    OMG! I know this scent has a BAD reputation and hek, it is well deserved. The top notes hit made me keel over and I wanted to scrub the stuff off asap. You have to be patient apparently and so I...

    Edit: tried this again after a long hiatus. I like the dry down, but getting there is a bit too arduous. Demoted a star. Edit: It's cold today and I put a tiny dab of Chergui on one wrist,...

    Notes: vegetal musk, costus, labdanum, ambergris, vanilla, patchouli, ambrette seeds and rose. Opens with a heady blend of musk and ambrette seed. Dewy rose, animalic ambergris and smooth...

    This smells like just like a old lades bad cigarettes breath. Nothing sexy at all. I`m not that kind of woman that just like fresh light perfumes though "Jicky" is the most wonderful fragrance int...

    This was my "test case" after a number of disappointing experiences with musk. After this, the Musk Monster, I can confirm that for my nose, vegetable musk does indeed smell like wet Ivory...

    This is the only fragrance that I was actually afraid to put on once I received the newly acquired bell jar from an E-Bayer. This is definitely NOT the behemoth that others say it is. I found it to...

    This is very close to real wild musk pod which is unforgettably haunting and sweet, but from a passionate amateur perfumista's viewpoint it is pushed over from the musky animalic to the all too...

    I think this is a scent that various with individual body chemistry. After reading so many divergent reviews I ordered a sample. I am the type of person that scents disappear on after about 30...

    I'm on the fence about this one as the first time I sampled it I just got a soft powdery musk. I was really hoping for the raunch that others were describing here. The second sampling gave me a hit...

    When we were in Paris last year, I made my pilgrimage to Serge Lutens shop, and MKK was one of the fragrances I had really wanted to try, based on everything I had read. Unfortunately, it never...

    Just to add my two cents, I agree with all associations for dung here. (Poor Koublai Khan was actually famous for the aquaducts he had built around his cities.)

    Ahhh, assessment of a fragrance...the verdict is completely subjective, and lies between personal chemistry and perception. To me--and ON me--this one is lush. How do I smell to others? Beyond my...
