In theory this is a great fragrance - it's well made with high-quality ingredients, and at at first smell seems excitingly incensy without the dusty church overtones. However, once it settles on...

I love many of L'Artisans fragrances, but this is not one. I /should/ love it; it has incense, it's "cold", it's unsweet, and slightly floral. I might be anosmic to some parts of the composition,...

I am sampling this from a sample vial and had a spillage over my hand. My initial thoughts were plain and boring. As 15 minutes have passed the simplicity and cleanliness feeling of this scent is...

The name would imply something smoldering and sexy, but this reminds me of that old commercial for Murphy's Oil Soap, where they use the soap to clean the catholic church. That's what this smells...

I didn't think I would like this, because I usually don't like incense or frankincense fragrances, On the other side, I've approached a bunch of L'AP "floral fragrances" (La Chasse, The pour un...

Ooh, I like this one! The moment I spritzed it on I was transported back to my trips to Ireland as a kid with my parents (my father is from there). The air is clean and a wet and there are cold...

Lovely, lovely incense. I don't find it very seductive, as the l'artisan SAs suggested. It has a soft, comforting quality and has more life and worldly emotion comparing to real church or temple...

The opening smells too "bright" for me; I really didn't like it. About 30 minutes later, I did get a nice incense, altho it wasn't as good as Aedes de Venusta or one that Neil Morris did for...

Hopefully one day, I'll be able to purchase a full bottle of this. I like L'Artisans, they're beautiful, unfortunately most have little staying power or sillage on me. As light and simple as...

I guess I'm not one of the cool kids, because I do not understand the allure of this fragrance, or the popularity it enjoys. To me it smells of lightly incensed lemon, start to finish. No more,...

I have to admit I was intrigued by the name - Passage Through Hell - and therefore with my curiosity piqued I acquired a sample. Because of its name I expected it to smell fiery and woodsy, but...

This perfume reminds me of a shady spot in a secluded garden in the summer. It smells fresh but almost maybe a little dirty. It definitely feels a bit mysterious. A great scent for hot summer days.

Yeah, this is nice, no doubt. But it smells like Avignon (Comme des Garcons), perhaps a bit more wearable. I'm not sure its worth the $$$. It really absorbs into your clothes if you're looking for...

This is a very unusual fragrance, I've not smelt anything remotely similar to it before. It's a melancholy blend of frankinscence, musk and white lily. You can definately smell the frankinscence...

Passage D'Enfer was one of my first niche fragrances. Many incensy perfumes remind me too much of church, and wearing them feels slightly sacrilegious. But not this one. It's a transparent wisp of...

Great "incensy" perfume. Very different. However, count me among those who do not care for the name. That's why I reated Packing Quality as 3.

This is a beautiful, cold, distant lily scent, with an incense note that's not in the least spicy. There are scents that are loud, and out there, and easily described with words, then there are...

(EDT) OMG! This turned to baby poop and lemons on me. Now there's a combo you don't smell every day! No sale. Obviously.
