Baroque but a little austere, too. For a woman with a studied composure and measured flare-- a faded grand dame with a heavy heart. Big and seamless.

If I didn't try this scent on myself at Aedes, I would have sworn that I was trying on a completely different scent. My reaction is almost identical to Dana's - it almost immediately turned sour...

Vanille Tonka sounded just right for me, since I love vanilla and tonka in my perfumes. This just didn't measure up at all to my high expectations. This is a unique scent, but a bit too spicy and...

Wow, just goes to show how dif. chemistry is! I was surprised by people who thought that this was "bitter" or "masculine". Are we trying the same perfume? This smells very much like tea on me....

I ordered a sample just in case I didn't adore it as everyone else does here. THANK GOODNESS! It's a really strong fragrance. It heavy like Shalimar but a different scent... not my cup of tea.

My first try of PdN. Very, very disappointing and not at all what I had hoped for.

What an awsome scent! I am absolutely blown away by the cool, almost icy sweetness which morphs slowly into a truly splendid cedar/jasmine blend. Of all the PDN fragrances I've tried (Carre d'As...

I'm not usually a fan of rose scents, but I really do like this one. It is the only one that makes me actually feel like I'm walking through a garden and smelling the flowers themselves - both...

Absolutely gorgeous!

I love it too. Glad to know the name means "Just a Dream", because it really does fit. I love the combination of the florals and the monoi. Makes a very nice change from your typical floral with...

Juste Un Reve is THE BEST!!!! Read all the other ladies reviews, they do better telling about this scent than I will. I bought this due to many raves and many great great reviews and I am more than...

"Strong" is the word for it. Another word? "Serious" A very perfumey and strong tuberose smell . If you want a nice Tuberosa scent, try "Fracas", by Robert Piguet. Maybe, I could give 4 lipsticks...

Nice vanilla scent. Nothing spectacular. Probably not worth the cost.

"Syrupy" is the best way to describe this, as others have said. Fruit Loops syrup. Very sweet, very fruity, and dare I say it... it smells cheap. The dry down was no better. I got no vanilla, no...

This is the new hg for my dh. I got a sample for me and promptly decided it's just too manly. So, of course, I passed it right along to my dh. Not only do he and I both love it on him, he is...

I'm not going to expound on about the notes etc....enough of that has been done below and quite accurately and beautifully. It amazes me that this is not talked about more than it is. I hardly ever...

Balkis is a sophisticated sweet fragrance. Opening with a raspberry note that has the concentrated sweetness of a liqueur, after 1 hour, it manages to sustain this intense sweetness. Hours later,...

The best part of Odalisque is the very fresh and heady top. I have never encountered a lily quite like it. The closest way I can describe it is as an uncharacteristically creamy lily of the valley....

I have to laugh as I read the reviews, some have described this as "clean", "like my grandmother's house" and "like a dentist's office" -- Not to me! To me, this is SEXY. I mean it! ;-) It just...

This is lovely, and when I got my sample a few weeks ago I was sure I'd be buying the full bottle, but lately when I wear it I just keep thinking of root beer. Maybe cream soda. With its sparkling...
