Wow. Can't wait for cooler weather to give this a proper test-drive. Typically anything gourmand -- or just plain sweet and cloying -- gives me a raging headache and turns my stomach. This is...

Oh boy! Rich caramel toffee, hints of coffee, cream, spice, toasted nuts and a base of sweet, woodsy goodness - I am so in heaven! One of my very favorite winter scents; very foody, but a dark,...

After the much-reported over sweet blast of gooey opener, Aomassai dries down to a woody, ambery base that's gorgeous. I would own this already if it weren't so expensive and if it didn't smell a...

WHOA ~this is a strange one. Don't just judge it from the initial sniff --- it opens extremely sweet like molasses & caramel. Then Vicks Vapo-Rub or some other type of linament note creeps in...

Hhhmmmm... I'm really on the fence with this one. While I'm a lover of "gourmand" type scents in general this one is a tad too foody for me. At first I got an in your face blast...

I wasn't entirely sure about this one on initial application; I loved the creme brulee-like scent of burnt sugar, and the coffee note, but I caught as well the scent of licorice, which I really...

Ah, the mysteries of skin chemistry. The notes and reviews sounded right up my alley, and I eagerly anticipated my decant. Upon application, I was devastated. Initial blast: unappealing burnt...

I don't tend to like gourmand scents on me but I recognize this is a wonderful creation. The initial caramel outburst is strong but not unpleasant and it soon fuses with coffee, hazelnut and...

I'm a lover of gourmand scents, and I like them as complex as Frapin and as simple as Serendipitous. But this one is vastly different. Aomassai is sumptuous, delightful, grown-up, and enthralling -...

After purchasing a sample on Luckyscent, I have to admit, the top note is definately strong and it has a hint of hazelnut and syrup, but overall it has a musty smell that just doesn't sit well with...

The first burst of Aomassai is pure caramel syrup, which almost had me reaching for the soap and sponge. Luckily, the Attack of the Giant Caramel fades within the minute, to reveal a startlingly...

This is one of the very best scents from PG IMO, an impressive perfume house to begin with - they have yet to make a bad perfume. It starts off sticky and sweet, smelling of hazelnut, caramel and...
