or incense, but it's pretty and rich. Perhaps...

Recently I purchased a set of vintage parfum minis - Miss Balmain was one of them and is my favorite so far. This parfum is so soft and smooth but also has balls of steel. On me it is a nostalgic...

I absolutely love this fragrance, it has replaced Shalimar as my signature fragrance. I love its sweetness and the warm base. My husband loves this on me :)

I can't help but feel happy when I wear this- it works like aromatherapy. The blast of fresh green that I initially get stays prominent throughout (I know, duh, hence the "Green Wind"). Some white...

Top notes are aldehydes, chamomile, asafoetida, mandarin orange, violet, artemisia, marigold, bergamot and lemon; middle notes are nutmeg, carnation, cinnamon, narcissus, pepper, orris root,...

Green honeysuckle with peppery tomato-like leaves. Is there lily in this? If so, it's very faint. It smells like a green garden as envisioned by a perfumer: Green, floral chypre without the true...

I'm surprised that I actually like this. I normally hate this type of fragrance as they seem too cloying and dated but there's something about Ivoire that's so elegant and classy. A bit powdery...

I bought this unsniffed based on a fantastic review of it on Now Smell This (check it out, it's the funniest thing I've read in ages!). Given that it's really inexpensive, it was a great find - I...

Of all my perfumes, this one has the most interesting evolution on my skin. I've never smelled Ivory soap, and Ivoire doesn't strike me as soapy at any stage but it goes through every other...

Definitely unisex and perfect for the hot months. Crisp, sparkling. It reminds me very much of Eau de Reglisse in the peppery ginger feeling. Very nice, but the lasting power on me was poor.

What a little gem! Even though I was discouraged by the reviews here (Nivea cream??? Shampoo???) I purchased it unsniffed, blindly trusting the opinion of the best nose I know - and I am happy I...

Let me preface by stating that I am dyed in the wool chypre girl. I ordered Ivoire sight-unsniffed based on the glowing reviews on P'ville and I am bitterly disappointed. On my (and two other...

This was an unsniffed purchase after reading the Scented Salamander's beautiful review, and it is in every way BETTER than I had hoped for.

Once again, I wonder if all the reviews are referring to the selfsame, apparently reformulated, gruesomely bitter Jolie Madame I recently purchased unsniffed in its current incarnation.

Strange! I can hardly smell this, and sloshed it on my wrists to get any impression at all - yet the response from my dh and ds was "spicy" and "strong". To me it seems to live up to its name -...
