    Still laughing about some of the descriptions of this scent I read here...I love Les Nereides and think almost every scent they do is nice and the price will keep you off the streetcorner. I've...

    A very nice, spicy, warm fragrance in the topnotes. I did smell the green pepper for one nanosecond, but then it went back to the nice, warm spiceness. It isn't as thick as Parfumerie Generale...

    I find myself craving my sample of this, and I think it will be so good in the summer weather. I don't get any green pepper, any sweetness, and it is way more spice rack than indian food on me (My...

    Sweet? Wow, I really must have odd chemistry because it didn't get like that at all on me. When I tried Oriental Lumpur, I suspected it would be a bit too much for me but I was curious...

    Saffron, curry, sandalwood, a tiny little hint of vanilla, and just a touch of that peppery goodness others have mentioned. I just wrote my PdN Mahajarah review and this is what I wanted it to be....

    Smells like my husband after he's had dinner at an Indian restaurant. Yummy on him, not so yummy on me.

    i'm with chattykathy on this one - it smells like the food cooked by my neighbor from Bangalore. the green pepper is too much and since i don't like the taste of bell peppers at all, the smell...

    A VERY interesting and complex oriental. It goes on quite strong and spicy and dries down to the scent you'd get if you mixed Xia Xiang with a fresh green pepper. It's definitely NOT what...

    Lumpur is very woody and VERY spicy, it almost smells like chili in the end!

    Definitely smells like an Indian restaurant. Unlike the reviewer below, I didn't detect any sweetness in this whatsoever. I didn't find it to be very feminine at all--it reminded me of a soft,...

    I loved this scent. The high-ascorbic-acid plant note I get is not green pepper, though -- it's orange. Indeed, Oriental Lumpur starts out smelling like a spiced holiday pomander, an orange impaled...

    Well, it's interesting to say the least. I did a trial run of this and I just couldn't get past something in it akin to green peppers. I live in multicultural NYC and it is common to smell many...

    Not my specific cup of tea but if you like softly spicy scents, this one is pleasant enough. Notes consist of saffron, curry, nutmeg, sandalwood, vanilla, patchouli. The sandalwood, nutmeg and...
