Simply gorgeous! Green, crisp, refreshing, light - everything you want for spring season. Another beautiful Jean Claude Ellena composition.

For as expensive as this smells, I don't think the price is outrageous at all. However, the associations of memories with this scent is ruining it for me. A very close friend of my mother's used...

I feel like volume is just too high on this.
Starts our very much as others have described it - boozy apple pie. A very gourmand sweet smell with notes of apple, vanilla, raisin and bourbon....

I adore this fragrance (I am quite sensitive to scents). The scent is very calming to me. The only other one that I am attached to this much is Burberry Classic.

Nice Work! a lovely light rooty iris witht he same dolorous quality as Iris Silver Mist. Not as complex and not as long lasting, but a lovely everyday fragrance for iris lovers. I much prefer...

Like the other reviewers, I really have a soft spot for Monsieur Ellena and particularly his fragrances for Hermes. Voyage is just as cool, fresh, elegant and superior as Sur la Nil and Après...

Peppery, aldehyde-y, powdery, something too strong.

Describing this one is kind of hard. It has no floral notes, but it remains a very refreshing and exhilarating fragrance. Love the vetiver. It is very uplifting and whenever I wear it, I feel so...

Subtle composition. Twiggy, vaguely smoky, the subdued orris/iris background is quietly rooty without smelling too much like carrots, as orris is prone to. One has the impression of being in the...

This was my summer scent this past summer and will be again next summer. I love the different notes, even the compost. The compost note is remarkable. It doesn't last for more than a few minutes,...

I go floral, oriental, with some kick. This is skanky to me. I guess they call it a "dirty" note. I don't get oranges, leather, or any of the things the great noses below offer. Just arm pits. ...

Upon immediate application this smells a bit aldehydic and vintage. It's very soapy, fresh-scrubbed, and classic. It smells like money. I imagine high-society ladies of the 1950s smelling like...

Upon the initial spray and first five minutes I get a lot of synthetic, alcoholy leather. It then goes through a phase of smelling like peppery water, but the drydown is quite nice, like spicy...

I'm a fan of citrus smells, but need to have some depth with it (like a spicy or woodsy accord). Having read the reviews and descriptions of this popular scent, I was dying to try it. Citrus...

I adore the fragrance. Very unique and perfect for summer. However, it has NO staying power. Zero. It lasts an hour, if you're lucky. So not worth the price, which is such a shame, because it truly...

What??! I have read about this over and over, and I guess I had different expectations. It is beautiful, yes it is. But rather than a garden on the mediterranean, I get a perfect potpourri....
