The other reviewers are right. This is a leather frag in the Tabac Blond trad. Although at times the leather smells a bit like rubber, it's very much leather and tobacco and birch tar. I bought...

Went on as a basic, sweet Mysore sandalwood. Very linear and as I don't like Mysore sandalwood, I had to scrub.

I've tried a lot of amber fragrances, and this was the only one that seems balanced just right. Some of the other ones smelled good at first, but then got irritating after a while. This one...

Very interesting frag, but weird at the same time.
Let me say for a start, that the ones that are deemed to be the basenotes came stright and upfront to my nostrils: it was a blast of cinnamon...

Well, I'm sorry but Luca Turin was right.
This is a green spicy vetiver, 100% masculine (and the frag is marketed as feminine).
So spicy, too many BBQ spices for my taste -estragon, thyme,...

I'm only writing this to snarkily correct Luca Turin, who was clearly suffering from olfactory fatigue(or dementia) when he reviewed Shaal Nur in "Perfumes the Guide". Luca called this a "warm...

Gomma is beautiful. It starts as a leather, a fairly wet, musky leather with a slight tint of dirty hair. The dirty hair blessedly fades, and it begins to warm into a more herbal leather -- I'm...

Etro’s Shaal Nur is a dark oriental fragrance whose semi-acrid top note reminded me of Estee Lauder’s style of perfume – Youth Dew in particular. I also caught fleeting whiffs of saffron and amber...

First spray is alcohol! But soon thereafter, it's almond with vanilla and cinnamon red-hots. Yummy! If "one-dimensional" means that a fragrance doesn't change during the wearing, then Etro...

Whew! This really does smell like the damp, moldy crypt of a medieval church. I can smell the damp pages of old books and the residue of centuries of incense. Bach's Toccata and Fugue in D-minor is...

I wanted to try this scent for a long time. All of the wonderful descriptions of monks and libraries really piqued my curiosity. I recently swapped for it and received a decant. Now, I am by no...

I'm not a big fan of incense, but I do love Etro for its very chic, elegant reputation. Plus, I was looking for a soft, not too offending incense fragrance to add to my fragrance library, just in...

Wow, my impressions of this don't seem to match any of the previous reviewers. To me, this is a comfort scent -- creamy almost rice-pudding-like with the spiciness of mace and cinnamon on a base of...

It does have a scent that can easily be interpreted as mildew. If you take a handful of raw myrrh resin and press it to your nose, you'll detect the same notes. On my skin, this smells exactly like...

This fragrance starts off as a soft cherry scent, not at all play doh on me. After an hour it has become sweeter and reminds me of baby powder scent mixed with almonds.

I got a sample of this from a really nice saleswoman who was trying to help me with picking a nice, fresh summer scent. I can see how this is able to fullfill ones needs in that direction...but...

Shoot....another eewww. Where's the amber? I'm getting a strangely scented lemon thing.

To be candid, Gomma turned out much better than expected. The last Etro I tried was the singularly frightening Anice and moreover, the name "Gomma" sounded a bit like something like a creature from...
