Very unisex, too much for me though. I just smell like a guy--so glad I revisited this as I almost walked out of The Perfume Shoppe in Vancouver with this full bottle based on one spray in the...

First, let me say that Parfumerie Generale is probably my favorite perfume house...all of their fragrances are truly unique, IMO... very different from one another, and totally unlike other...

This fragrance is essentially a tweak on the earlier PG release L'Eau Rare Matale. As BasiaS has noted, Hyperessence Matale lacks the vetiver note in Rare Matale. Strangely, because I am, in...

I love and covet this scent. It is simply fabulous in all respects except maybe the lasting power. However I always hesitate to judge a scent unless I can spray it. I find that this will somehow...

Admittedly, I am a huge floral fan. That being said, Cedre Sandaraque has the potential to be something that I might have like to wear occasionally. When I first put it on, it had an overwhelming...

Add this to my ever growing list of this line's gourmand scents. Notes consist of vetiver, African cedar, Sandarac resin, cereals and pralined amber. I get just the slightest dark notes in the...

If Ava Luxe added a dusting of cocoa powder to her Milk fragrance, it would smell about like Musc Maori. Not-too-sweet gourmand lovers should definitely sample this one.

BasiaS's description below is spot-on. This is a very dry, spicy, somewhat masculine (but still unisex) fragrance. Nothing sweet or cloying about this one. On me, the pepper and cannabis...

In general I'm a MAJOR fan of Parfumerie Generale fragrances, but I must admit that this one is not so good. Unlike some reviewers, I never got a lick of orange blossom or anything sweet or...

My skin usually amplifies sweetness, but with Bois de Copaiba, it does the exact opposite. There is no sweetness at all. Zilch. No orange pulp, ginger or amaretto. Nothing remotely gourmand...

Beautiful. A thoroughly non-gourmand vanilla with an arid, breezy woody floral finish. No obtrusive add-ons like smokey incense or burnt carmelized sugar. Perfect.

A truly wonderful perfume. It starts off with a chocolate top note, but it begins to transform into this nectar-esque perfume and it's sweet, but not overpowering. It has a bit of a woodsy or...

This was a very pleasant surprise after the arrogance and in your face nature of Aomassai that I had experienced not five minutes prior.<p>

Hhhmmmm... I'm really on the fence with this one. While I'm a lover of "gourmand" type scents in general this one is a <i><b>tad</i></b> too foody for me.<p>
At first I got an in your face blast...

Like SL Tuberose Criminelle, this perfume also has a strange opening. On me it is a pungent, strong artificial smell almost like plastic, not entirely pleasant. But then the tuberose emerges, as...
