The citrus category is my personal favourite. This smells so much like 4711 upon spray, which I love but very short lasting. However this fragrance, upon drying down takes a nice twist to an orange...

This is a nice green one, but I would not advise anyone to buy without testing or to buy after a short sniff at the top notes. These are beautiful as a fairytale - but be careful, because there...

I smelled honeyed carnation at first. Mmm. Fresh carnation, warmed up with yummy clove and cinnamon spices, and a liberal touch of rose. I guess that makes it a floriental. No powder at all. ...

All I get from this scent is basil.
Maybe I'm just hungry.

I'm not a denizen of the perfume board, so you'll have to excuse me if this review isn't particularly technical.<br><br>I bought Soda on a whim the other day from Mecca Cosmetica after spending my...

Kyoto is a dry, woodsy scent of cedar and cypress (and teak oil, according to the notes) combined with Japanese incense (which I have never smelled, but NOT frankincense or nag champa like). Some...

I was hoping for more, I suppose. This is certainly an evocative scent, one that really brings me back to my Catholic school days! However, it remains a very flat wood scent on me. I don't even...

Gingerbreadgirl nailed it: citronella, Deep Woods Off, bad camping trip.
Plus, it had zip staying power on me (thank god; saved me a trip to the sink to wash it off). Not horrible, but not great...

I hated this on me; LOVED IT on my husband. Very masculine scent. It made me want to jump his bones. That's why I'm giving it 4 lippies.
First something musty, but not a bad musty; like a...

Wow, this is a truly stunning fragrance. If you can get past the church associations and just experience it as a scent, it becomes even more amazing--cold, smoky, almost acrid at first...but then...

Don't get me wrong, this isn't an easy scent to love. And believe me, I didn't for a long time. I acquired this over a year ago from a lovely MUA'er when I was at the height of my CdG obsession. ...

This perfume is quite unusual and starts off smelling like hair spray and something sticky and sweet, like a glazed donut almost. It does have sugary vanilla-esque notes, but then it morphs into...

I love CdG Series 3, but especilly this scent. An incense-obsessive, it's smells just like my grandmother's eastern orthodox church (frankinscense & myrrh). Also, the packaging is minimal, so not a...

This is far, far easier to wear than Avignon, and yet I prefer Avignon over this. Zagorsk is a very clean, almost sterile incense smell for me. It smells lovely, but it is neither challenging nor...

The first spritz is Deep Woods Off bug spray, campfire, and just the faintest hint of diesel exhaust from a nearby highway. If this was a CB I Hate Perfume it would be called "Yellowstone July...

I got a sample of this through swap. Its definitely a type of incense that is associated with being in a church. This is strong and comes out really pungent on me, so this scent is more for...

I have no luck at all w/CdG. They all smell chemically and yuck.
This was all panty liner scent and public bathrooms on me. Cloying and stinky. No incense.

Shockingly peppery right out of the bottle with a blinding blast of greens – think freshly chopped coriander and fennel - that quickly mellows into something more contemplative and timeless....

This evocative fragrance takes me back to my mother’s native Finland: a spice aisle in a brightly lit K-Market, close enough to the waxy oranges to smell mulled and fruity; the smoke of dried wood...
