Lasting power is phenomenal...I do get roses, but they're the lab created kind. Very plasticky, sharp and synthetic. I wouldn't mind this as an air freshener...as a perfume? Nope.

Very creamy coconut blended with gardenia - I don't pick up any other notes besides those two. There's nothing exciting going on with this scent on my skin...it's a quiet sweetness that's more like...

I expected this to be so strong I'd recoil from it, but Black Aoud is not as offensive as I thought it would be. I get leather,rubber, and candle wax all blended together with honeyed rose. I'm...

The opening makes me immediately think "hospital" --- I don't get much floral at all in the beginning. It's all talcum powder covering a layer of Ben-Gay. Giving my wrist another sniff after thirty...

Wow, this is basically a heady tuberose/gardenia mix. It's intoxicatingly rich after the initial aoud whiff burns off and smells very womanly, in an old hollywood kind of way. If you like...

Well, this is a really great fragrance if you're up for a bold one - it's quite assertive. As it begins to dry down it smells to me a lot like BPAL Whip but with the leather amped up. So if you...

This is beautiful. The spices are exquisite -- clove, nutmeg, cardamom. It is sweet, warm, rich. There is almost an amber feel to Santalsliver. The wood is very very subtle and I can't find the...

I guess aoud doesn't agree with me as I couldn't wash this off fast enough.And it really lasts even after scrubbing with soap and water.This smells like what I think poison(drug) would smell like,...

From the other reviews, this fragrance sounds like it might be quite nice in the drydown. However, I would never be able to get there. The top notes were scrubbers for me. Too harsh and...

This is a combination of white florals with sandalwood, vanilla and tonka bean. I generally really do not like white florals; they are way too sweet for me. So I was surprised that I liked this as...

I LOVE this; it's definitely one of my very favorite rose fragrances of all time. However, it's not lonely at the top, because I probably have at least half a dozen rose fragrances that I really...

I don't usually like musky scents, and so I wasn't sure that despite my love of roses, this one would work for me. Surprisingly, I actually DO like it. It's not my favorite of the Montale roses,...

I didn't like this at all in the beginning; there is too much incense and something rather acrid in it. It may be the incense aspect of the oliban, but whatever it is, it's rather rather tangy....

Smells like roses and I'm not sure what else, but the other thing isn't good. I don't know if it's the saffron or the hibiscus, but whatever it is, it's rather smoky and a bit bitter, and so I did...

When you first apply this fragrance, you definitely get a 50/50 mix of roses and sandalwood. I liked the way the combination smelled and thought it was a good balance. Once the drydown rolled...

This is a fine, true rose fragrance to me from start to finish. It's a dark, rich red rose, NOT a tea or china rose. I don't get any wood/aoud from it at all. At the beginning, I did get a whiff of...

I've been looking for true chocolate scent without the sickly sweetness. I bought a sample of this, sadly, it's not what I was looking for. I guess it's not too sweet, but it's not really chocolaty...

When I read LuckyScent's description of this I thought I would love it, but I did not. It smelled like smokey baby powder on me, on someone else I'm sure it might be lovely- but not for me.
