My mother makes a candy out of the white part of the orange (the stuff we usually throw away). She cooks that with some sugar, vanilla, spices, and hint of liquor (and lots of love) and lets it...

A gourmand rose scent. It starts with a blast of candy in the opening, accompanied by a light citrus touch which fades rather quickly, then I get a lot of sweet things (vanilla, cocoa, ripe...

Coze, to my nose smelled very much like the heart of Piper Nigrum with a dirty ashtray note.
I love Piper Nigrum, therefore; I would have to say that I enjoy Coze except for that dirty ashtray...

a new leather interior, oh, Biff just spilled his 16 oz Bud all over the seats and carpet. goodbye scent of leather.
completely nauseating and very strong. you'll feel like that pile of melting...

Very gourmand to my nose: especially in the opening the sweet fig note is really edible and just wrong on my skin. I like figs and fig scented candles but this is way too realistic to be worn as a...

this one started very similar to Frapin on me ...but quickly turned nauseatingly jammy and yucky on me. add leather to this already stinky concoction and forget about it....nasty nasty nasty....

When I first tested this perfume I went back to Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Ylang and Vanilla for reference and contrast. After all many of the notes were similar, however the scents could not be more...

I was so excited to try this after reading the notes so I absolutely delighted in the blast of candied roses that greeted me upon first application. My second whiff uncovered fizzy sherbert and jam...

What a remarkable gourmand fragrance. This is the third Parfumerie Generale fragrance I have tried, the others being Brulure de Rose and Iris Taizo, and I was expecting to like it the least. I do...

I was so excited to smell Iris Taizo but I’m afraid it doesn’t live up to my hopes. To me it smells very much like Refresher sweets. My mother detected a bit of onion in it. It gives me a slight...

On first spray Brulure de Rose smells like ginger snaps to my idiosyncratic nose. This accord disperses and a metallic rose blooms. I don’t know where they’re growing these metal roses – in some...

Ah, the mysteries of skin chemistry. The notes and reviews sounded right up my alley, and I eagerly anticipated my decant. Upon application, I was devastated. Initial blast: unappealing burnt...

A very wearable iris, without excessive earthiness, dryness or powder. It is mixed with woods, resins and some honey/vanilla in the drydown. What I love in the PG perfumes I tried to far is that...

Light and close to the skin yet long lasting. Less zesty, woody and masculine than Hyperessence Matale; the black tea note is allowed to be more dominant and you can detect its slight smokiness. I...

It's 1985. I'm in my local album/head shop trying to pick out a Clash album. The hippie that runs it is burning some cheap-smelling fruity incense. I am wearing a brand new Wilson's leather...

Dark, peppery, dry and dirty. The sweetness in this is a dry and dusty undertone; it is not at all cloying. The pepper smells like a hot red pepper, almost like the pepper in CdG Harissa. I,...

Oh I do like this. The opening is lovely and invigorating, if a touch too masculine for my liking. It has soft cedar notes and supposedly jasmin (although I can't really detect it). I guess the...

I don't tend to like gourmand scents on me but I recognize this is a wonderful creation. The initial caramel outburst is strong but not unpleasant and it soon fuses with coffee, hazelnut and...

A sweet and jammy rose. Can you imagine what a chocolate covered rose topped with a teaspoon of berry jam and dusted with confectioner's sugar would smell like? *I* wouldn't exactly bite into it...
