    Very weird, but I love this fragrance. Dark places, incense in the church together with cold marble, dust, vintage...these descriptions come to my mind when trying to define this scent. It's...

    Oh my... I never knew that a fragrance could really be evocative of mildew... b/c that is the strongest note I can detect! Now, as someone very allergic to mold, I don't know if it's...

    I'm having a push-pull, love it-scared by it, type relationship with this fragrance. Like everyone has been saying, it smells like incense and old attics. I really like the smell, but I keep...

    Evocative of majestic Italian cathedrals, wooden chests loaded with ancient treasures, musty books of magick in a deserted library... this is a haunting and unique fragrance full of whispered...

    Not everyone is going to like this one, but I love it. It *is* the scent of old, gently rotting paper---the scent of the antiquarian bookstore where I used to work. Not mildew, exactly---I know...

    I hated this immediately. I think it smells like church during a funeral mass. I was amazed that so many loved this scent. Obviously one to try before you buy as YMMV.

    Wow. Not pretty, but incredibly attractive. Almost mildewy. (Who knew I'd be attracted to mildew?) Sexual in a purely primal way. Evocative of mystery, adventure, suspense, even horror. A...

    On me, the famed Messe de Minuit smelled moldy and like wet wood - not a good thing. I would be embarrassed to wear this fragrance in any venue.

    Very weird. Evoked memories of opening one of my beloved Grandma's old coffers and going through her musty '40s clothes.

    This is not a scent to be worn lightly. A very dense, incensy, and yes, musty, scent, this reminds me of the old cathedrals I saw in Europe. Just wearing it transforms me! This is not a...

    *Wonderful* scent! Everyone below has already done such a great job of describing it, but I've got to put my two cents in as well. You'll definitely have to try this on before you buy the...

    I was eager to sample this perfume after reading the many positive reviews here. Being of the gothic persuasion, I figured it would be a given I'd adore the scent myself. One spray of the fragrance...

    I love this. Intoxicating incense, spice, frankincense, myrrh, vanilla, amber, maybe some sage or cedar - can’t tell for certain as this is complex and has some really unusual notes in it . The...
